Thank you for taking the time to review our job posting. Before telling you more about our clinic and the position, we would like to share what makes this role truly unique.

In healthcare, many employers advertise an attractive wage, only for clinicians to discover that a significant portion of their paycheck is deducted every month for high-cost health coverage. Furthermore, employer 401(k) matching programs often come with multi-year vesting schedules, meaning you lose company contributions if you move on before reaching a specific tenure.

We approach compensation differently:

• $0 Paycheck Deduction for Health Coverage: We pay 100% of the premium cost for Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage for our employees. Our medical plan is exceptional and part of the BCBS network.
• Immediate 401(k) Vesting: Your 401(k) enrollment begins the month after you start. We match 4% when you contribute 5%, and every dollar matched is 100% yours immediately—there is no multi-year vesting period.
• 100% Covered Malpractice Insurance: We pay 100% of your professional liability coverage.

Beyond compensation, we prioritize a healthy, collaborative, and supportive workplace. We expect our clinicians to be reliable, high-quality practitioners, and in return, we invest heavily in our team. We pride ourselves on low turnover, a culture of mutual respect, and strong interdisciplinary medical support.

We are one of the region’s premier multidisciplinary private behavioral health practices, serving patients across Northeastern New York and Vermont for over 9 years. Our team consists of Psychiatrists, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, and Licensed Therapists providing comprehensive, evidence-based outpatient care.

Our Colchester clinic provides essential behavioral health care to the greater Chittenden County community, backed by the resources, medical support, and dedicated administrative infrastructure of an established regional practice.

• Conduct comprehensive clinical assessments to determine individual patient needs and establish tailored treatment plans.
• Deliver evidence-based individual psychotherapy to a diverse outpatient population.
• Maintain timely, accurate clinical documentation in compliance with state regulations and clinic standards.
• Collaborate with our multidisciplinary team of medical providers (MDs and NPs) for integrated care and medication management co-treatment.
• Participate in ongoing professional development.

• Licensure: Active, unrestricted license in the State of Vermont as a LICSW, LCMHC, or LMFT (or eligible for immediate Vermont licensure).
• Clinical Expertise: Strong foundation in individual counseling techniques and evidence-based modalities (CBT, DBT, trauma-informed care, etc.).
• Documentation & Billing: Familiarity with clinical documentation standards and mental health CPT coding (on-the-job training provided for specific billing software).
• Professionalism: Excellent communication skills, clinical judgment, and a dedication to patient-centered care.

• Health Benefits: 100% employer-paid Medical ($1200 deductible), Dental, and Vision insurance ($0 paycheck deduction).
• Base Salary & Bonuses: $70,000 – $85,000 base salary (commensurate with experience) plus productivity bonus incentives.
• Retirement: 401(k) with immediate 4% match on a 5% employee contribution (100% vested from Day
  1).
• Liability Coverage: 100% employer-paid malpractice insurance.
• Paid Time Off: Generous PTO package plus paid company holidays.
• Family Support: Parental leave options.
• Administrative Infrastructure: Dedicated full-service intake, credentialing, authorization, and billing staff so you can focus entirely on patient care.
