AI SummaryHeadway is seeking independently licensed master’s-level mental health therapists (LPC, LCSW, or LMFT) to launch or expand a private practice using its insurance, billing, and practice-management platform. Clinicians retain control over their caseload, schedule, and whether they deliver in-person or telehealth care. Required credentials include applicable clinical licensure, an NPI number, and individual malpractice insurance. The opportunity is focused on providing therapy services rather than a conventional salaried employee position. ## Role DNA A quick view of the complexity, pace, ownership and collaboration implied by the job description. ### Job Complexity 4/5EasyHard ### Pace & Pressure 3/5RelaxedFast-paced ### Autonomy Level 5/5GuidedFull ownership ### Communication Load 5/5IndependentCollaborative AI insightThe role requires an active independent clinical license, sound therapeutic judgment, ethical practice, and the ability to manage client care responsibly.

How do you maintain ethical and clinical standards while practicing independently? I follow my state licensing requirements, maintain complete and secure documentation, obtain informed consent, protect confidentiality, and use consultation or supervision when a case is outside my expertise or presents elevated risk. How would you handle a client who presents with safety concerns during a telehealth session? I would conduct an immediate risk assessment, confirm the client’s current location and emergency contacts, collaborate on a safety plan when appropriate, and activate emergency or crisis resources in accordance with legal, ethical, and clinical requirements. How do you build a sustainable caseload while protecting quality of care and preventing burnout? I establish clear availability and caseload boundaries, schedule appropriate administrative time, monitor clinical complexity, and regularly evaluate workload so that each client receives attentive and consistent care. Why are you interested in using Headway to support your practice? Headway’s credentialing, billing, and insurance-support services reduce administrative burden and can improve access for clients. This would allow me to focus more of my time and energy on high-quality clinical care and thoughtful practice growth. 1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but most providers don’t accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway’s mission is to fix this by building a new mental healthcare system everyone can access. We started by solving the biggest barrier to care: insurance. The admin work – credentialing, claims, payment reconciliation – is a nightmare. We’ve automated that. But we’re going further. Over 75,000 providers across all 50 states run their practice on our software, serving over 1 million patients. We are building the best tools for therapists to run their entire practice, reimagining the experience of finding a therapist, and investing in the platform foundations to enable this at scale. We aren’t just a billing layer; we are becoming the platform where care actually happens. We’re a Series D company with $325M+ in funding (a16z, Accel, Spark Capital, etc.), looking for exceptional people to help us achieve this mission. We want your time here to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better. Are you a Licensed Mental Health Therapist looking to launch a private practice, or grow your existing practice? Headway currently supports thousands of mental health clinicians across the United States in our mission to rewire the mental healthcare system for access and affordability by equipping mental health practitioners with the tools and resources they need to run their practices. Whether you’re new to private practice or already have an established practice of your own, we’re excited to support you in reaching your goals! By joining the Headway community, we’ll help you: * Accept insurance hassle-free by credentialing you with the nation’s largest networks and handling the billing and admin paperwork for you. * Maintain a flexible schedule by deciding how many clients you see through Headway, so that you can set the hours that work for you. * Grow your caseload by providing marketing support and best practices to grow your practice! * Use Headway’s practice management software to run your practice, but if using your own works better, that’s fine too! We’ll also support your clients by: * Providing live, customized support to clinicians and clients in order to streamline the process of both seeking and providing care. * Verifying client insurance benefits instantly and automatically, so that access to care is never delayed, and you can see your clients with confidence. And we do this all without additional fees! Headways is a flexible service, meaning your hours are yours to set, and it’s up to you whether you see your patients in-person or remotely via telehealth while working from home. Ready to get started? To join Headway’s growing community, you are/have: * Licensure: You’re a Masters Level Licensed Mental Health Therapist (LPC, LCSW, LMFT) * NPI Number and Individual Malpractice Insurance: We can point you in the right direction if you don’t have those yet! We believe a team’s strength is in its people, and we cannot achieve this mission without a team that reflects the diversity of this problem – across race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, national origin, religion, family status, disability, military status, and experience.
