The office space was clean.

Admin for this company make promises they do not intend to keep. They are not patient focused, do not care about providers, or even providing quality care. It is only about making money no matter what.

Pros

I can make my own weekly schedule and manage the weekly caseload as I see fit. I have the ability to schedule my work obligations around my family/personal needs. The fee-for-service format allows me to be as busy as I want to be. I work with all ages, so the ramp up time did not take long for me. The workplace culture is friendly and supportive. The staff is available during office hours if I need direct assistance. In the past, the hardest part of being a therapist was dealing with collections and no-show fees. LifeStance Health handles the billings and collections. I can now just focus on being a therapist and working with my clients. The most enjoyable part of the job is working alongside my peers. LifeStance Health is a fully inclusive company that handles therapy, testing, and if needed, med management.

Cons

Holidays and vacation time are not paid. The job would be excellent if they made this change and offered paid vacation and holidays.
