TEACHES HOW TO START YOUR JOURNEY AS AN ONLINE THERAPIST
Confidently step into the world of teletherapy–in just 20 minutes. In this free video series with LHT Director of Clinical Services Erin O'Connell, you'll learn what you need for online sessions and what to look for when choosing a job as a teletherapist.
1099 VS W2 WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
If you didn't know already, most online therapy companies hire therapists as 1099 contractors rather than W-2 employees. In this video, we cover some of the differences between these two forms of work.
DON'T GO AT IT ALONE - EXPERIENCE THE SUPPORT YOU DESERVE
One big difference between brick and mortar and teletherapy is that teletherapy support is much more accessible. At Lighthouse Therapy, we keep therapists connected through group chats which allows them to get feedback in an instant. We also assign mentors to help answer questions, and we have monthly round table discussions to provide additional support.
HOW TO SET YOUR OWN SCHEDULE
When you are a contractor instead of an employee, you have many more freedoms. One of which is being fully in charge of your schedule. You get to choose how many hours you work as well your availability.
WHAT TECH IS NEEDED?
Besides a computer and mouse, several tools will make your life easier as an online therapist. We cover the list of items that will make working from home a breeze.
HONESTY AND EXPECTATIONS - UNDERSTAND YOUR CONTRACT AND AVOID FEELING CHEATED
Contracts can feel overwhelming, and the legalese can be confusing. In this short class, Erin explains how to avoid ambiguous language, set payment terms, and watch out for line items you can't bill for.
