Part Time Licensed Talk Therapist – Fee For Service

Public discussion and news coverage tied to Thriveworks in the available data is limited and uneven. A 2014 Hacker News thread titled “Creating a New Business Model for Cartoonists” appears in the discussion set; the title alone does not describe Thriveworks’ clinical model, so it should not be read as a review of this role or location.

Recent news headlines are more concrete. A Behavioral Health Business report describes Thriveworks executives joining peers from Optum and Caron in a conversation on payer–provider alignment. Another Behavioral Health Business piece profiles Kabir Daya as Thriveworks’ Chief Digital Officer and Chief Marketing Officer. Claim Depot reported that Thriveworks settled a website privacy class action for $1.9 million, with possible payments to eligible website visitors. An earlier Buyouts article discussed Regal HCP returns involving Thriveworks (and Dental365). A cbs19news.com item on post-holiday blues is also linked in the news set; treat it as general seasonal-mental-health coverage rather than a company performance review.

This role is listed for MI – Grand Rapids, displayed as Grand Rapids in Kent County, Michigan, United States, and is not marked remote. Expect work connected to the Grand Rapids area rather than a distributed-only schedule.

Michigan sits in the Great Lakes region of the Upper Midwest. Public geographic summaries describe it as a peninsular state with water and land borders involving Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, and the Canadian province of Ontario, and note a large statewide population and land area (Michigan – Wikipedia). For a part-time licensed talk therapist on a fee-for-service arrangement, that local setting means client access, commuting, and community context in Grand Rapids matter more than remote logistics.

The title signals a licensed talk therapist path on a part-time, fee-for-service basis at Thriveworks in Grand Rapids—not an entry-level unlicensed support role. Advancement details (supervisory ladders, full-time conversion, or specialty tracks) are not provided in the available data. Practically, this listing suits clinicians who already hold the license needed to deliver talk therapy and who want flexible, session-based part-time work with a multi-location therapy brand rather than building a fully independent private practice from scratch.

No formal certification or training catalog was supplied for this listing. Ground preparation in what the title requires: active clinical licensure appropriate for talk therapy in Michigan, comfort with fee-for-service part-time practice, and readiness for in-person work in Grand Rapids. Verify current licensing boards, continuing-education rules, and any Thriveworks onboarding requirements with the employer—do not assume free or paid courses that are not listed here.
