Job Description:
About the Role
Lyra developed an innovative video therapy program called Lyra Care
Therapy: blending live video sessions with between-session digital
psychoeducation and customizable skill building tools. We also have
a powerful program called Lyra Renew, specializing in substance use
and mental health recovery. This role combines the strengths and
benefits of these two programs, providing resources and support to
ensure that your clients get better-all while improving access to
mental health care from your home or preferred setting.
Daily: As a Lyra Care Therapist, you'll provide short-term,
evidence-based outpatient treatment via live video. You'll assign
digital lessons, videos, and assessments to your clients to enhance
learnings and monitor outcomes between sessions.
In addition to the core Lyra Care Therapist role working with
diverse mental health presentations for 80% of caseload, Renew
therapists work in our interdisciplinary team providing specialized
outpatient substance use support for 20% of caseload. You will have
the flexibility to dedicate more of your caseload to substance use
treatment to further diversify your clinical work, according to
your interests.
An important note: Lyra's clients come from a multitude of
different backgrounds and experiences, and have varying needs and
abilities. We strive to continue to meet their unique needs by
delivering culturally responsive care-an approach that accounts for
the impact of cultural backgrounds on each person's care
experience. In Renew, we recognize that words matter in the mission
to overcome societal and healthcare stigma around alcohol and
substance use. We intentionally use language and communication to
destigmatize treatment and promote our clients' overall well-being
within their cultural context.
Regularly: Our Lyra Care therapists enjoy connecting with their
peers. You will find instant community with other providers from
AUD/SUD training backgrounds (inpatient, outpatient, acute
settings) who share a passion for providing evidence-based care.
You'll attend one-on-one and peer group clinical consultation
meetings. You'll attend a Renew multidisciplinary team meeting,
where you'll have access to medical consultations with an expert
physician. You'll attend ongoing, robust training to enhance your
clinical skills, including Renew workshops on AUD/SUD clinical
topics.
You always have a team behind you if a crisis comes up. You're
never alone, even while working remotely within the US.
This role is a great fit if you're a California licensed clinician
with experience in addiction treatment from a clinical setting, or
have training in substance use treatment, who would like to join
our interdisciplinary team providing specialized substance use
support through individual outpatient teletherapy sessions. If you
would enjoy a balanced caseload of clients with diverse mental
health presentations (80%) and those with primary AUD treatment
needs (20%), then this role is for you!
Renew clients are part of our outpatient program working with Lyra
therapists and physicians to develop the best treatment plan. Renew
clients have peer recovery support through groups and 1:1 meetings
to enhance their care. Requirements:
As a full-time Licensed Mental Health Therapist, you will be
employed by Lyra Clinical Associates P.C. We manage the business
operations so you can focus on providing high-quality mental health
care. Here are just some of our perks and benefits:
We hear it a lot-that therapists are going through unsustainable
pressure. Roles are changing, balance is disappearing, and burnout
feels like it's here to stay. Here are some of the practices,
perks, and benefits Lyra offers to support our therapists' wellness
and resiliency:
The anticipated starting base salary for this role is $84,000
annually. The base salary is determined by role, and placement
within the range and will depend on a number of job-related
factors, including but not limited to your skills, qualifications
and location.
At Lyra, base salary is only one aspect of an employee's total
compensation package, which may additionally include annual
variable performance-based compensation earnings of on average
$22,000, discretionary restricted stock unit awards, comprehensive
healthcare coverage, retirement benefits and time off with pay. The
role may also be eligible for a discretionary bonus.
Please note that although our application mentions a cover letter,
we do not require a cover letter in order to be considered for this
role.
