Mental Health Therapist (Part-Time, W-2)
WFA Digital Insight
Twochairs is redefining outpatient mental health by pairing a strong cultural commitment—"Embrace Differences"—with a fully remote practice model. The part‑time therapist role stands out because clinicians can shape their weekly load, picking anywhere from seven to twenty clients and scheduling sessions between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m. EST. Compensation is transparent, with a $58.50 hour clinical rate for South Carolina residents and a clear administrative fee for no‑show or late‑cancellation time. Beyond pay, Twochairs bundles W‑2 perks rarely seen in contract work: paid sick leave, employer‑sponsored 401(k), malpractice coverage and a yearly wellness stipend. The company also backs professional growth with free APA‑accredited CE courses and regular case consultation, making it a rare blend of flexibility, support, and clinical rigor for tele‑therapists looking to practice at scale without sacrificing benefits.
