Licensed EMDR Therapist | Part-Time or Full-Time
Hampden, Baltimore · Hybrid (In-Person + Telehealth) · W-2 Employee
The Opportunity
We’re seeking a fully licensed, EMDR-trained therapist to join our feminist-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming group practice in Baltimore’s Hampden neighborhood. We take our clinical work seriously, and we build our culture around humor, authenticity, and genuine mutual support.
This role is open to part-time (10–15 sessions/week) or full-time candidates. Whether you’re looking for flexibility or a primary practice home, we’ll shape the arrangement around you. You’ll be stepping into a caseload we’re actively building for EMDR, and clients are waiting.
What You’ll Do
- Carry an EMDR-focused caseload from day one; we’ll actively market and match you with trauma clients seeking this modality
- Deliver individual therapy via in-person sessions in Hampden and/or telehealth
- Participate in group consultation and contribute to team culture; no micromanagement, real collegiality
- Manage your own scheduling within our available hours (some evening or weekend availability appreciated)
Requirements
- Fully licensed in Maryland: LCSW-C, LCPC, or equivalent with no supervision requirements
- Completed EMDR Basic Training (EMDRIA-approved) and ready to see EMDR clients independently
- Master’s or Doctoral degree in Social Work, Psychology, Marriage & Family Therapy, or related field
- Responsive, affirming, and relational clinical approach
We’re Especially Interested in Experience With
- Other trauma modalities alongside EMDR: Brainspotting, TF-CBT, Somatic Experiencing
- Neurodivergence (ADHD and/or autism spectrum)
- OCD treatment using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)
- Adolescent therapy
- Couples therapy (we’ll support training if needed)
You don’t need to check every box. If you bring enthusiasm, clinical skill, and a willingness to grow, we want to hear from you.
Compensation
- Session rate: Starts at $80 per session, scaling with volume and degree level. Couples sessions earn higher rates.
- Earning potential: A part-time clinician seeing 10–15 sessions/week can earn $55,000+ annually
- Malpractice insurance: Covered by the practice
- Retention bonus: Quarterly, based on client retention metrics
- Retirement match: After year one
Note: This is a session-based position with no guaranteed salary floor. Part-time positions do not include health insurance, dental, PTO, or HSA. These benefits are available to full-time clinicians only.
What Makes Us Different
- Transparent pay: Flat session rate paid the same period the session happens, regardless of insurance timing
- EMDR-ready caseload: We’re actively marketing for trauma clients and will match them to you from day one
- Full practice support: Liability coverage, HIPAA-compliant tools, billing, and admin all handled
- Real team: Consultation and community without micromanagement
- Rate that grows: Session rate increases at higher volumes if you choose to expand your caseload
