Entry Level Therapist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level therapist job?
Entry level therapist roles typically look for a relevant degree, completed practicum or internship hours, and any required licensure or supervised practice credentials for your state. Candidates who can show direct client contact hours, a supervisor reference, and familiarity with common therapeutic modalities stand out at this stage. Applying to practices that explicitly list 'new grads welcome' or '0 to 2 years experience' keeps your search focused.
Which companies hire entry level therapists?
Companies hiring entry level therapists right now include Ivy Rehab Network, Optum, and Preferred Therapy Solutions, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Hiring at this level tends to come from community mental health centers, outpatient clinics, school districts, and healthcare systems that have established supervision structures for early-career clinicians.
Are there remote entry level therapist jobs?
Yes, though most entry level therapy roles are still on-site given supervision requirements. About 6% of entry level therapist openings are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and these positions are most common in telehealth platforms and larger behavioral health organizations that have built infrastructure for remotely supervising pre-licensed clinicians.
Are these new grad therapist jobs?
Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior therapist roles. A posting is generally new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts internship or practicum hours toward requirements, or accepts candidates who are pre-licensed and working toward full licensure under supervision. Filtering for those terms helps you find the right fit quickly.
Which industries hire the most entry level therapists?
Entry Level therapist roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services, Education, and Science & Research, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Those sectors tend to drive early-career hiring because they maintain supervision frameworks, funded training pipelines, or regulatory mandates that make bringing on pre-licensed and newly licensed clinicians both practical and necessary.
