MASC Medical is hiring a contract, fully remote therapist licensed in Pennsylvania and New Jersey on behalf of our client — a fast-growing, virtual-first behavioral health organization. You'll provide telehealth therapy to adults with serious mental illness (SMI), substance use disorders, and dementia — including older adults — as part of a multidisciplinary care team of psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, community health workers, and medical assistants delivering wrap-around outpatient care that keeps patients out of the hospital.

What you’ll do

• Provide virtual psychosocial assessments and individual psychotherapy through a telehealth platform (audio-only sessions as backup when patients can’t access video)
• Deliver time-framed, goal-focused, skill-based therapy using evidence-based approaches: CBT, solution-focused therapy, motivational interviewing, and behavioral activation
• Lead and facilitate group therapy and support groups
• Provide support and advocacy to caregivers and family members of patients with dementia and SMI
• Document treatment response and monitor clinical symptoms in the EMR
• Collaborate in daily team huddles; identify social determinants of health needs the care team will work to resolve

What you’ll need

• Active, unrestricted Pennsylvania and New Jersey LCSW or LPC license
• Must be able to bill Medicare
• Experience conducting psychotherapy via telehealth
• Experience screening, assessing, and treatment-planning for common mental health and/or substance use disorders
• Working knowledge of evidence-based brief behavioral interventions (motivational interviewing, problem-solving treatment, behavioral activation)
• A confidential home workspace and reliable internet (computer provided)
