Missoula Licensed Therapist Career Opportunities

Are you a fully licensed therapist in Montana who wants greater control over your schedule, caseload, and clinical focus—but doesn't necessarily want to manage every part of running a private practice alone?

​

Peaks and Valleys Therapy offers 1099 independent-contractor opportunities for licensed clinicians who want to build or grow a private practice with support from an established Missoula group practice.

​

Depending on the agreed-upon arrangement, support may include client referrals, practice marketing, billing infrastructure, an electronic health record, and business consultation. You maintain responsibility for your clinical work and professional obligations while having access to systems and collaboration that can make independent practice more manageable.

Who This Opportunity May Fit

This opportunity may be a good fit if you:

​

  • Hold an independent clinical license that qualifies you for the contractor role in Montana, such as LCSW or LCPC.

  • Want more autonomy over your schedule, caseload, and areas of focus.

  • Are starting private practice or looking to grow an existing clinical niche.

  • Value ethical, relationship-centered, evidence-informed care.

  • Want business infrastructure and collaboration without giving up professional independence.

What the Contractor Arrangement Includes

Contractor arrangements are percentage-based and depend on the agreed-upon terms. Practice support may include referrals, marketing, billing systems, an electronic health record, and business consultation.

​

This is a 1099 independent-contractor role rather than a salaried employee position. Contractors are responsible for their clinical services, documentation, maintaining required credentials and liability coverage, and meeting the terms of their agreement. Specific expectations, compensation, and available support will be discussed during the application process.
