Licensed Psychologist, LMHC, LMFT, or LCSW | South Tampa
Tampa Therapy is seeking a licensed clinician to join our boutique, private-pay psychotherapy practice. This 1099 independent contractor position offers annual compensation potential of $80,000–$110,000, depending on caseload size and license type, along with clinical autonomy, established referrals, and comprehensive administrative support.
Why Join Tampa Therapy?
For more than a decade, Tampa Therapy has built a reputation as one of Tampa Bay’s most recognized, respected, and sought-after private psychotherapy practices. Our name reflects exceptional clinical care, professionalism, and a thoughtfully designed client experience.
Being part of our team carries meaning. You become associated with the standards we uphold, the quality of our clinicians, and the reputation we’ve spent years earning. We are intentionally selective because every clinician we welcome helps shape that reputation.
We have remained boutique by choice. Our practice is privately owned and actively led by a licensed psychologist who understands the realities of clinical work. We value depth of expertise, thoughtful treatment, meaningful progress, and lasting relationships—with our clients and with one another.
The Private Practice Career—With the Support Already Built In
For many therapists, an established private practice is the dream. We’ve built the referrals, infrastructure, and professional reputation that allow you to focus on providing excellent care.
We manage marketing, scheduling, billing, technology, and daily operations. You bring your clinical expertise and enjoy the autonomy of private practice without taking on the expense and administrative burden of operating one yourself.
Our entirely private-pay model attracts clients who intentionally seek out our practice and invest in their treatment. We support that care with manageable caseloads and a collegial environment where clinicians consult, collaborate, and have direct access to leadership.
What We Provide
- Established referral base and ongoing marketing.
- Scheduling, administrative support, telephone answering, and payment processing.
- Fully furnished, upscale offices designed for comfort and professionalism.
- Electronic health record and practice management software.
- Clinical autonomy, collaborative colleagues, and accessible psychologist leadership.
- Annual compensation potential of $80,000–$110,000, depending on caseload size and license type.
- Flexible clinical blocks and attainable performance bonuses.
Clinicians should be prepared to begin with at least eight weekly clients and grow toward 24–30 clients per week, depending on their capacity and financial goals. We believe excellent therapy requires time, attention, and clinicians who feel supported in their work.
Build a Career With Us
We invest significant time, referrals, marketing, and resources into each clinician who joins us. We’re looking for someone who is equally interested in building a lasting professional relationship.
This opportunity is designed for clinicians who want the independence, financial rewards, and clinical fulfillment of private practice within an established team. It is not intended as a temporary stop while building a separate practice.
If you want a place to plant roots, contribute your expertise, and feel proud of the practice your name is associated with, we’d love to meet you.

- Anxiety and depression.
- Self-esteem concerns.
- Couples and relationship concerns.

- Life transitions and emotional burnout.
EMDR training or certification is highly desirable. Experience with children and adolescents, and previous private practice experience are preferred.
Applicants must hold an active Florida license as a Psychologist, LMHC, LMFT, or LCSW, be in good standing with their licensing board, and carry professional liability insurance before starting.
Clinicians who currently own or actively practice in another private practice within the Tampa Bay area will not be considered unless desiring to fully join our team.

Psychologist Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a psychologist in Florida?
To become a licensed psychologist in Florida, you must earn a doctoral degree in psychology from a regionally accredited program, complete a supervised internship, and pass both the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP) and Florida's jurisprudence exam. Licensure is issued by the Florida Board of Psychology under the Department of Health. Most employers require the active license before your start date, though some postdoctoral roles allow you to work under supervision while completing the process.
Which companies hire psychologists in Florida?
Employers hiring psychologists in Florida right now include Harmony United Psychiatric Care, Centurion Health, and Telos Health Systems, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Florida's large VA medical centers, hospital-based behavioral health units, and state-contracted community mental health organizations account for a significant share of the consistent openings.
Which Florida cities have the most psychologist jobs?
Jacksonville, Ocala, and Tampa have the most psychologist openings in Florida. Miami and Orlando's large hospital networks, VA facilities, and diverse community mental health systems drive much of the volume, while Tampa's combination of academic medical centers and military-affiliated programs keeps steady demand concentrated in that corridor as well.
Are there remote psychologist jobs in Florida?
Yes, but they are more limited than in purely desk-based fields, since much psychologist work involves in-person assessment, testing, and direct clinical contact. About 51% of psychologist openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting real but selective availability. Telehealth therapy and psychological consulting roles are the positions most commonly offered with remote or hybrid flexibility.
How can I get hired as a psychologist in Florida with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a postdoctoral associate or psychology resident position, which Florida employers such as VA medical centers and university health systems use to bring new doctoral graduates on before full licensure. Lateral openings in psychological testing technician or behavioral health specialist roles at community mental health agencies also offer a foothold. Completing your Florida licensure application early and building assessment experience during your internship gives candidates a clear edge in a competitive postdoctoral market.
Where can I find and apply to psychologist jobs in Florida?
You can find and apply to psychologist jobs in Florida on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the state. Find roles that match your specialty and experience level and apply directly to the ones that fit.
