Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)

Location: Gainesville, GA or Norcross/Gwinnett County, GA

Employer: First Integrative Consulting Services

First Integrative Consulting Services is growing and seeking a fully licensed Georgia LPC who wants steady referrals, strong administrative support, meaningful clinical work, and a compensation model that rewards productivity.

You should be able to focus on being a clinician—not spend your evenings marketing for clients, chasing claims, or trying to build a caseload from scratch.

We provide the infrastructure. You bring the clinical skill.

Compensation

This is a full-time, hourly W-2 position—not a salaried position.

• Direct clinical services: $40–$48/hour, based on experience, specialty expertise, and qualifications
• Administrative/indirect clinical work: $20/hour
• Standard full-time workweek: Up to 40 hours
• Typical productivity model: Approximately 30 direct clinical hours plus up to 10 hours of required administrative/indirect work
• Estimated annual earnings at full productivity: Approximately $68,000–$78,000+, depending on direct-service rate, productivity, actual hours worked, PTO, and other applicable paid time

Administrative/indirect time includes required documentation, treatment planning, care coordination, meetings, supervision, authorized travel between work locations, and other required non-direct clinical responsibilities.

Clinicians who complete required administrative responsibilities efficiently may use available work hours for additional direct clinical services, creating a clear opportunity to increase earnings within the standard 40-hour workweek.

Overtime must be authorized in accordance with agency policy.

The Role

Our clinicians provide outpatient behavioral-health services to children, adolescents, adults, and families.

Depending on your caseload, services may be provided:

• In one of our clinical offices
• In local schools
• Via telehealth when clinically appropriate
• In approved community settings

This is not exclusively a school-based position, but clinicians must be comfortable seeing a portion of their caseload in local schools.

You will be assigned primarily to one FICS location—Gainesville or Norcross/Gwinnett—rather than routinely traveling between both offices.

What You’ll Do

You will:

• Provide evidence-based individual and/or family therapy
• Maintain an active and productive caseload
• Complete timely and clinically appropriate progress notes, treatment plans, and other required documentation
• Coordinate care with parents, schools, probation officers, DFCS, physicians, and other community partners when clinically appropriate
• Participate in required team meetings, consultation, training, and supervision
• Follow up appropriately with clients regarding cancellations and continuity of care
• Maintain accurate scheduling availability
• Provide some school- and community-based services as assigned

What We Provide

FICS provides the infrastructure clinicians need to maintain a strong practice without having to build one from scratch.

We provide:

• Established referral sources and consistent referral support
• Credentialing and payer-enrollment support
• Billing and claims-management support
• Administrative and scheduling infrastructure
• Electronic health record system
• Furnished clinical office space
• Clinical consultation and team support
• School, court, and community partnerships
• Paid administrative/indirect work as outlined in the compensation structure
• Paid time off for eligible full-time employees
• Eligible business-mileage reimbursement for approved school/community travel
• Opportunities for professional growth and future leadership

QualificationsRequired

• Active Georgia Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) license in good standing
• Master’s degree in counseling or a related behavioral-health field
• Ability to independently provide clinical services within scope of practice
• Strong clinical and documentation skills
• Ability to appropriately manage an active caseload
• Reliable transportation for assigned school/community services
• Strong communication and organizational skills
• Commitment to ethical, trauma-informed, culturally responsive care

Experience We Especially Value

Experience with one or more of the following is a plus:

• Children and adolescents
• Trauma
• Family therapy
• Juvenile justice and court-involved youth
• School-based mental health
• Substance use
• Anger management
• Behavioral concerns
• LGBTQ+ affirming care
• Community behavioral health

Who Tends to Thrive Here

This role is a strong fit for clinicians who want the stability of W-2 employment while maintaining meaningful control over productivity and earning potential.

We value clinicians who work independently, communicate when they need support, maintain strong documentation, manage their caseload responsibly, and understand that excellent clinical care and accountability can coexist.

FICS provides the referrals, infrastructure, billing support, administrative systems, and community relationships necessary to maintain a strong caseload.

You bring the clinical expertise.
