About Talk Therapy Center
We are a therapist-centered practice—built by therapists, for therapists. Our team came together after experiencing the frustration of high-volume, low-support corporate models that overwork and underpay clinicians.
We are not interested in “band-aid” therapy, high-turnover EAP models, or unsustainable cash-pay/super-bill setups. Instead, we are an insurance-based private practice committed to meaningful, long-term therapy that promotes true healing and change.
At Talk Therapy Center, we:
- Value each other as professionals
- Support each other’s growth
- Therapists match themselves with the right clients so they can do their best work
- Maintain a strong, vibrant, and healthy workplace culture
We are a group practice based in Riverside, CA offering individual, couples, family, and group therapy both in-person and via telehealth. Most of our clients are insurance-referred, low-acuity individuals seeking treatment for adjustment disorders, depression, and anxiety.

What We’re Looking For
We seek professional therapists who can commit to long-term client care. Our insurance-referred clients often require ongoing, weekly therapy, so this role is not suited for those looking for short-term or transitional work.
Additional Information
- Paneling: Licensed therapists require individual insurance paneling prior to starting with clients. This process takes 30–90 days. There is an associated cost, which is forgiven after 6 months of employment.
- Associates: Individual paneling is not required.
If you’re ready to be part of a therapist-led team that values clinical excellence, mutual support, and genuine healing, we’d love to hear from you.
