Director of Advanced Practice Psychiatry

About the Role

To maximize our impact on the youth mental health crisis, we need to build out our team of psychiatric providers. This is not possible without leadership opportunities for everyone, hence the position of Director of Advanced Practice Psychiatry. This role is for PMHNPs who want to step into management and hire their own team of PMHNPs who directly report to them. This role involves ongoing direct clinical work with our client as well as an administrative role that involves attending/contributing to weekly operational meetings and hiring then managing other PMHNPs.

As a Director/Manager, you will be tasked with building out your own team of PMHNPs by running that recruitment process, then supervising and meeting with them weekly in 1:1 sessions to discuss cases. To allow for adequate time to supervise, clinical time will decrease 1 hour for every direct report (max 5 direct reports). Of note, if a collaborative agreement with a physician is required, a Medical Director will do that and meet with the PMHNP monthly.

We’re a mission-driven team working to expand access to life-saving behavioral healthcare for people who need it most. Across all departments, we collaborate to deliver meaningful outcomes and build a more connected, effective model of care. If you're inspired by our mission and excited to help transform the behavioral health landscape, we encourage you to apply.
