Remote Licensed Therapist jobs

14 open positions in the United States, newest first.

Licensed therapists provide psychotherapy under a state-issued clinical license. This is the broadest version of the title, so postings should be read for which licenses they accept and which clients they serve: adults, children, couples or families. The work is carrying a caseload of clients through assessment, regular sessions and discharge, with the documentation that goes with it.

About the Licensed Therapist role

What the work looks like

  • Carry a caseload of recurring clients, typically seeing each weekly or every other week for a therapy hour.
  • Provide couples or family sessions where the license and training allow, managing several people in one conversation.
  • Complete intake paperwork, diagnostic assessment and treatment plans in the practice's electronic health record.
  • Track outcomes with standard questionnaires such as the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 and adjust treatment accordingly.
  • Take part in case consultation or peer supervision to review difficult cases with other clinicians.

What employers ask for

  • Active independent clinical license in good standing
  • Commonly accepted licenses: LCSW, LMFT, LPC, LMHC, psychologist
  • Individual, couples or family therapy training
  • Measurement-based care and outcome tracking
  • Timely clinical documentation
  • Liability insurance for contractor arrangements

Doing this job remotely

Remote therapist roles are usually telehealth positions with a practice group or platform, some salaried and some paid per session as a contractor. Licensure follows the client's location, so holding licenses in several states widens the available work. Caseload consistency depends on client demand, and many clients want sessions outside business hours.

Where it comes from and where it leads

The route is a graduate degree, supervised post-degree hours and a state licensing exam. Experienced therapists go on to supervise associates, lead clinical teams, specialize in a modality or population, or build their own practice.
