Prepare your resume, explore your fit, and draft a cover letter for this opportunity. AI Summary ## The role, at a glance. Headway is seeking a master’s-level Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist to launch or expand an independent private practice using its insurance, billing, credentialing, and practice-management platform. The clinician will provide mental health care to their own clients while determining their caseload, schedule, and whether to work in person or through telehealth. Required qualifications include an applicable LMFT-family license, an NPI number, and individual malpractice insurance, with guidance available for obtaining the latter two. The role emphasizes accessible, insurance-supported behavioral healthcare and gives providers administrative support, marketing resources, and client-benefit verification. This is a patient-facing clinical opportunity rather than an internal corporate therapist 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 position requires advanced clinical education, active professional licensure, ethical judgment, and the ability to manage therapeutic relationships independently.

I use active listening and collaborative goal setting to understand the client’s needs, strengths, and preferred outcomes. How do you approach treatment planning for couples or families with complex relational dynamics? I complete a systemic assessment of communication patterns, roles, stressors, strengths, and safety concerns. I then develop measurable goals with the clients, select evidence-informed interventions appropriate to their needs, and revisit the plan regularly based on progress and feedback. How would you manage risk if a client disclosed suicidal ideation during a telehealth session? I would conduct an immediate, structured risk assessment covering intent, plan, means, protective factors, and current location. Based on the level of risk, I would collaboratively create a safety plan or arrange emergency support, follow applicable reporting and documentation requirements, and ensure appropriate follow-up. How do you maintain documentation quality and confidentiality in a remote practice? I use secure, HIPAA-compliant systems, document sessions promptly and objectively, and limit records to clinically relevant information. I also verify privacy at the start of telehealth visits, explain communication boundaries, and follow legal and ethical retention requirements. What strategies would you use to develop and sustain a manageable private-practice caseload? I would define my clinical focus, maintain reliable availability, and provide a clear intake experience while using referral and marketing resources ethically. I would monitor capacity, outcomes, and administrative workload so I can maintain timely access without compromising quality of care. Opportunity details ## About this role. 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.
