What is a Fractional Clinical Director?
A Fractional Clinical Director is a senior clinician who provides expert oversight, leadership, and supervision to your psychotherapy practice on a part-time contractual basis with set fee and commitment of time that is can be matched to the needs and size of your team and your budget.
This flexible model gives practice owners access to high-level leadership support without the financial commitment of hiring and retaining a full-time position on your team.
Fractional Clinical Directors help ensure clinical quality, ethical compliance, therapist development, and client care standards—bringing structure and accountability to growing teams. They do this backed by the experience, training and passion for creating great therapists and committed teams.
For practices that are scaling, balancing risk, focused on sustainability, or even in the forming stage, a fractional model will create a solid foundation while it offers the right mix of consistent, quality expertise and efficiency at the right time and budget for you.
