Therapy Associate – New York

Cerebral is hiring Therapy Associates (provisionally licensed clinicians) for a full-time, remote position serving clients throughout the United States, with a focus on therapists licensed in New York. This is your opportunity to build clinical expertise and launch a rewarding career in behavioral health care.

Role Overview

As a Therapy Associate with Cerebral, you'll provide individual, couples, group, and family psychotherapy via secure telemedicine while developing the clinical decision-making skills that define excellence in mental health treatment. This is not a volume-focused position—it's a pathway to mastery. You'll begin with a two-week, structured intensive program (delivered live 12–2 pm ET daily, plus guided assignments), then continue advancing through supervised practice and our clinical learning platform.

Your Responsibilities

• Deliver 60-minute psychotherapy sessions with measurable clinical outcomes as your foundation
• Build your caseload to a minimum of 50 sessions per month by the end of week 20
• Complete comprehensive treatment plans, progress notes, and DSM-5 assessments within 48 hours of each session
• Participate in regular clinical supervision focused on deepening your diagnostic and decision-making capabilities
• Engage with continuing education through monthly learning series and accredited coursework
• Attend monthly company-wide meetings to connect with your clinical community

Who We're Looking For

• Master's degree in social work, counseling, or related mental health discipline
• Provisional licensure in New York as an LMSW or MHC-LP
• Six or more months of supervised psychotherapy experience (preferred)
• Current CAQH profile, active NPI number, and working toward or holding malpractice insurance requirements
• Strong foundation in DSM-5 diagnosis, evidence-based interventions, and crisis response protocols
• Comfort working independently in a telehealth environment while actively seeking and accepting clinical supervision
• Commitment to professionalism, therapeutic presence, and building client trust in virtual settings
• Reliable computer (not Chromebook) and high-speed internet connection
• Flexibility to maintain 15+ hours of weekly availability, including one evening or weekend slot during your first year

Why Join Cerebral

Cerebral combines comprehensive clinical training through our Institute with real-world caseload building. You'll earn $55 per unit of time worked as a W-2 contractor, gain supervision hours toward independent licensure, receive referral and marketing support (including directory listings), and access an integrated clinical EMR with decision-support tools. We provide group malpractice insurance, handle billing and admin overhead, and connect you to a national network of clinicians committed to raising the standard of behavioral health care.
