Mental health provider in private practice – Licensed in Oregon – Westside Behavioral Care, Inc. – Remote Part Time

About Westside Behavioral Care
Since 1998, our mission at Westside Behavioral Care has been to make it as easy and convenient as possible for clients seeking mental health appointments to connect with licensed providers in private practice. We accomplish this by scheduling appointments based on therapist availability, insurance, specialty, and location (including online-only). Our credentialing specialist can credential therapists with nearly all insurance companies, and our billing specialist handles the billing process on the therapists’ behalf.

We work exclusively with providers who either are – or wish to be – in private practice. Among other benefits, we provide referrals and billing, and therapists remain in full control of their practices. This allows providers the freedom to set their own hours, establish their own expectations with clients, and use any software and processes of their choice. WBC does not audit client charts and does not have any additional assessment requirements.
Thanks to our success in Colorado, we are expanding our operations to Portland, Oregon in order to help meet the rise in client demand for mental health providers. We are establishing a new provider network there but (due to telehealth access, which we provide without charge) we are recruiting providers who have Oregon licensure whether or not they actually live in the area.

About the therapists we seek

We are seeking therapists either established in private practice or willing and qualified to establish a private practice. As a therapist in private practice, our business relationship will be that of an independent contractor, not an employee. We are able to provide general guidance about establishing a private practice, though it is ultimately up to the provider to determine how the practice itself will be established.

Therapists who join us become eligible to receive a considerable volume of outpatient referrals and our goal is for therapists to eventually to see10 to 35 clients per week with us. We pay substantive, per-session reimbursements to all our participating therapists.
