Mental Health, Clinical Social Worker
We deliver talk therapy across all 50 states through our virtual care service: licensed therapists, the same therapist visit over visit, and 45 or 50
-minute sessions. As demand grows, our therapist team is growing fast, and we need a clinical leadership layer purpose-built to support it.
The Talk Therapy Clinical Lead is that layer. Reporting to our senior behavioral health clinical leader, you will provide clinical support to a team of licensed therapists delivering care on the platform. You support the clinical quality, safety, and consistency of the therapy they provide, and their experience as members of a remote team. In this role, you will also keep a small direct caseload so you stay close to the work your team does every day.
WhatYou’ll Do
As the Talk Therapy Clinical Lead, you will supervise a team of licensed therapists, reporting to the senior behavioral health clinical leader and partnering with Clinical Operations, Product, and Member Experience. Your primary responsibilities will include:
- Case Consultation and Clinical Support: Provide case consultations, treatment-plan review, and clinical decision support, so that every member receives safe, effective, evidence-based care.
- Risk and Crisis Oversight: Support the team's risk-management pathways for suicidal or homicidal ideation, abuse and mandated reporting, duty-to-warn situations, and other clinical emergencies. Be the escalation point for high-acuity and complex cases and ensure clinicians know exactly what to do and when.
- Clinical Oversight: Run regular one-on-ones, support performance and retention, and help each clinician grow their craft and their career on a remote team.
- Clinical Quality and Documentation: Oversee the chart review team, conduct chart and documentation reviews, monitor measurement-based-care and outcome data, and close the loop with coaching when quality or consistency drifts.
- Standards and Protocols: Partner with the senior behavioral health leader to maintain clinical protocols, safety workflows, and care pathways for the talk therapy program, and keep them current as the program evolves.
- Onboarding and Calibration: Onboard newly hired therapists, calibrate clinical approach across the team, and deliver clinical training and oversight that raises the floor and the ceiling.
- Multi-State Compliance: Ensure care delivery meets state licensure, telehealth, and scope-of-practice requirements across all 50 states.
- Capacity Partnership: Work with Clinical Operations on therapist availability, scheduling, and continuity , so that clinical quality and access scale together rather than against each other.
- Direct Care: Maintain a small direct therapy caseload to stay close to the member and clinician experience and to model the standard you hold the team to.
- You are an experienced, fully licensed therapist who has already supervised or led other clinicians and found that you love developing people as much as treating members.
- You hold a high clinical bar and can articulate what good therapy looks like, then coach a team toward it without micromanaging.
- You are calm and decisive in clinical risk situations.
- You think about quality and access at the same time, and you understand that continuity and time-to-care are part of the clinical outcome, not separate from it.
- You are comfortable in a fast-moving, remote, technology-forward environment and curious about how AI and good tooling can make clinicians' work better rather than harder.
- You want a pure individual-contributor caseload with no responsibility for other clinicians' work; the heart of this role is supervision and leadership.
- You are uncomfortable being the clinical escalation point…
