Netherlands - Mental Health Counselor - Remote

Who are we and why should you join us?

BetterHelp is on a mission to remove the traditional barriers to therapy and make mental health care more accessible to everyone. Founded in 2013, we are now the world’s largest online therapy service – providing affordable and convenient therapy in 210 countries and over 60 languages across the globe. Our network of over 30,000 licensed therapists have helped millions of people take ownership of their mental health and change their lives forever.

What are we looking for?

We are expanding in The Netherlands and are looking for remote counselors and psychologists to join our network. This is a unique opportunity to help launch our services in these countries, delivering high-quality care while assisting with platform feedback and localization. Counselors in these countries can focus on clinical expertise while we handle everything else, from client acquisition to billing.

What You'll Do:

• Maintain a caseload during a 90-day contract (approximately 30 hours per week).
• Participate in platform localization efforts by providing feedback.
• Collaborate with our product and engineering teams to address any platform issues pre- and post-launch.
• Continue as an independent counselor on the BetterHelp platform after the 90-day contract.

Who Should Apply:

• Counselors who are looking for the flexibility to conduct therapy from anywhere.
• Counselors looking for an easy, all-in-one technology platform for telehealth.
• Counselors who want to focus on clinical work – not on acquiring clients, billing, or support (we take care of all that!).
• Counselors who want a feature-rich platform that offers more than just video conferencing, including tools like clinical worksheets, goal setting, and more.
• Counselors who prioritize discretion and confidentiality, and seek a state-of-the-art technology platform with robust security measures. 

Requirements

• 3+ years of counseling experience.
• Credentialed to practice as a WO-psycholoog (university education psychologist), Integrative Counselor, Psychosocial Counselor or Psychosocial Therapist. 
• A private, professional environment to conduct therapy.
• Excellent written communication.
• A reliable internet connection.
• Must be able to speak English and Dutch.

Benefits

• Client referrals: Your desired caseload can be established within 30-60 days.
• Competitive compensation. 
• Engaged clients: Work with clients who match your expertise, using a variety of communication tools, from live sessions to video and audio messages.

Additional Details:

• This is an independent contractor role with a 90-day contract, starting in mid-November. Compensation is guaranteed and paid out weekly. Once the contract is completed, you can continue as an independent counselor on the platform.
• Counselors are not BetterHelp employees but work as independent contractors.
