Previ | Remote | Part-time
About Previ
Previ helps psychiatric and therapy clinicians practice independently, without the administrative burden of running a practice alone. Previ helps clinicians get in-network with insurance companies and handle RCM, at no cost to the clinician.
The role
We’re looking for an experienced clinician-leader to oversee clinical quality for a growing team of psychiatric providers and therapists. You’ll be the clinical voice of the team. You’ll make sure our providers deliver excellent, evidence-based care, are supported and supervised, and meet payer and regulatory standards.
The people who thrive in this role have usually built something themselves. Many are founders or owners of small group practices who know what it takes to run a clinical team, work with commercial insurers, and keep quality high as a practice grows. Oftentimes this is a great second income for someone who currently runs a small group practice.
What you’ll do
- Provide clinical oversight and supervision for a team of psychiatric NPs, physicians, and/or therapists.
- Review charts and outcomes regularly, and give constructive feedback.
- Develop and maintain clinical protocols, care pathways, and escalation procedures.
- Serve as a resource on complex cases, risk assessment, and collaborative care.
- Partner with our operations team on credentialing, payer requirements, and compliance.
- Help shape how the team grows: hiring, case mix, and service lines.
What we’re looking for
- An active, unrestricted license in any state: MD/DO (psychiatry), PMHNP, licensed psychologist, LCSW, or LPC.
- 2+ years of clinical experience
- Experience working with commercial insurers (e.g., BCBS , Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna)
- A strong commitment to quality care and a practical, supportive leadership style.
Strongly preferred
- Founder, owner, or clinical director of a group practice that accepts insurance.
- An entrepreneurial mindset and a "figure-it-out" attitude
Compensation and commitment
- $1,000 - $3,000/mo
- 1-5 hours/week
- Flexible hours (work on your time), remote
Pay: $1,000.00 - $3,000.00 per month
Benefits:
- Flexible schedule
- Referral program
License/Certification:
- MD/DO, PMHNP, licensed psychologist, LCSW, or LPC license (Required)

Tips for Your Remote Lead Therapist Job Search
Prove your remote clinical leadership skills
Remote employers want evidence you can supervise clinicians and manage caseloads without in-person check-ins. Document specific examples of leading remote team huddles, completing electronic case reviews asynchronously, and mentoring junior therapists through video or messaging tools.
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote lead therapist openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your licensure and specialty and apply directly before postings fill. Checking daily during an active search moves you ahead of slower applicants.
Sharpen your async written communication
Remote lead therapists communicate clinical decisions, supervision notes, and team feedback almost entirely in writing. Practice writing clear, concise case summaries and staff guidance that read well without verbal context, since remote hiring managers often evaluate writing samples before scheduling interviews.
Prepare for remote clinical supervision interviews
Remote lead therapist interviews often include scenario questions about managing ethical issues, clinician performance, or crisis situations without physical presence. Prepare concrete examples of how you have handled clinical emergencies or staff conflicts through video calls or secure messaging platforms.
Remote Lead Therapist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote lead therapist job?
Remote lead therapist roles go to candidates who can demonstrate clinical leadership and self-direction without in-person oversight. Telehealth companies and distributed behavioral health platforms screen for strong asynchronous communication, comfort with electronic health record systems, and the ability to supervise junior clinicians remotely. Highlighting experience with video-based therapy, remote team coordination, and independent caseload management gives your application a clear edge.
Which companies hire remote lead therapists?
Remote lead therapist roles are posted by Ellie Mental Health, Nabi, and PREVI and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These include remote-first telehealth platforms, distributed employee assistance program providers, and digital mental health companies that staff clinical teams entirely online.
Can you get a remote lead therapist job with no experience?
Yes, but remote lead therapist roles are harder to land without experience because you must manage clinical responsibilities and junior staff with minimal hands-on support. Entry paths include remote associate therapist positions at telehealth startups, supervised remote internships through digital mental health platforms, and contract clinical roles that build independent caseload skills. Demonstrating strong written case notes and comfort with video sessions can substitute for years on a resume.
Do you need a degree for remote lead therapist jobs?
Usually, yes. Most remote lead therapist roles require at minimum a master's degree in counseling, social work, or a related clinical field, plus an active state licensure. Remote employers do weigh practical clinical hours, supervision credentials, and demonstrated telehealth competency alongside your degree, so applied experience with distributed teams strengthens an application considerably.
