Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) - Teletherapy

September 26, 2026

Amwell Medical Group (AMG), in partnership with Amwell, is a cutting-edge telehealth clinical practice that is seeking licensed mental health counselors (LMHC) to join our Behavioral Health program remotely on a contract basis to diagnose and treat client referrals. AMG clinicians provide mental, behavioral, and emotional guidance on our state-of-the-art HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform.

Our program’s goal is to build a bridge for providers to connect and deliver high-quality mental healthcare to clients across the country. Our longstanding partnerships with health plans, health systems and employer programs allow providers to increase their client population and expand access to vital health services. There are no fees or cost to the provider to join and start receiving referrals.

This is a work from home position. Appointments are scheduled in advance, based on the availability set in the platform by the provider. Providers are in complete control of their schedule, with client demand – see clients morning or evening, weekday or weekend, whatever works best for you!

Focus on clients and we’ll take care of the rest.
