LifeStance Health Reviews
Terrible place to work
09/28/2026 - Oklahoma City, OK
Pros
You can set your own schedule
Cons
NO clinical support, horrible management, extremely high turnover, low morale, patient care suffers from the lack of resources given. You will not be able to provide the quality patient care you are accustomed to in this model and LifeStance doesn’t care.
Decent pay, but high turnover and payment risks
09/25/2026 - Dallas, TX
Pros
Decent money if all your Pts show up
Cons
Turnover in clinical staff (front desk, coordinators). If a Pt chooses not to pay you, you don't get paid.
Corporate growth > employee security
09/25/2026 - Denver, CO
Pros
At the beginning, good clinical support and positive environment. Gave opportunities to grow as a supervisor.
Cons
Reduced supervisors and pay. Pay was significantly less than promised. Got too big too quickly and patient care has suffered.
Highly consider an alternate place of employment
09/23/2026 - Moore, OK
Pros
The local staff - nurses, MAs, and front staff are great.
Cons
Experienced providers make the same as a new grade. Providers have not had a raise and received a pay cut most recently. You are only paid face to face time with patients. Anytime outside of the visit, is not considered working hours. You have no nursing support and are expected to room patients, get vitals, and message patients directly. If your schedule is not full (and this responsibility is on you), you do not get paid. There is no paid time off. Policies are constantly being implemented without any input from clinical staff. It is the perfect business model, and the worst model for patient care and provider satisfaction.
DO NOT WORK HERE
09/22/2026 - Providence, RI
Pros
NonePoor upper management Ridiculous clock in policy, you get a write up for being a minute late
Cons
*1 minute late clocking in for work or lunch and it counts against you*Practically no time off which equals burnout*major increase in unattainable/unrealistic metrics and major increase in workload
Would NOT recommend as place to work
09/22/2026 - Springfield, MA
Pros
No pros to discuss at this time
Cons
All of it, can no longer recommend
Survivable but Not Ideal
09/04/2026 - null
Pros
Flexibility, nice office, kind coworkers
Cons
Clunky systems, little support, extremely corporate and kafka-esque
Supportive management but lacking in benefits and vacation
08/29/2026 - Hinsdale, IL
Pros
Great coworkers, supportive office management
Cons
Poor benefits, no paid holidays and only 1 week vacation time
Independent practice feel without billing headaches, but limited insurance
08/18/2026 - Portland, ME
Pros
Essentially like running your own private practice without the headaches of billing and insurance.
Cons
For an enormous company, their insurance is sub-par and could be much more comprehensive. They also do not compensate for things like training and documentation time.
Flexibility and diverse clinical issues, but no paid time off
08/17/2026 - Los Angeles, CA
Pros
flexibility, wide range of clinical issues, work from home, similar to private practice without billing/insurance headache
Cons
lack of paid time off, very poor benefits, constant changes in leadership and policies
Good autonomy but poor pay and transparency in Pay schedules
08/17/2026 - null
Pros
Autonomy and support are good
Cons
Pay is horrendous, no transparency in billing.Benefits are limited. No paid vacations or holiday pay.
Great benefits and camaraderie, but team disconnects exist but won't effect workflow.
08/17/2026 - South Kingstown, RI
Pros
Benefits, camaraderie, amazing boss, financial incentives for doing a great job. Helping the community and interacting with lovely patients and providers.
Cons
Slight disconnect within bigger picture teams and more clarification for policy/support. Patients take things out on you as you are generally the first point of contact.
Supportive culture, but billing issues
08/04/2026 - Danvers, MA
Pros
great work culture, helpful/welcoming people that you are in direct contact with
Cons
constantly changing their protocols/systems, terrible billing department
Company culture has deteriorated with poor pay and benefits
08/03/2026 - Miami, FL
Pros
Really none. Company has been going down hill the past three years with very apparent increase in greed. They do not care about their staff.
Cons
Awful health insurance change two years ago. Shares taken back in exchange for “tiered bonuses” that will run you into the ground if you achieve them. Pay is awful - straight robbery from clinicians. They threaten to fire you if you try to work on the side.
Micromanagement and lack of trust create stressful environment
08/02/2026 - San Francisco, CA
Pros
Difficult to find any pros so far.
Cons
Like working in a micromanaged adult day care. Punch in 1 minute late or 1 minute early, and you'll be reprimanded. Massive volume of work. Highly controlled and micromanaged work environment. Hired for your experience in revenue cycle and you spend most of your time verifying benefits and bouncing around a convoluted work flow wasting time trying to find the right SOP, guideline, or pleading for assistance in things that are elementary solutions that require you to follow ridiculous protocols. Your every minute is monopolized. You realize quickly that you are looked at as being automatically untrustworthy, dumb, lazy, and incompetent no matter how many years of experience and high work ethic you have. Your strengths are underutilized, and you are nothing more than a number. PTO accrual is dismal compared to other organizations. Benefits are expensive compared to the compensation. I was hired for my experience in denials and resolution of claims. I spend 80% of my time verifying insurance. When you do what is right usiing the knowledge you used anywhere else worked in the past they knock you down and tell you it's wrong. You never hear about ANYTHING you do right so you work in a state of uncertainty and paranoia. You work in an environment where they make you question everything you ever did in the past. There is zero flexibility or autonomy in this job. When you express frustration for the constraints, you are patronized and given a "We Value You" speech to shut you up, while telling you they have an open door policy. Your day is a convoluted mess that is controlled in every way. You are so busy you forget about breaks and lunch constantly. Step the wrong way and you'll hear about it. They like to say they have certain processes in place to ensure you are doing things the right way, but much of it is nothing more than micromanagement at its finest. Management doesn't speak to you or have any interest in you. You are just a name on a list, and they don't have time for you. However, you'll hear them say how much appreciate staff. There is NO flexibility in your work schedule or how you do anything. From the moment you start, they start making you aware you have no autonomy in the job you do. Anything you ask, suggest, or give explanation for is met with a counter. EVERYTHING YOU DO IS WRONG, BECAUSE YOU ARE DUMB AND EXPECTED TO FALL INTO PLACE. When you think you do something right you'll find out they have a counter to it. This is an every day occurrence. Whenever someone calls you or responds to a question, you sit and wonder, "What did I do now?"I started this job with full confidence, vigor, and enthusiasm. I'm left with uncertainty, insecurity, and waiting for the next hammer to drop. Stress and second guessing yourself is what they leave you with at the end of each day.On top of everything else they hammer you on expectations of production and quality as you scramble to do the correct and right things in your work.They use the term "Bonus" as their key motivator for everything. I could care less about a bonus if the job was more employee oriented and reasonable. Rather be happy with a job and employer that believes in me than a bonus with strings attached. You bring professionalism, work ethic, and talents others don't have and treated like they can care less. They consider working remotely as the BIG BENEFIT to working here. That's not everything.
