About the Role
Headspace requires providers operating in the state of Massachusetts (MA) to register as a business entity in order to comply with state labor laws.
To get started, we strongly encourage having 10+ hours available per week with full flexibility to adjust; more is always welcome depending on your schedule! Please note that due to care demand and member scheduling fluctuations, it could take a number of weeks to achieve a consistent schedule.
The pay for the Contract Mental Health Therapist ranges from $80-$85 per teletherapy session. Exact reimbursement rates will be determined during the interview process and are based on a number of factors including but not limited to location, licensure type, experience, specializations, languages spoken, and populations treated.
Session length is 60 minutes for an intake and 45 minutes for a follow up appointment, with concurrent note-taking expected and included in the session rate. All Headspace therapists must be licensed and reside in the US. Due to the nature of healthcare services, all work must be provided in the U.S. (50 states only, no territories).
