Commitment: Willingness to support a minimum of 20 students per week for the 2025-2026 school year, with potential for renewal. You control your caseload; if you agree to the 20-student minimum, you are not obligated to take more students. Caseloads are not guaranteed; referrals may take several weeks to build.

Partial Caseload Clarification: This opening is for those who desire flexibility and prefer a partial caseload.

Caseload Definition:

Questions & Answers:

• What if I see students requiring more time? - A student receiving 30 minutes twice a week counts as two students.
• Why discuss time in "Students" rather than "Hours"? - To keep focus on helping students, aligning with our mission.
• Why a minimum caseload of 20 students? - To promote therapist satisfaction and stability, leading to better school integration and referrals.

What You Get:
