Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Licensed Therapist
Verify your credentials meet state licensure requirements
Each U.S. state sets its own Licensed Therapist requirements, and many require a master's degree plus supervised hours. Confirm your Australian qualifications meet the destination state's board requirements before approaching employers, or your E-3 specialty occupation claim may not hold.
Target employers already filing Labor Condition Applications
Behavioral health networks, hospital systems, and federally qualified health centers regularly file LCAs for therapist roles. Searching DOL's OFLC disclosure data by occupation code filters employers who have navigated this process before, saving you from educating a hiring team from scratch.
Search E-3 sponsorship roles on Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate surfaces Licensed Therapist listings from employers who actively sponsor E-3 visas, so you're not filtering through roles that will stall at the visa question. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork once you have an offer.
Address the specialty occupation question in your cover letter
Licensed Therapist roles must require a specific bachelor's or higher-level degree, not just any degree. If the job posting says 'degree preferred,' ask the employer to revise it to 'degree required in counseling, psychology, or a related field' before the LCA is submitted to DOL.
Clarify your E-3 timeline with the hiring team early
E-3 consular processing typically takes two to six weeks once the LCA is certified. Employers unfamiliar with the E-3 often assume it takes as long as an H-1B. Setting accurate expectations at the offer stage prevents rescinded start dates and unnecessary delays.
Prepare your AHPRA registration records for the visa interview
U.S. consular officers reviewing E-3 applications for therapist roles will expect evidence of your professional credentials. Bring your AHPRA registration certificate alongside your Australian degree transcripts and any supervised practice documentation to support the specialty occupation determination.

Find Licensed Therapist JobsLicensed Therapist E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Licensed Therapist jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Use Migrate Mate to search Licensed Therapist listings from employers who sponsor E-3 visas. Most general job boards mix sponsored and non-sponsored roles without filtering by visa type, which wastes time. Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals on the E-3 path, so every result reflects employers open to sponsorship.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Licensed Therapist role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the position specifically requires a bachelor's degree or higher in counseling, psychology, social work, or a directly related field. The key is that the degree requirement must be tied to the role itself, not just preferred. If a job posting accepts any degree field, the employer may need to strengthen the job description before the DOL certifies the LCA.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Licensed Therapist roles?
The E-3 is available only to Australian citizens, but it has no annual cap and no lottery, so you don't wait for a random draw that selects roughly one in five applicants. For Licensed Therapist roles, both visas require a specialty occupation determination, but the E-3 can be applied for at any time of year and renewed indefinitely, making long-term career planning far more predictable.
Can I switch employers on an E-3 while working as a Licensed Therapist?
Yes, but you need a new LCA certified by the DOL and a new visa stamp reflecting your new employer before you start the new role. Unlike the H-1B portability rule, the E-3 does not allow you to begin working for a new employer while a petition is pending. Plan for a two-to-six-week transition window and confirm your new employer is prepared to file promptly.
