Your questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about joining Expressable — before your conversation with our team.

We believe that when we invest in our people, progress happens faster and we do our best work.

🌐
Everyone should have access
Nearly 50% of people with a communication disorder don't have access. We're changing that with national coverage and insurance access — including Medicaid.
👨‍👩‍👧
Families should be part of therapy
Research shows caregiver empowerment and home practice improve clinical outcomes. Our platform makes it easy for families to reinforce progress between sessions.
🏠
Clinicians deserve a better experience
You shouldn't have to make career tradeoffs. Every clinician deserves an employment option that fits your needs — not the other way around.
Technology should save time
Too much time is spent on admin work that technology can improve. Our clinician-built tools exist to free you up for the parts of this work you love.

The full-time exempt compensation model at Expressable has 3 parts:

Part 1
Base Salary
Determined by years of experience, cost of living location, and the ability to treat and evaluate bilingually.
Part 2
Recurring Scheduling Earnings (RSE)
Recurring wages tied to the amount of high-demand availability in your schedule. The more high-demand hours you hold, the higher your earnings — and the more patients are served.
Part 3
Care Delivery / Productivity Bonus
Once you hit at or above 75% productivity of scheduled direct care hours, every additional completed direct hour earns a care delivery bonus of an extra $40 an hour.
Clients self-schedule on our website or are referred by physicians and partners. Matching criteria include your state licenses, preferred availability, clinical areas, and insurance enrollments. Initial evaluations can be 60 minutes or split into two 30-minute sessions, and ongoing sessions (30 min) are scheduled directly on your calendar. Session frequency is typically 2×/week but varies by client need.
Your caseload is based on your scheduling option selection (30–40 hours), client visit frequency (per clinical recommendation), and attendance. With a current productivity target of 75%, a therapist with 40 hours of availability typically completes at least 30 direct hours per week.
Caseload ramp times vary based on credentialing status, state licenses, clinical areas, and availability. Times available in a therapist's calendar after 3:30 PM onward typically fill the fastest due to client demand preferences — afterschool, afternoon, and evenings M–F, and weekends. To support patient access, evaluations, sessions, or reassigned sessions or evaluations can be scheduled the same day, or up to 3 weeks in advance.

These categories support patient access by connecting patients with the right clinician and supporting continuity of care. Patients and families don't always know their underlying issue — these areas help patients get in the door more easily. That's also why Expressable has deeply invested in our clinical education and support teams to ensure our therapists are equipped to provide the highest quality care.

Expressable has strict attendance policies in place to ensure client attendance and high quality clinical outcomes. In the exempt model, you are compensated whether or not a client attends their appointment. Therapists are expected to follow up to reschedule missed appointments to maintain continuity of care.

Yes! We have an entire dedicated credentialing and licensing team that supports obtaining additional licensure and submitting health plan enrollments on your behalf.
Every state is different, and since therapists come in with varying licenses and hiring needs change, credentialing timelines can vary. In general, it is usually between 60–90 days from the day of an accepted offer if no additional licenses are needed.
For salaried full-time therapists, yes — Expressable covers the cost of both credentialing and required additional state licenses.
Your caseload is only opened once you have met a certain threshold of credentialing and health plan enrollments. We set a target start date based on health plan timeline data and keep you updated throughout the process — whether you're able to start sooner or later than expected.

Our Treatment Specialists lead the Excellence Exchange. This program moderates specialty discussion channels and hosts Excellence Exchange Live sessions — creating space for clinicians to ask questions, share ideas, discuss best practices, and continue building confidence in high-quality care.
Expressable uses Slack to communicate! Slack is the virtual "office" of Expressable.

Our hourly model is perfect for therapists looking for a part-time, consistent caseload made up of sessions and evaluations.

It is a non-exempt model that compensates equally for both direct clinical contact as well as associated indirect work (i.e., documentation, session/evaluation planning) based on expected reasonable prep/documentation time by CPT code. The supplemental rate applies to any clinical time beyond the allotted prep/documentation, all non-clinical work, and the time spent training & onboarding.

This ensures fair pay for all work while encouraging efficient clinical documentation and prep.

Expressable requires a minimum of 7 hours of availability per week. These hours must fall after 3:30 PM (in your time zone) Monday through Friday OR mornings & afternoons on Saturday and Sunday.

To support continuity of client care, we generally ask that employees maintain a consistent schedule. After 6 months of employment, you may request a schedule change, provided the new schedule meets our scheduling requirements and has minimal impact on client care.

Clients self-schedule on our website or are referred by physicians and partners. Matching criteria include your state licenses, preferred availability, clinical areas, and insurance enrollments. Initial evaluations can be 60 minutes or split into two 30-minute sessions, and ongoing sessions (30 min) are scheduled directly on your calendar.

To support patient access, evaluations, sessions, or reassigned sessions or evaluations can be scheduled the same day, or up to 3 weeks in advance.
Productivity in the hourly role measures productive time versus total working time and is not a predictor of weekly direct hours, since caseloads and weekly tasks vary. Average productivity typically ranges 75–85%, fluctuating with more evaluations (more documentation, lower productivity) or more sessions (less documentation, higher productivity).

Depending on cancellation notice, you may be reassigned to another session or evaluation.

🤒Sick Time (accrued)
🤝Employee Assistance Program
In order to ensure hourly non-exempt employees have equitable access to time off, you accrue unpaid time off that scales with the number of committed hours that you wish to work with Expressable.
Sick time accrues at 1 hour per 30 hours worked.
Health insurance eligibility is based on a 12-week look-back period. To qualify, you must average at least 30 hours/week over the prior 12 weeks, with a schedule projected to maintain that level.

Our PRN model is perfect for therapists looking for a flexible schedule made up of rescheduled sessions, reassigned clients, or evaluations. There is no recurring caseload in this model and no guaranteed hours. Eligible PRN employees can be asked to cover extended leaves of absence if interested in a larger commitment temporarily.

It is a non-exempt model that compensates equally for both direct clinical contact as well as associated indirect work (i.e., documentation, session/evaluation planning) based on expected reasonable prep/documentation time by CPT code. The supplemental rate applies to any clinical time beyond the allotted prep/documentation, all non-clinical work, and the time spent training & onboarding.

This ensures fair pay for all work while encouraging efficient clinical documentation and prep.

PRNs primarily fill reassignments, reschedules, and evaluations rather than holding a recurring caseload — unless covering a pre-planned leave of absence. Work is matched as availability opens using state of residence, clinical areas, and insurance enrollments. Initial evaluations can be 60 minutes or split into two 30-minute sessions; ongoing sessions are 30 minutes.
The maximum annual cap for PRN therapists is 1,000 hours per year.
Caseload ramp times vary based on credentialing status, state licenses, clinical areas, and availability. Times available in a therapist's calendar after 3:30 PM onward typically fill the fastest due to client demand preferences — afterschool, afternoon, and evenings M–F, and weekends.
