Licensed Mental Health Therapist: Required: Active, unrestricted Pennsylvania LCSW, LPC, or LMFT license
RENEW Life Counseling Services is seeking an experienced, independently licensed therapist to join our growing trauma-focused private practice.
This role may be Telehealth, in-person at our thoughtfully designed Mechanicsburg office suite, or a flexible combination of both.
About RENEW Life Counseling Services
RENEW reflects the heart of our practice: Reflect. Explore. Narrate. Evolve Wholeheartedly.
Our mission is to offer a clinically attuned, emotionally safe, warm, and genuinely nonjudgmental space where clients can show up as their authentic selves without fear of judgment, shame, or pressure to make their experiences more comfortable for others.
We believe everyone deserves a soft place to set down what they have been carrying and to discover they do not have to carry it alone. Our work is about more than symptom reduction. We help clients build a felt sense of internal safety, resilience, and self-trust.
Why Join RENEW?
RENEW is intentionally being built as a small, supportive clinical practice—not a high-volume therapy mill. We believe therapists can only hold this kind of space for clients when they are also supported, respected, and able to work from a grounded, sustainable place.
Our goal is to create an environment where clinicians have autonomy, meaningful support, specialized resources, and the emotional capacity to remain present, curious, and attuned.
We are looking for a clinician who values both warmth and competence—someone who can sit with what feels unspeakable without judgment, resist rushing to fix or impose personal values, and still provide structured, ethical, evidence-based care.
The Opportunity
This is a meaningful, stable opportunity for an experienced, self-directed clinician within a growing private practice.
The selected clinician must be willing and available to gradually build toward, and then maintain, a minimum of 10 completed billable sessions per week. Referrals will be provided as available, but an immediate caseload, minimum referral volume, or minimum income cannot be guaranteed during the caseload-building period.
Consistent evening availability is required.
Our primary client population includes adults experiencing complex trauma, anxiety, childhood trauma, attachment wounds, relationship difficulties, personality-related concerns, and the effects of emotionally harmful relationships. Experience and interest in treating adolescents are strongly preferred as RENEW expands the populations we serve.
What RENEW Provides
- Fully furnished private-practice office suite with therapy offices, reception/waiting area, and conference/break room
- Multiple thoughtfully designed therapy spaces
- Dedicated sandtray and expressive therapy room
- EMDR equipment for clinician use
- Comfortable, trauma-informed clinical environment
- Flexible telehealth, in-office, or hybrid scheduling
- Marketing and referrals, as available
- SimplePractice EHR and secure telehealth platform
- Insurance claim submission and billing support
- Paid monthly clinical consultation and professional support
- Specialized training and certification support
- Accessible practice owner who respects independent clinical judgment
- Culture that prioritizes clinician wellness and excellent client care
The office suite and its resources are provided exclusively for services delivered through RENEW and may not be used to operate an outside private practice.
Compensation
This is a part-time independent contractor opportunity.
- 50% of actual collected revenue for services personally rendered
- 55% of subsequent collected revenue after maintaining an average of at least 15 completed sessions per week for three consecutive months
Collected revenue includes cleared insurance and client payments, including copays, coinsurance, deductibles, and self-pay fees. Compensation is based on money actually collected, not the amount originally billed. Payments are issued monthly after funds have been received and posted.
Estimated compensation is approximately $48–$115 per completed clinical service, depending on service provided, payer reimbursement, collection amount, and applicable compensation tier. Caseload and income are not guaranteed.
The clinician is responsible for their own taxes, professional liability insurance, license renewal, continuing education, and individual business expenses.
Clinical Quality and Professionalism
We are looking for a reliable, self-motivated clinician who takes the responsibility of therapy seriously.
The selected clinician must be committed to:
- Providing ethical, high-quality, evidence-based psychotherapy
- Selecting interventions based on each client’s needs, diagnosis, goals, culture, and readiness
- Maintaining current knowledge of evidence-based and trauma-informed treatment
- Remaining actively engaged in continuing education
- Translating professional learning into meaningful clinical practice
- Completing timely, accurate, and insurance-compliant documentation
- Communicating proactively and following through consistently
- Maintaining strong boundaries and continuity of care
- Seeking consultation when clinically appropriate
- Practicing within their competence, scope, and independent professional judgment
- Providing culturally responsive and LGBTQIA+-affirming care
Communication and Support
A brief weekly secure touch-base is required to share high-level updates about caseload status and communicate significant safety concerns, documentation issues, care coordination needs, scheduling problems, planned transitions, or other material practice concerns.
This is not formal clinical supervision or a session-by-session client report. The clinician remains independently responsible for clinical judgment and treatment decisions.
A 60-minute paid clinical consultation and professional support meeting is also available monthly. Participation is strongly encouraged and compensated separately at $40 per hour.
Consultation may include case discussion, treatment planning, documentation or insurance concerns, professional development, caseload sustainability, and clinician wellness.
Professional Development Investment
RENEW is committed to investing in clinicians who demonstrate meaningful, long-term commitment to the practice.
- After 8 consecutive months in good standing: eligible for 50% reimbursement toward one preapproved specialization training or certification, up to $750
- After 2 consecutive years in good standing: eligible for 80% reimbursement toward one preapproved specialization training or certification, up to $2,000
Training must relate to behavioral health treatment, the clinician’s scope of practice, or the populations served by RENEW, and must be approved in writing before registration.
Long-Term Continuity
RENEW is looking for a clinician who wants to develop a stable, long-term professional home.
The contractor agreement will require 60 days’ written notice before ending the relationship, except in emergencies or circumstances that make continued practice impossible or unsafe.
A departing clinician will be expected to complete any outstanding documentation and cooperate to ensure an ethical, organized transition of care for affected clients.
