Pros
I think the pay is fair in MD- $79 an hour for face-to-face therapy by video. $87 for intake session. The ease of working from home can't be beat. I work part-time and I had to stop taking client. People are in dire straits post-pandemic and they are hungry for help. I didn't have to hustle for my clients like SonderMind suggests that we do (trying to make 3 contacts with a person that is only vaguely interested in counseling is a waste of time)! I like the diversity of the clients. Most of my clients are folks struggling with anxiety. I like the note taking system and I appreciate them making it easy for us, yet legally responsible. You don't have to wait for the insurance company to bless your notes; SonderMind pays you upfront. SonderMind pays for no-shows. I am grateful to work for SonderMind!
Cons
Ideally, we as counselors and social workers would be making 3 figures an hour. It took a couple months for me to be working due to the insurance verification systems (not SonderMind's fault) but I consider it a blessing to be connected with insurance companies now.
