Licensed Mental Health Counselor

Grow Therapy is a progressive and supportive platform designed to empower mental health clinicians in building and expanding their private practices with ease and confidence. As a facilitator between therapists and the often-complex realm of insurance-based practices, Grow Therapy offers an innovative infrastructure that handles administrative and operational burdens, allowing clinicians to focus solely on delivering high-quality care to their clients. Established as a leader in mental health practice management, Grow Therapy combines technology, community, and expert resources to support independent practitioners, ensuring their success in a competitive and evolving healthcare environment.

The company operates as a partner rather than an employer, enabling clinicians to maintain their status as independent contractors while benefiting from a comprehensive, all-in-one platform. This setup ensures flexibility and autonomy for therapists and psychologists who are licensed in Maryland and are seeking a partnership that provides both independence and robust operational backing. With options to work fully remote, in-person, or via a hybrid arrangement, clinicians can tailor their practice to best suit their lifestyle and client needs.

The Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) role with Grow Therapy is tailored for individuals who are independently licensed in Maryland and are passionate about serving insurance-based clients. The position offers competitive earnings, with therapists earning up to $95 per hour and psychologists up to $109 per hour for insurance clients. In addition to insurance reimbursement rates, practitioners have the flexibility to set their own private pay rates. Payment is made weekly through direct deposit, ensuring a steady cash flow and financial predictability.

Grow Therapy equips its clinicians with a powerful platform that manages essential practice components such as credentialing with major insurers, billing and claims support, integrated Electronic Health Records (EHR), scheduling, telehealth functionalities, and built-in compliance tools. This infrastructure significantly reduces the administrative workload typically associated with private practice, enabling clinicians to focus on providing excellent client care.

Beyond technology, Grow Therapy fosters a vibrant nationwide provider network that includes identity-based clinician groups, local meetups, and virtual networking opportunities. This connected community offers valuable peer support, collaboration, and ongoing professional growth. Clinicians also have access to a dedicated provider success team that assists with navigating payor systems, managing directories, optimizing profiles, and providing marketing guidance to increase visibility and client engagement.

Clinical support is a key pillar of Grow Therapy’s offering. The platform has clinical leaders on staff to provide risk management and coordination for higher levels of care. Additionally, clinicians benefit from free live continuing education (CE) credits and virtual professional development events designed to enhance clinical skills and keep providers abreast of best practices and evolving healthcare standards.

This role is ideal for licensed mental health counselors who desire sustainable growth—not just increased client volume—and value a partnership that supports long-term success through operational efficiency, ongoing education, and community connection. Grow Therapy emphasizes a balance of autonomy and support, inviting clinicians to grow their practices independently but with the assurance of never being alone in the journey.

In summary, Grow Therapy offers a transformative opportunity for Maryland-licensed mental health professionals to expand their insurance-based private practices flexibly and sustainably, backed by a comprehensive suite of tools, peer connections, expert guidance, and competitive compensation. Whether you seek full-time, part-time, or contract work, this position combines financial reward with professional growth in a supportive and innovative environment.
