About Mycelia Therapy Collective

Mycelia Therapy Collective is a new nonprofit group practice committed to increasing access to high-quality psychotherapy while supporting the wellbeing of providers. We believe that sustainable, equitable mental health care requires supporting both clients and clinicians. To that end, we've built our work around three commitments:

• Increase accessibility to psychotherapy - We contract with a wide range of insurance networks—including Washington State Medicaid (Apple Health)—to reduce financial barriers for low- and middle-income Washington state residents.

• Support our clinicians - Our collaborative, trauma-informed team values an affirming, mutually supportive environment. An important aspect of this goal is to offer group health insurance to as many therapists as is possible.

• Shared governance - Mycelia utilizes a collective leadership approach that emphasizes transparency, responsiveness, and flexibility. As we continue to grow, we are eager to provide opportunities for involvement in organizational decision-making.

Role overview

Part-time therapists provide individual psychotherapy to a diverse client base. Clinicians have autonomy in shaping their schedules and clinical approaches while benefiting from a supportive, mission-driven environment. Clinicians can elect to participate in non-clinical activities that support the organization.

​

Therapists have the option of transferring existing clients to Mycelia if those clients meet our income eligibility criteria (generally, household income at or below 115% of the Area Median Income, or enrollment in Apple Health). This can be a meaningful way to increase affordability for clients who are currently paying out of pocket.

​

Responsibilities

• Provide evidence-based mental health care to clients via telehealth sessions

• Deliver care consistent with ethical and professional standards as well as Washington State regulations

• Exercise sound independent clinical judgment while working within Mycelia's policies

• Coordinate care with other healthcare providers and community resources in response to clients’ needs

• Keep thorough, timely clinical documentation in Sessions Health, our HIPAA-compliant EHR. Clinicians must complete notes within two working days of each visit.

​​

Additional optional responsibilities

• Participate in team meetings, peer consultation, and/or occasional training or community events

• Per our non-hierarchical leadership model, help expand and improve the organization. We invite clinicians to participate in administrative projects, planning, and decision making.

Qualifications

• Master’s degree or higher in counseling, social work, marriage & family therapy, psychology, or a related field.

• Active independent Washington State license (e.g., LMHC, LMFT, LICSW, etc.). Unfortunately, we are not able to offer positions to associates at this time.

• Experience providing individual therapy with adults and/or children (community mental health, private practice, or similar).

• Commitment to equity, inclusion, and serving clients across diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.

• Comfortable working with insurance-based billing and documentation requirements (training provided). The Mycelia administrative team manages most credentialing and billing functions.​

Preferred skills & interests

• Familiarity with trauma-informed, evidence-based modalities (e.g., CBT, EMDR, somatic approaches)

• Experience working with LGBTQ+ people

• Experience working with BIPOC people

• Experience working with people with disabilities as well as neurodivergent clients

• Comfort with a weight-neutral approach to health and wellbeing

• Interest in increasing access to care, particularly among young adults and others experiencing barriers to mental health care related to identity, financial well-being, and insurance coverage

• Experience with telehealth platforms and electronic health records

• Commitment to working with clients across diverse cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic backgrounds

• Ability to provide therapy in a language other than English (strongly preferred)

Schedule & compensation

• Flexible part-time schedule; therapists generally maintain 6–12 client hours per week.

• Compensation is per-session, based on a proportion of Mycelia's average reimbursement rate across payers. Compensation rate is tiered based on average number of clients per week, ranging from 45-55%.

• Therapists averaging 8 or more client hours per week are eligible to enroll in Mycelia's Kaiser Permanente Access PPO group medical plan. Mycelia covers 50% of the individual premium; therapists can purchase dependent coverage. Dental insurance is not currently offered. Coverage begins the first of the month after reaching the average caseload agreed upon at hire.
