Job description
A well-established private behavioral health practice in Northern Virginia providing psychotherapy and evaluation services to children, adolescents, and families. Hourly fee-for-service compensation with significant tiered quarterly bonuses at set clinical-hour thresholds, and a caseload built to your strengths rather than just what's open.
One structural difference changes the math: this is a W2 practice, not a 1099 setup. The practice pays the employer share of payroll tax, and the benefits a 1099 practice legally cannot offer (malpractice coverage, retirement matching, health insurance) come with the seat. Many clinicians at other practices pay their own license fees and malpractice out of pocket. Here those are covered.
Clinicians here tend to stay: several have built careers spanning eight years and beyond, with a few now well past the decade mark. That's not an accident. Caseloads here flex as a clinician's life does, whether that means scaling back for a growing family or ramping back up later, and the practice shows up for its people when life gets hard. That investment shows up in training too: in-house didactics, CEU support, and a tuition-funded Sabbatical benefit once you've built tenure here, for clinicians who want to go deeper into a specialty rather than stay generalist.
This is a seat for someone who wants a long-term home in a group practice. If you need a strictly 9-to-3 schedule, it isn't your seat: kids are in school during the day, so afternoon and early-evening hours are where this caseload lives.
A licensed psychologist who genuinely works both sides: psychotherapy and psychological evaluation with children, adolescents, and families
A clinician who wants colleagues, not an island: weekly staff meetings, real case consultation, someone to pop in on after a hard session, an annual team retreat, and a place where real community and friendships, laughter included, come naturally
A clinician who wants stability: a W2 paycheck, real benefits, and referrals that arrive without you marketing yourself
Strengths-based, evidence-based orientation (CBT or integrative preferred)
A clinician with a specialty to bring, or one you want to build: eating disorders, trauma, substance use, whatever it is. Tell us, and there are real dollars behind training toward it, not just a nod of encouragement
Virginia license fee reimbursement with no waiting period; other-state and PsyPact fees reimbursed case by case
Matching Simple IRA retirement plan, 1:1 up to 3%, after one year
$60,000 to $190,000 per year, scaling with licensure level and clinical hours; full-caseload licensed clinicians (18+ hours) typically earn $120,000 or more
Hourly fee-for-service plus tiered quarterly bonuses, with bonus eligibility tied to clinical productivity, meeting attendance, and referral-source collaboration
Access to health, dental, and vision insurance
CEU reimbursement up to $1,000 per year for licensed clinicians, available after two years with the practice
A Sabbatical Training benefit worth up to $8,000 in tuition once you've built tenure here
In-house didactics on clinical topics relevant to your caseload
Weekly coaching and consultation with clinical leadership through your six-month introductory period, built specifically to help you succeed in a group-practice setting
An active client waitlist for rapid, targeted caseload building
A caseload matched to your skills and interests: 17 to 26+ clinical hours per week
A mixed caseload of therapy and psychological / psychoeducational evaluation, testing supplies provided
Full clinical autonomy
Billing, intake scheduling, and correspondence handled by administrative staff
Primarily in-person, Monday to Friday afternoons/evenings, in the Falls Church, Virginia area, with some telehealth
Psy.D. or Ph.D. in clinical or counseling psychology
Independently licensed in Virginia, or licensed in DC, Maryland, or another state and willing to obtain Virginia licensure by endorsement
Direct clinical experience with children, adolescents, and families
Psychological evaluation experience, or interest in expanding into assessment services
Re-specializing back into child and family work from other areas, or returning to practice after a hiatus? When the fundamentals are there, this practice has successfully developed that path before
The practice also hires independently licensed master's clinicians (LCSW, LPC, LMFT, or equivalent) and MSW graduates completing supervised hours toward Virginia licensure as a Supervisee in Social Work. Tell us where you are in your path when you apply.
