About Lyra

Lyra Clinical Associates partners with Lyra Health, a leading provider of evidence-based mental health care, serving more than 20 million people globally in partnership with employers and more than 100 million through health plan and partner relationships. The company has delivered more than 15 million sessions of mental health care, published more than 35 peer-reviewed studies, and delivered unmatched outcomes in terms of access, clinical effectiveness, and cost efficiency. Lyra members have access to care in one day, and nine out of ten improve with the support of providers like you. Lyra is transforming access to life-changing mental health care through Lyra Empower, the only fully integrated, AI-powered platform combining the highest-quality care and technology solutions. You will be contracted by Lyra Clinical Associates.

About the Opportunity

Lyra’s provider network is composed of in-person and virtual therapists, physicians, and coaches across the US. With our advanced matching technology, supportive provider platform, and opportunities for training and clinical consultation, being part of our network is an incredible chance to do what you love (like client care) with support for the things you don’t love (like self promotion and scheduling).

This opportunity is a great fit if you’re an independently licensed clinical therapist interested in providing culturally responsive, evidence-based therapy for children, adults, couples, and/or families. We encourage clinicians to apply who have experience with caseloads that include a comprehensive spectrum of mental health needs, from milder presentations to more complex and severe support. This opportunity is a great fit for providers seeking well-matched and motivated clients, administrative and marketing support, and easy invoicing with quick payments. The ability to work with clients in person through your private or group practice is strongly preferred. We are looking for clinicians who are able to work with clients in these locations: Chesapeake.

Requirements:
  • Master’s or doctoral degree from a clinical track (e.g., MSW, MFT, MC, MMHC, PhD, PsyD)
  • Unrestricted LCSW, LMFT, LPC, PsyD, PhD, or equivalent license (i.e., able to work independently, without supervision from a licensed supervisor) without current, past, or pending disciplinary action
  • Experience and commitment to providing evidence-based treatments (e.g., ACT, CBT, CPT, DBT) and clinical best practices (e.g., measurement based care, promoting skills practice)
  • Ability to provide care to children, adults, couples, and/or families with a strong preference for in-person care delivery
  • Must have office space with ability to see clients in Virginia area
  • Experience managing risk and responding to clinical crises, as needed
  • Full-time resident of the United States
Here are some of the advantages to joining the Lyra provider network:
  • Connect with highly compatible clients thanks to Lyra’s powerful matching algorithm technology
  • Set your own schedule, without a minimum hours requirement
  • Let Lyra clients easily book appointments with the Lyra Calendar feature, which seamlessly integrates with your calendar
  • Focus less on the administrative burden of billing with Lyra’s paperless billing and quick payment turnaround
  • Access Lyra’s experienced clinical consultations team to get rapid support with your Lyra clients as well as access a range of specialty group consultation meetings
  • Have peace of mind with Lyra’s 24/7 Care Navigation team for crisis support
  • Upskill your knowledgebase with access to Lyra’s large collection of free and relevant CE credited courses approved by APA, ASWB, and NBCC
  • Stay in the know with monthly newsletters and robust Help Center resources just for Lyra providers
  • Access to exclusive provider events with Lyra’s clinical leaders
