Who We Are:

We all walk around with an invisible backpack. It carries our emotional experiences, traumas, and unresolved feelings. Similar to a physical backpack, it can become heavy and burdensome when filled with too many items - We created Backpack Healthcare to help lighten the load.

At Backpack Healthcare, we’re re-imagining mental health care for children, teens, and young adults. As a clinician-led, minority-owned company, our mission is simple: when clinicians thrive, kids thrive.

At Backpack Healthcare, we’re not just offering a job—we’re offering purpose, flexibility, and the chance to change lives every day. If you’re ready to be part of a collaborative, empowering, and innovative mental health movement, join our team and make a real impact by breaking barriers and healing young minds.

Responsibilities include:

Delivering on-site, school-based therapy services to students during school hours

Offering telehealth sessions (optional) to supplement caseload or allow for early onboarding

Conducting mental health assessments and developing individualized treatment plans

Collaborating with school staff, families, and the Backpack clinical team

Maintaining timely and accurate documentation in the EHR

Participating in supervision (if pre-licensed) and team case consults

A Master’s degree in Counseling, Social Work, or a related field

Active Virginia license: LCSW/LMSW/LPC/LPC-A
