Were seeking a thoughtful, collaborative practitioner to join our growing integrative care team.
Join the First National Mental Health Platform Built for People with Chronic Illness
Spoonly is the first national integrative mental health collective for people with chronic illness and we know nutrition is essential to whole-person care. Were hiring credentialed functional nutritionists to provide trauma-aware, systems-informed support to clients navigating complex health journeys.
Our platform brings together therapists, psychiatric providers, health coaches, functional nutritionists, and somatic practitioners who believe healing happens when care is collaborative, personalized, and rooted in empathy. Providers choose their own schedules, see clients via telehealth, and are supported by a team that values autonomy, impact, and integrity.
The Role
Were seeking a functional nutritionist to join our founding team as a 1099 contractor. You'll work with adults experiencing chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, fatigue, inflammation, food-related distress, and trauma.
We are hiring for this role nationwide, and you may reside in any U.S. state. This position provides nutrition education, support, and coaching, not medical nutrition therapy or clinical diagnosis.
This role is ideal for someone who values autonomy and purpose-driven care.
Were seeking a thoughtful, collaborative practitioner to join our growing integrative care team.
This role may begin as very part-time, with income building gradually in the first 1-3 months.
Because were onboarding providers ahead of our public launch, there may be a short delay before client referrals begin. Were committed to building a high-quality system before scaling rapidly.

Values-driven care: We support practitioners who prioritize autonomy, empathy, and trauma-informed care.
Who Thrives on Our Platform?

A new grad psychologist building a remote practice with flexible hours.
A burned-out PMHNP shifting away from high-volume systems.
A functional nutritionist integrating gut-brain support into mental health care.
A bilingual therapist offering culturally responsive care.
A somatic coach or yoga-informed practitioner who blends body-based work with therapy or coaching.
A part-time clinician looking for a small but meaningful caseload.
