Clinical Psychology

The Utah Center for Psychological Services is a growing private practice that specializes in psychological evaluations. We are looking for a licensed psychologist to join our team in providing high quality psychological and neuropsychological evaluations. This is a part-time independent contractor position, meaning you may choose your hours and work schedule. You may also conduct most work from home, as there is an option to conduct intake and feedback sessions via telehealth, and report writing may be done from home. Compensation is provided on a commission-based model, wherein contractors are paid 70% of the total revenue brought in by their work. There is some variation in total hourly pay due to differences in insurance reimbursement rates, but typically, pay is between $70-$100/hour.

The ideal candidate would be able to complete two to six evaluations per month, with option to increase this caseload over time, if desired. Additionally, the ideal candidate would be well-versed in conducting ADHD and autism evaluations, as these make up the bulk of our referrals. However, clinicians should also be familiar with trauma-informed care and diagnosis, as this is often an underlying issue for many of our clients. While we respect and value your autonomy, we also value collaboration and are always happy to consult on cases.

UCPS provides a shared furnished office suite with WiFi, access to electronic health records system (for charting patient notes), and testing materials for the psychologist. UCPS also manages patient scheduling and billing on behalf of the psychologist.
