Caring for Our Caregivers

At Optimum Joy, we believe great care starts with you. That’s why we’ve built a workplace that prioritizes stability, growth, and balance—so you can focus on the work you love without sacrificing your well-being.

From competitive pay and full benefits to dedicated support and a team-driven culture, we invest in you just as you invest in your clients. When you’re supported, everyone thrives.

Core Benefits

Growth-Focused Compensation

We believe in growing together. Start with a reliable base pay plus commission and watch your earnings grow as your practice develops. Getting licensed, specializing, and building tenure at Optimum Joy all naturally increase your compensation.

Healthcare That Matters

Just as you help others prioritize their wellbeing, we help protect yours. Our full-time team members receive comprehensive medical coverage because your health is essential to the work you do.

Peace of Mind as a W-2 Employee

Focus on connecting with clients while we handle the complexities of taxes and employment benefits. As a W-2 employee, you'll have the security and simplicity you deserve.

Investing in Your Future

Your long-term wellbeing matters to us. Our 401(k) with up to 4% matching helps you build toward your future while making a difference in the present.

Space to Rest and Restore

We understand that quality care requires a refreshed mind. Earn paid time off with every clinical hour, and take it whenever you need to recharge.

Time to Fully Disconnect

True renewal needs dedicated time. That's why we close our doors (with full compensation) from December 24th through January 1st, plus other major holidays throughout the year including Juneteenth. Because sometimes the most important work is letting yourself rest.

Lifestyle Benefits

Shape Your Ideal Schedule

We believe work should fit into your life, not the other way around. Choose the hours that work best for you, whether in-person, remote, or a mix of both.

Work From Anywhere, Stay Connected

Life happens. Whether you’re relocating or just want more flexibility, you don’t have to start over. Many of our therapists have moved and kept right on working with us.

Supportive Systems

We believe your workday should feel structured, not stressful. Our policies and systems are built for stability, giving you the support and grounding you need to stay focused and confident.

Helping You Do Your Best Work, Every Day

We believe a fulfilling career goes beyond just seeing clients. It’s about having the right support, resources, and connections to do your best work.

  • Dedicated Support Staff – You focus on therapy, we handle the rest. Our intake team ensures you’re matched with clients who fit your specialties, while our administrative team manages payments efficiently so you never have to chase them down.

  • Team-Based Growth & Support – Every clinician is part of a supportive team, receiving career guidance and caseload management coaching to help you grow professionally and avoid burnout.

  • Seamless Internal Referrals – Our internal chat makes it easy to connect with fellow clinicians and receive referrals for the clients you’re most passionate about working with.

Marketing Designed for Your Growth and Stability

Not all therapy practices invest in a dedicated marketing and strategy expert—but we do. Your work is valuable, and we make sure the right people find you. With a full-time Digital Marketing & Strategy Director guiding growth, you have the security of a practice that’s always evolving, expanding, and connecting with those who need care.

A Steady Stream of Clients

You don’t have to worry about finding clients. We actively bring them to you, so you can focus on providing care, not self-promotion.

Aligned with Your Passions

Want to specialize in a certain area? We help attract the clients you’re most excited to work with, making your caseload more fulfilling.

A Stable, Growing Practice

We don’t just maintain; we grow. With strategic marketing and business development, we ensure this is a place where you can build a long-term career.
