LPC Clinical Supervisor & Therapist – Full-Time Ellie Mental Health–Clarkston is an independently owned practice providing in-person and telehealth care throughout Michigan. Our furnished clinic and administrative support, including billing, allow clinicians to focus on client care, supervision, and growth.

We seek a compassionate Michigan LPC to provide outpatient therapy and supervise LLPCs while contributing to a collaborative practice grounded in authenticity, compassion, creativity, humor, acceptance, and determination.

Compensation

This is a W-2 straight-commission position, not a salaried position. Clinicians earn a commission percentage of collected insurance and client payments for completed services, a common outpatient private-practice model. Compensation covers session preparation, client sessions, scheduling, documentation, and required meetings. Unlike a 1099 arrangement, the W-2 model includes employee benefits, employer-paid payroll taxes, and employment protections.

Caseload Development

Building and maintaining a caseload is a shared responsibility. The practice provides marketing, online scheduling, administrative support, community relationships, and practice-generated referrals. Clinicians must also maintain availability, respond promptly to referrals, support retention, communicate their specialties, and participate in approved outreach.

Approved outreach and caseload-development activities are paid at $20 per hour when authorized in advance.

Full-time clinicians must average at least 25 direct client-facing hours per week and initially offer approximately 35 scheduling hours per week to support growth and cancellations. At least one evening is required.
