Mental Health Therapist - Telehealth (Unrestricted LCSW, LMFT, LPC - Colorado)

Lyra is transforming mental health care through technology with a human touch to help people feel emotionally healthy at work and at home. We work with industry leaders, such as Morgan Stanley, Uber, Amgen, and other Fortune 500 companies, to improve access to effective, high-quality mental health care for their employees and their families. With our innovative digital care platform and global provider network, 20 million people can receive the best care and feel better, faster.

About the role

Lyra developed an innovative video therapy program called Lyra Care Therapy: blending live video sessions with between-session digital psychoeducation and customizable skill-building tools. With this program, you’ll have the resources and support needed to ensure that your clients get better—all while improving access to mental health care from your home or preferred setting.

As a Lyra Care Therapist, you’ll provide short-term, evidence-based treatment via live video, maintaining a caseload of diverse and varied clinical needs. You’ll assign digital lessons, videos, and assessments to enhance learning and monitor outcomes between sessions. Lyra's clients come from a multitude of different backgrounds and experiences, and we strive to meet their unique needs by delivering culturally responsive care.

You’ll attend one-on-one and peer group clinical consultation meetings, conduct peer-based quality assurance reviews, and participate in robust training to enhance your clinical skills. You’ll have access to expert consultation and support for complex clients, including specialty consultations and culturally responsive care resources.

This role is ideal for a licensed clinician with excellent interpersonal skills who values continuous learning and thrives in a feedback-rich environment. If you have experience with a comprehensive spectrum of mental health needs—from milder presentations to more complex and severe support—we encourage you to apply. Comfort with evolving processes and excitement about a rapidly growing business are key.
