We value the clinician
Seasoned clinicians will tell you - it is difficult to know how a private practice treats clinicians until you work there. We want our prospective employees to be confident - before you start - that we have your best interest at heart. We pride ourselves on being a clinician-centered practice, and we strive to create a healthy, collaborate, and balanced workplace. We encourage applicants to talk with current providers during the interview process, so that you can get a first-hand perspective of what it is like to work at WellSpring.

Current Position Announcements:
Full-Time Clinical Social Worker or Clinical Psychologist (September 2022):
WellSpring Child and Family Psychology, PC is a thriving psychotherapy practice (located an hour south of Washington, DC and an hour north of Richmond, VA) that provides services for children, adolescents, families, couples and adults in the Fredericksburg community. We strive to offer high quality, coordinated services for the entire family, as well as a number of innovative courses and groups
WellSpring is currently seeking a full-time (part-time options available) licensed therapist to provide high quality psychotherapy services to children, adolescents, and/or adults. Pre-licensed psychologists may also apply, provided all requirements for licensure have been met (except EPPP).
The candidate will have the flexibility to design a practice based on their areas of interest, which may include individual, family, and/or couples psychotherapy services, formal psychological and/or neurological assessment, groups, courses, or other programs of interest. Hours are flexible, and we work with each new employee to create a work-schedule that is sustainable and fulfilling.
The position offers a generous split-fee pay structure that allows employees to maximize earning potential. We employ W2 employees (not independent contractors), which offers potentially thousands in tax benefits each year to the employee. We also offer quality supervision/peer consultation, malpractice insurance, and optional health insurance coverage for full-time employees. We have noticed that many group practices inflate earning estimates in their job postings. While you could theoretically earn up to 200k at our practice, we encourage a more sustainable work-life balance. Our estimates, based on actual earnings of current full-time (30-35 clients per week) employees, are between 115k and 150k depending on licensure. Part time estimates are available upon request.
We work hard to promote a healthy and supportive work environment, and value the unique contributions that each clinician brings to the practice. The practice has a regular waitlist, strong community relations, and a steady referral base. New full-time providers generally reach full case loads in 1-2 months.
Minimum Requirements: A Master's or Doctoral degree in psychology, clinical social work, or counseling, and licensed in the state of Virginia (e.g., LPC, LMFT, LCSW, LCP). Prior experience and the ability to practice independently is required*. Experience and training in empirically supported treatments is highly valued. Pre-licensed psychologists may also apply, provided that all requirements for licensure have been met except for the licensure exam.
