Pros

Local management is very supportive; have all of the office assistance in getting clients checked in, insurance review, billing notices, medical records, etc. I just have to show up to see my clients and document! The front-desk staff are always ready to help with anything I need. There is great comeraderie at my location and peers that I can go to for informal consultation. Lifestance also has a prompt pay model, meaning you get paid for your work during that pay cycle and Lifestance will chase after insurance claims.

Cons

Some locations have minimal number of clinicians in-office as a lot of providers work from home so you can miss out on that in-office feeling
