Part Time Counselor/Therapist Flexible Schedule, Supportive, lots of autonomy

Join Dawn Star Counseling – A place to call home

Dawn Star Counseling is my baby.

For me, It's not enough to do amazing therapy every day, and help dozens of people make the changes they need to rebuild their lives. I want to do more. And agency work is the part of this. Instead of taking excellent care of 30 clients and empowering them to be successful, I want to take a handful of fantastic therapists, and empower you! A therapist with resources and supportive management can help more people and have the stability for long-lasting community change.

I'm new to buisness ownership. Dawn Star Counseling has been open for two years and already has more referrals than we can keep up with. We provide evidence-based individual and couples therapy and family therapy. We will soon move into community activities, connection groups, and Wilderness therapy retreats.

To keep up with demand and expand services, we’re looking for one licensed clinician in the Idaho Falls/Ammon area who wants meaningful work in a supportive, slightly over-caffeinated environment. You could work entirely online- so you don't necessarily have to be in this area.

For therapists who want to focus on clinical work without drowning in admin

  • Competitive session pay – $50 per one-hour session (1099) or $45 per one hour session if it's W2
  • Performance-based bonus stipend – Earn additional 15% bonus monthly when documentation is timely and complete. Bonuses can include funding towards professional expenses (insurance, licensing, CEUs, training, etc.), essentially designing your own benefit package.
  • Many Health Insurance Optiosn: Not everyone needs insurance, but if you do, we offer it. We have several plans to chose from -, including dental and vision.
  • Flexible caseload and schedule – You decide how many clients you see, in person or via telehealth.
  • Fully supported infrastructure – HIPAA-compliant EHR, scheduling, billing, telehealth platform, office space, and snacks, drinks included
  • Community programs – Lead or co-facilitate peer-support groups, connection activities, and new programs launching soon
  • Supervision and mentorship – Regular support for growth

About Us

Our mission is to create a thriving therapeutic community where both clinicians and clients flourish. We believe counseling should be financially sustainable, flexible, and—dare we say—fun. If you’re an LCSW, LPC, LMFT, LCPC, LMSW, or similar professional looking for a home where you can either focus on what you love or step into leadership, we’d love to hear from you.

in your application please include a paragraph about what excites you, something quirky, or curious or interesting that is not therapy related :-D

Thanks!
