Licensed Therapist (LPC) - Hybrid | Loveland, CO

OUR PHILOSOPHY

The conditions your clients need to heal are the same conditions you need to do this work well. That belief is at the heart of Live Your Life Counseling.

Our work is built on a clear philosophy of healing. Healing isn't about fixing what's broken or forcing yourself to move on. It's about loosening the grip of past experiences that make life feel constricted. It's about helping people feel safer, more settled, and less driven by survival so they have more freedom, more choice, and more access to the lives they want to live.

That philosophy doesn't stop with our clinical work; it shapes how we run our practice.

We believe clinicians do their best work when they aren't chronically overextended or living in survival mode themselves. We keep caseloads manageable and compensate our clinicians fairly. We actively resist the hustle culture that treats burnout as a badge of honor. A clinician who is exhausted and overwhelmed can't consistently offer safety, presence, and care. If those conditions are essential for healing, then it's our responsibility to create them for the people doing the work.

We also believe that your long-term goals matter. We want this role to support your growth, not limit it. If your time here helps you build confidence, deepen your skills, clarify your direction, or expand how you serve your community, we see that as a success, for you and for the people whose lives you'll continue to impact.

THE ROLE

We're looking for a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Colorado to join our small, collaborative team.

You'll carry an adult caseload, seen in person and via telehealth, with full administrative and clinical support. The minimum expectation is 24 completed client hours per week. In practice, most clinicians book around 28 sessions to comfortably land there, accounting for typical cancellations. You have control over your schedule and how you structure your week to meet this goal.

We're committed to making care as accessible as possible, including accepting insurance. That means you'll work with a broad, varied adult caseload across different backgrounds, life circumstances, and clinical presentations.

You'll also have access to an AI-assisted note-taking tool at no cost to you. We think carefully about how AI fits into our work, with attention to client privacy, clinician autonomy, and best clinical practices, and we support ongoing learning around its appropriate use in care.

COMPENSATION

$45 per completed client hour, regardless of insurance mix

For each client hour you complete, you're automatically paid an additional 15 minutes at $25/hour. This compensation is built into your pay; you don't need to track or justify it. It's our way of honestly accounting for the work that surrounds sessions but isn't visible inside them: documentation, scheduling, and client coordination. Quarterly all-staff meetings are also paid time at your admin rate.

At the minimum caseload of 24 client hours per week, total gross annual compensation is approximately $69,000 - $71,000, including pay, benefits, and employer contributions. Clinicians who choose to carry a higher caseload will earn more.

BENEFITS

Paid Time Off

• Two weeks of paid vacation

• Automatic 3% employer 401(k) contribution, whether or not you contribute yourself

Health Insurance

• We contribute $400/month, which can be used for eligible insurance premiums and most out-of-pocket medical, dental, vision, prescription, and mental health costs, provided you have qualifying health coverage

Professional Development

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Credentials

• Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado

Who You Are

You're licensed and still deeply invested in your growth. You seek out consultation, stay curious about your work, and don't let credentials become a ceiling. You know you bring real skill to the therapy room, and you want to keep sharpening it.

You understand your limits and respect them. You believe that sustainable practice requires protecting your own well-being, not just your clients'. You set boundaries because you take this work seriously.

You're comfortable working with a diverse adult client population across a wide range of backgrounds, life circumstances, and clinical needs. You share our belief that quality mental health care should be as accessible as possible.

You'll thrive in a small, collaborative environment. You're able to work with a high degree of autonomy while also showing up reliably for the team around you.
