Bring your practice into a professional home.

Council for Relationships (CFR) is seeking a licensed therapist (LMFT, LCSW, LPC, or Psychologist) to join our clinical community in a part-time hybrid role in Philadelphia.

This role is designed for clinicians who already have a client caseload or referral network and are looking for a professional home that offers support, community, and infrastructure - without sacrificing clinical autonomy.

Many experienced clinicians reach a point where they want the freedom of private practice without the isolation or administrative burden of running a business alone. CFR provides a stable professional container where clinicians can focus on clinical work while benefiting from a collaborative community and institutional support.

Founded in 1932, Council for Relationships is a nonprofit organization dedicated to relationship-focused therapy, clinician education, and accessible mental healthcare for diverse communities throughout the Philadelphia region.
