Licensed Mental Health Therapist (MD) – Peak Hours (Evenings & Weekends)

Location: Fully Remote (Must hold an active Maryland license)
Schedule: Part-Time
Required Hours: Weekdays 3 PM – 9 PM | Weekends 8 AM – 2 PM

Backpack Healthcare provides mental health care for children, teens, and young adults — all online, covered by most insurance. We're clinician-led and minority-owned, and we believe the quality of care kids receive is directly tied to how well we support the people delivering it.

If you're a licensed therapist who wants a full-time caseload, real career growth, and a team that actually shows up for you — keep reading.

What this role looks like:

Day-to-day you'll:

• Conduct intakes and build client-centered, trauma-informed treatment plans
• Collaborate with our interdisciplinary team — therapists, PMHNPs, and psychiatrists working together
• Maintain timely documentation in our EHR
• Support families with education and care coordination, not just the child in the room

What we offer

• $65/billable hour — LCSW-C, LCPC, or LMFT (independently licensed)
• $45/billable hour — LMSW or LGPC (supervision provided; limited openings)
• Medical, dental, and vision
• 401(k) with 3% company match
• Paid time off
• $300 annual CEU reimbursement
• Free clinical supervision for eligible licenses
• $25,000 company-paid life insurance
• Employee Assistance Program
• Pathways into clinical leadership, including our Residency & Fellowship Program

What we're looking for

• Active Maryland license: LGPC, LCPC, LMSW, or LCSW-C
• Experience with children, teens, and families
• Comfortable working independently in a remote setting
• Bilingual English/Spanish — strongly preferred
• Committed to trauma-informed, culturally responsive practice

Who we are

We've served 12,000+ kids and families since 2020. 78% of families report their child is doing better after three months. We're building something real in Maryland, and we want clinicians who want to grow with us — into supervision, leadership, and mentorship roles as we scale.

When clinicians thrive, kids thrive. That's not a tagline. It's how we build.

Backpack Healthcare is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We celebrate diversity in age, background, identity, and experience — and we mean it.
