Seeking Warm and Insightful Associate and Licensed Therapists and Supervisors
Welcome to Your Turnkey Private Practice
Would you like a turnkey private practice with an abundance of clients working beside high-caliber clinicians in a dynamic and collaborative learning environment?
At My LA Therapy, we offer all of the benefits of private practice with none of the uncertainty and hustling for clients. This is your turnkey private practice––we handle the marketing, admin, calls, office space, technology, and referrals so you can focus on doing what you love most: serving clients and changing lives through your powerful work.
Work With A Collaborative Team of High-Caliber Clinicians
As the owner of the practice, my hope is to provide a dynamic environment that fosters meaningful professional and personal connections among team members, so that our associates and newly licensed team members stay with us in the long-haul and eventually become supervisors training the next generation.
We hold the quality of our clinicians as the cornerstone of our practice, knowing that we can only do dynamic and impactful work with clients to the extent that we are fearlessly engaged in our own self inquiry.
We select our therapists, not only based on their clinical acumen and intelligence, but based on who they are and their unrelenting commitment to their own personal and professional growth.
For this reason, our team is full of kind-hearted, warm, and supportive members who are also incredibly insightful, grounded, and self-aware. We look for therapists who are open, thrive on feedback, and are voracious lifelong learners.
This supports our dynamic and collaborative training environment and challenges us all to grow together as a team by offering our unique insights, expertise, and lessons learned along the way.
All of the Autonomy, None of the Admin
In addition to an unparalleled culture of support and autonomy, we provide a steady stream of ongoing referrals, dynamic consultation, beautifully curated and conveniently located office space, and responsive administrative and technical support. We’ve taken a great deal of time to create optimized systems and automations that make our work flow as easy as possible, minimizing your admin and maximizing your time for clients and self-care.
Dynamic and High Quality Clinical Training
As the owner and CEO of the practice, my desire is to create a culture of openness, support, and shared purpose while offering excellent clinical training of the highest quality. My LA Therapy offers a collaborative learning environment in which we support and challenge one another, sharing lessons, struggles, and triumphs along the way. Our focus is on training in integrative and cross-disciplinary, research based interventions. We integrate foundational cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic training with somatic and experiential modalities for highly dynamic training, exploring a wide-range of clinical topics of interest to our team.
Our Core Values:
Our core values are: integrity, autonomy, openness, excellence, and impact. Let me take a moment to share what these things mean to me as the owner and CEO of the practice.
Integrity
For me, integrity means whole-heartedness, honesty, and character. It means that we are continuously reexamining that which we hold to be true, ferreting out our blind spots, and bringing every aspect of our lives into greater alignment with our highest ideals and deepest values. I view every difficulty in my life as feedback that I can use to better myself and refine my character, so whenever we experience roadblocks as a practice the same principle applies – we use these experiences to learn, grow, and ultimately create better systems that foster an optimal work environment.
Autonomy
As a manager and as an individual, I deeply value autonomy and empowerment. To me, valuing autonomy and empowerment in the workplace means creating an environment that simultaneously offers guidance, support, and structure while also facilitating as much independence and sovereignty as possible.
Hiring clinicians only of the highest caliber allows me and our management team to be very hands off as managers. We find highly skilled people who we trust and allow them to fly on their own with minimal oversight. Of course, associates will have all the supervision you need as you are learning and fostering the skills to increase your independence as you work toward licensure.
At My LA Therapy, you’ll have all the support and collaboration you need with none of the micromanagement, restrictive policies, or burdensome administrative work that comes with most therapy agencies. At My LA Therapy, you choose your own hours, take time off as they need to without permission, and work where and when they want to.
Openness
Openness means being authentic, real, and vulnerable with our struggles, both personal and professional. This is something I model regularly as a leader and endeavor to create the conditions for my team to do as well. Although we are interacting within a professional environment, the work we do is deeply personal and often tugs at the very essence of who we are. It is important for me and my team to balance being open personally while maintaining professional boundaries.
Excellence
Offering top of the line mental health services is the basis of our company and how we serve clients. Our commitment to clinical excellence is demonstrated by our dynamic and supportive environment that inspires clinicians to want to stay with our company in the long-term and continually grow and refine their clinical skills and self-awareness.As an extension of our commitment to excellence, we also frequently solicit feedback and continuously improve our systems to keep the wellbeing of our clinicians at the center of our efforts. We know that offering high quality services to clients is a reflection of how we care for our clinicians and staff.
Impact
Finally, impact is at the heart of what we do. We strive to offer services that deeply shift and transform the people we work with in an enduring manner that reverberates throughout their lives, creating a ripple effect that impacts others through the change in our clients. We hope our impact is not only on clients, but also in creating an inspiring, innovative, and supportive work environment for our clinicians and all our staff. We also offer subsidized mental health services for underserved communities as an extension of our commitment to making a meaningful impact on our community.
This Is For You If:
- You’re an open, passionate, and insightful therapist who’s a self-starter and ready to take on a roster of clients
You have an unrelenting dedication to ongoing personal and professional growth - You thrive on feedback and collaborative learning and have a lifelong commitment to bettering your clinical skills
- You’re a highly skilled master’s level associate mental health professional (ASW, APCC, AMFT), or licensed mental health professionals (LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, Licensed Psychologists)
- You’re confident enough in your clinical skills to fly on your own but also love learning and are willing to seek support when needed
- You’re professional, reliable, and responsive with excellent verbal and written communication skills and interpersonal skills
- You’re available for our team meetings Mondays 1-2pm monthly and love being participatory, supportive, and collaborative in meetings
- You’d like to build up your caseload to 20-40 clients per week (the more, the better!). We’ll consider part time candidates if you’re a really good match and especially for supervisors.
Benefits:
Full-time is considered 20 client hours per week (meaning you need to carry a minimum caseload typically of around 25 clients to account for cancellations or clients who meet biweekly). Once you begin seeing 20 or more clients per week consistently, you qualify for the benefits outlined further below. We’d ideally like to find clinicians who are available to meet with clients in person as well as remotely. Currently our office spaces are in West LA where the 10 and the 405 meet, and we are expanding to other locations rapidly, with focus on the West Side before expanding to the rest of LA.
For benefits, we offer retirement matching contributions, free financial advisement services, expense reimbursement, medical, dental, and vision insurance, and sick pay. You are also paid minimum wage for all non-clinical admin and meeting time. We also offer a monthly stipend of $125 per month to reimburse for training which can be saved up to $1,500 per year so you can be continually learning and refining your clinical skills!
