Pre-Licensed Therapist / Counselor (Supervisee in Social Work/LMSW, Resident in Counseling, or Resident in Marriage & Family Therapy)

Overview Allswell is building the leading mental health services company for the LGBTQ+ community. Affirming, high-quality care for this population is still hard to find and harder to afford, and we are addressing that need with a diverse team of clinicians trained in LGBTQ+-affirming practices and specialty care, digital tools that makes our clinicians more effective, and insurance coverage that puts real care within reach. The clinical outcomes are strong and the growth is fast. Since launching we have served hundreds of clients across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC, in-network with Medicaid and major commercial plans in all three regions. 79% of clients report reduced depression (based on PHQ-9 scores) and 72% report reduced anxiety (based on GAD-7 scores) after 60 or more days of care. We are expanding our services and footprint quickly, and building the team to match. Backed by leading healthcare and impact investors, we have the runway to do it right.

Our care model uses gold standard approaches to address the unique needs of the LGBTQ+ community. Developed with leading clinical experts in trauma-informed and LGBTQ+ care, it pairs affirming, evidence-based treatment with proprietary tools that extend care beyond the session. Chief among them is our Trauma Journal, a structured Written Exposure Therapy-inspired tool that supports clients with trauma-related presenting concerns between visits and deepens the impact of their therapy work. This is what allows our clinicians to deliver the outcomes above, and it is a core part of what makes practicing at Allswell different.
