Contract Therapist

A Family Place is a counseling organization that's been in the North Texas area since 2007. We are expanding our small practice, and are looking for therapists to provide mental health services for children, teens, adults, couples and families. We are hiring in both our Denton and Plano offices! It's a great time to start your own private practice, and if you join our group of affiliated providers, you can focus on the therapy, while the mundane business needs are taken care of. Our clinicians set their own fees and hours (based on office availability), and can work as much or as little as they want. We have offices in Denton and Plano, including space for groups; and we offer Telehealth via HIPAA compliant video platform, as well.

Applicants must be able to pass a background check. Send your resume, cover letter and questions to Michelle at Michelle@afamilyplace.net.
