About Wild Sunflower Counseling

Wild Sunflower Counseling is a warm, trauma-informed mental health practice dedicated to helping people heal through compassionate therapy, mindfulness, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. We’re growing our online presence to reach more people who need support and to share our upcoming online courses on mental wellness, emotional regulation, and psychedelic integration.

We’re looking for a creative, motivated Social Media Manager who is passionate about mental health (bonus points if you’re genuinely interested in psychedelic-assisted therapy!) to help us build authentic, engaging communities on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and LinkedIn.

What You’ll Do

• Set up and optimize professional social media business accounts from the ground up (or elevate existing ones)
• Create scroll-stopping Reels, short videos, carousels, stories, and static posts that educate, inspire, and normalize mental health conversations
• Develop a consistent content calendar focused on organic growth (we’re not heavy on paid ads)
• Grow followers, increase reach, and drive engagement so more people discover our services and online courses
• Track basic analytics (followers, engagement, reach) and suggest content ideas that actually connect with our audience
• Help promote our new online courses and workshops through authentic storytelling
• Work closely with the practice owner (me!) on branding, voice, and monthly goals

This is a very part-time role—perfect for someone who wants meaningful, flexible work without a full-time commitment. Hours can flex up or down depending on what the practice needs each month.

What We’re Looking For

Required:

• Proven experience starting and growing social media accounts for small businesses or practices
• Strong skills in creating Reels and short-form video content (Instagram & TikTok especially)
• Ability to write warm, authentic captions that feel human and therapeutic
• Basic understanding of organic growth strategies (hashtags, trends, engagement tactics)
• Reliable, self-motivated, and able to work independently
• Comfortable with mental health topics and a genuine interest in wellness

Big Plus If You Have:

• Personal interest or experience in mental health, therapy, mindfulness, or psychedelic-assisted therapy
• Experience promoting online courses or digital products
• Knowledge of Canva, CapCut, or similar tools (Adobe Suite is a bonus but not required)

Compensation & Perks

• $17–$19 per hour (paid bi-weekly via direct deposit)
• Performance bonuses once accounts start generating leads and course enrollments
• Flexible schedule—you set your own hours around your life
• Opportunity to grow with the practice (more hours and responsibility if desired)
• Meaningful work: you’ll be helping real people find healing and support

How to Apply

Please send the following to [your email – insert your preferred email here]:

• A short note (1–2 paragraphs) telling me why you’re excited about mental health / psychedelic-assisted therapy and why you’d be a great fit
• Links to 2–3 examples of Reels or social media content you’ve created (especially anything wellness-related)
• Your hourly rate expectation ($17–$19 range) and availability

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. I respond to everyone—promise!

If this feels like the right role for you, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s grow something beautiful together
