Employment Opportunities

Do excellent clinical work without having to build a practice around it.

The Psychology Group Fort Lauderdale is a private practice for clinicians who want the benefits of private practice without having to run one on their own.

We offer something that can be surprisingly hard to find in mental health: high standards with a lot of support.

Our clinicians have the independence to do meaningful clinical work while benefiting from the team, infrastructure, referral systems, marketing, administrative support, and employment benefits of a well-run practice behind them.

If you care deeply about your work, want to keep getting better at it, and like the idea of being part of a seriously talented team rather than practicing on an island, you may feel very at home here.

The Psychology Group Employment Opportunities

A Little About Us:

Hi! We’re Jamie and Justin, the husband-and-wife team behind The Psychology Group.

Jamie is a licensed psychologist, and Justin’s background is in digital marketing and business operations. We founded TPG in 2018 with the idea that great clinical care and a great place to work should reinforce each other.

Over the years, we’ve invested heavily in both sides of that equation.

Clinically, that means evidence-based care, thoughtful consultation, ongoing learning, outcome-informed practice, and colleagues who take their work seriously.

Behind the scenes, it means building the systems that allow clinicians to actually do that work: referral generation, client services, marketing, technology, administrative support, benefits, and the countless operational details that keep a practice running.

What Makes TPG Different

A group practice should offer more than an office and a place to put clients on your calendar.

At TPG, clinicians benefit from infrastructure we have spent years building behind the scenes:

  • An established local brand and strong digital presence
  • Practice-managed referral generation and caseload development
  • Established community and professional referral relationships
  • Administrative and client-services support, including management of prospective-client inquiries
  • Marketing, website, SEO, and content systems designed to attract and connect new clients with our clinicians
  • Guided support creating educational content that helps prospective clients get to know you and your expertise
  • Weekly clinical consultation and collaboration
  • Ongoing training and professional development
  • Outcome-informed systems that help us evaluate whether our work is actually helping
  • W-2 employment with meaningful benefits and greater income stability

For our clinicians, you will not be expected to find your own clients.

TPG takes responsibility for referral generation, prospective-client inquiries, and caseload development. Clinicians contribute to those efforts through excellent clinical work, strong client retention, and guided educational and marketing content that helps us showcase who they are and the work they do.

High Standards. A Lot of Support.

We take clinical excellence seriously.

That does not mean we expect perfection, and it certainly does not mean figuring everything out alone.

The clinicians who tend to thrive at TPG are confident enough to practice independently and humble enough to know there is always more to learn. They ask questions. They seek consultation. They are curious about what works. They can receive feedback without viewing it as a threat, and they are willing to change course when something could be done better.

In return, we believe high expectations should be matched by meaningful support.

You should have people to consult with. You should know what is expected of you. You should have access to training and feedback. You should not have to become your own marketing department, intake coordinator, billing office, referral network, and business owner just to have a successful clinical career.

That is the trade we are trying to create at TPG.

A Team, Not an Island

Every Friday, our clinicians come together as a team. Depending on the week, we may consult on cases, learn an evidence-based treatment, review new research, brainstorm ideas, work on marketing and educational content, or discuss ways to make the practice better.

We also regularly review practice and clinical outcomes, celebrate wins, laugh a lot, and occasionally interrupt the workday with games, surprises, or something delicious.

There is structure here, but there is also humanity.

Our clinicians have meaningful flexibility in how they arrange their schedules, opportunities for hybrid work, support finding clients who fit their interests and expertise, and colleagues who genuinely know one another.

We want people to do excellent work here and still have a life when the workday ends.

Who Tends to Love It Here?

TPG may be a particularly good fit if you:

  • Care about evidence-based, high-quality clinical work
  • Are humble, curious, and hungry to keep developing
  • Want colleagues you can actually consult and collaborate with
  • Appreciate clear expectations and strong organizational systems
  • Value flexibility without wanting to operate completely on your own
  • Like the idea of contributing to something larger than your individual caseload
  • Want the benefits of private practice without having to build the entire business infrastructure yourself

If your ideal job is maximum independence with very little interaction, feedback, or involvement beyond seeing your own clients, we may not be the right practice for you.

But if you want to build a rewarding clinical career inside a practice that takes both excellent care and the clinician experience seriously, we’d love for you to explore our current openings.

What’s a typical day in TPG life?

There really isn’t one exact version of a typical day. It could include seeing clients in person or by telehealth, consulting with a colleague between sessions, working on an educational blog or video, joining a team meeting, and handling a little documentation or administrative work.

Depending on how you build your schedule, you may work from the office some days and from home on another. You’ll have structure and clear expectations, but also meaningful flexibility in how you organize your week.

And because you’re part of a team, the day often includes the little things that are easy to lose in solo practice: asking someone’s opinion on a tough case, catching up over lunch, laughing about something ridiculous in the hallway, or having someone nearby who actually understands the work you do.

We want our clinicians to work hard while they’re here, do work they’re proud of, and still have enough of themselves left for the rest of their lives.

Here's an example of what a full day might look like:

  • 9:30-9:45am: Arrive to office, make self a yummy coffee, and catch up with colleagues
  • 10-12: See two ideal clients
  • 12-1: Grab lunch/run an errand
  • 1-1:30: Write progress notes and visit with your work BFF
  • 1:30-3:30: See two more awesome clients
  • 3:30-4: Write progress notes, have a snack, talk shop with leadership
  • 4-6:00: See your last two clients
  • 6:00: Head home with plenty of energy for your personal life

(3 of 3) Licensed Psychologist - Per Diem

The Psychology Group Fort Lauderdale's Company Culture

“People with a scarcity mentality tend to see everything in terms of win-lose. There is only so much; and if someone else has it, that means there will be less for me. The more principle-centered we become, the more we develop an abundance mentality, the more we are genuinely happy for the successes, well-being, achievements, recognition, and good fortune of other people. We believe their success adds to…rather than detracts from…our lives.” Stephen Covey, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People

Abundance. We're committed to truly and completely operating from a perspective of abundance. This means that we believe there is enough business to go around and we can support someone else’s growth without being preoccupied with how it could take away from individual success.

Collaboration. If you need a mentor, we've got you. If you have something to teach us, we're listening. We ask that you come to us with ideas, complaints, suggestions, or otherwise.

Support. We contribute to each others' professional and personal growth, hold each other accountable, and support one another in building the career of our dreams!

How we think about our team members is simple. They're family.

I'll never forget one of the most impactful (and not positive) moments of my career. I was working for a large mental health agency and after a long, stressful day of busting my butt, — actually after YEARS of stressful days busting my butt — I was told by an executive that every employee was replaceable.

I recall hearing a proverbial record scratch in my mind. "Replaceable? What?!"

After I resumed the typical hectic day of back-to-back therapy in a fluorescent-lit cell with old, uncomfortable, dingy furniture, I made myself a little promise. I assured myself that if I ever got out of that dead-end job, I would create something so much better. Not only for myself, but for anyone who worked alongside me.

Today, my mission is to do just that. I'm committed to being the leader that I wish I had. My like-minded business partner (and husband) and I emphatically believe that people are incredibly valuable. We do not view employees as dispensable.

We believe that everyone wants to succeed and be engaged in meaningful, purposeful work in a place that’s collaborative, fun, and familial. We're driven to inspire a team of people with our vision and we want them to know that this vision is only achievable because of them.

Our business and the folks within it are consistently evolving and growing. Therefore, we hire to compliment our strengths and counter our weaknesses. The result is a more diverse and stronger team.

We choose to work with people that we want to see every day. We will give our employees everything they need to be successful with or without us. And we'll treat them so well that, hopefully, they'll be with us for a very long time.

Our mission is to change the way people think about mental healthcare. Both the consumers and its providers and administrators.

The Psychology Group's Manifesto

WE BELIEVE excellent clinical work should be grounded in both science and humanity.
WE BELIEVE you can fully accept who you are and still want something to change.
WE BELIEVE perfection is a terrible prerequisite for progress.
WE BELIEVE expertise should make you more curious, not less.
WE BELIEVE knowing when to ask for help is a sign of good judgment, not weakness.
WE BELIEVE feedback should help people grow, not make them afraid to make mistakes.
WE BELIEVE high standards and kindness can coexist.
WE BELIEVE clinicians do better work when they don’t have to fight the systems around them.
WE BELIEVE a successful practice should be good for the clients it serves and the people who work there.
WE BELIEVE meaningful work should add to your life, not consume it.
WE BELIEVE laughter, friendship, good food, and occasionally being a little ridiculous belong in serious workplaces too.
WE BELIEVE good therapy requires curiosity about the systems and environments people live within, not just what happens inside their heads.
WE BELIEVE our profession should be willing to examine where its own traditions, assumptions, and systems have caused harm.
WE BELIEVE treating everyone “the same” is not always the same thing as treating people fairly or well.
WE BELIEVE affirming someone’s humanity should never be controversial.
WE BELIEVE people deserve thoughtful, respectful care across differences in race, ethnicity, culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, body size, ability, religion, socioeconomic status, and lived experience.
WE BELIEVE great relationships aren’t reserved for the lucky. They’re built, repaired, and chosen again and again.
WE BELIEVE a life worth living asks something of us: effort, engagement, and the courage to live more freely.

That’s the kind of practice we’re still trying to build.

Really Want the Job? A Few Tips for Standing Out

We’re thoughtful about who we invite onto the team, and we know you’re evaluating us too. Before applying, take some time to explore this page and the rest of our website so you can get a genuine sense of whether TPG feels like the right fit for you.

We also read cover letters first, and a thoughtful one can make a meaningful difference.

You don’t need to write something overly formal or long. We’re much more interested in understanding who you are as a clinician, what kind of work energizes you, and what you might bring to the practice.

For clinical positions, strong applications often:

  • Explain how you actually use evidence-based practices rather than simply listing treatment modalities
  • Describe the clients or concerns you tend to do your best work with
  • Share any areas of specialty or developing expertise
  • Tell us what you’re looking for in your next professional home
  • Reference something specific about TPG that genuinely resonated with you

We’re not looking for a perfectly polished answer. We’re looking for thoughtfulness, clinical curiosity, and a sense that you’ve considered whether this could be a good match on both sides.

What W-2 Private Practice Actually Includes (No one keeps what they bill)

It’s easy to compare a private-practice session fee with an employee salary and assume independent practice must pay more.

After all, if you charge $200 for a session, you keep $200...right?

Not quite.

Gross revenue and personal income are two very different numbers.

An independent clinician is also the business owner. That means the money collected from sessions has to support everything surrounding the clinical work: taxes (including both the employee and employer portions of Social Security and Medicare), health insurance, retirement, unpaid time off, cancellations, administrative time, billing and collections, software, malpractice coverage, continuing education, marketing, referral development, website expenses, bookkeeping, and the inevitable costs of keeping a business running.

And then there is the work itself.

Finding new clients. Responding to inquiries. Following up with leads. Filling openings when someone terminates. Building referral relationships. Managing payments. Chasing payments. Solving technology problems. Spending the day on the phone on hold. Keeping the website visible. Figuring out why the phone suddenly stopped ringing.

Some clinicians genuinely enjoy that side of private practice. Independent practice can offer tremendous autonomy and, for the right person, meaningful financial upside.

But it is not the same job.

At TPG, you are not expected to build the business around your clinical work.

The practice takes responsibility for the infrastructure required to generate and support your caseload, including referral development, prospective-client inquiries, marketing, website and SEO strategy, billing systems, administrative support, technology, and practice operations.

For full-time employees, compensation also extends beyond the number printed on a paycheck. Depending on eligibility, our total employment package may include paid time off, sick time off, paid holidays, medical and dental insurance, retirement contributions, short term disability insurance, malpractice coverage, professional development support, and paid time for administrative and practice-development work.

We also absorb something that is easy to overlook: business risk.

When a new salaried clinician joins TPG with an empty caseload, we continue paying their salary while the practice works to fill it. When referrals slow down or cancellations increase, the salaried clinician’s paycheck does not suddenly disappear. The practice carries much of that uncertainty.

That is one of the fundamental differences between being an employee and being the owner of a private practice.

Neither model is inherently better.

Some clinicians want to own the business, make every decision themselves, and accept the additional work and financial risk in exchange for greater independence.

Others would rather spend more of their energy being excellent clinicians while a team handles much of what happens behind the scenes.

We built TPG for the second group.

The value of working here is not simply a salary or an hourly rate. It is the combination of compensation, benefits, infrastructure, support, shared resources, reduced business responsibility, and a team working every day to keep the machine around your clinical work running well.

Because the fairest comparison isn’t:

“What could I collect on my own?”

It’s:

“What would I actually earn, spend, manage, and be responsible for under each model?”
