-There is a HUGE discrepancy in what you actually receive in terms of pay and what is presented during interviews & what Lifestance continues to advertise as far as compensation. Compensation is insulting for the amount of work required and the licensing/experience they require -Billing department is terrible and extremely rude towards clients. They incorrectly bill clients. The poor billing and business practices then negatively reflect upon the therapist. There's a reason LifeStance is being investigated due to client complaints of illegal billing practices and for violating federal securities laws -They say you have flexibility and control over your schedule but in reality you have no autonomy. They completely ignore your schedule & will over-schedule you despite saying you are closed to new clients -Office staff does not keep up with collecting payments from self-pay clients which leads to you not being paid until Lifestance is paid -Lack of racially and culturally diverse providers as well as a lack of cultural awareness & competency in staff, policies, and leadership -You're required to attend meetings and complete administrative tasks that you're not compensated for
