CareMind Health, a clinical captive entity of Mindoula, is seeking a talented full-time psychotherapist looking to work in a virtual outpatient psychiatry practice serving Maryland, Virginia, the District of Columbia, North Carolina, and other states.

Mindoula was founded to transform the behavioral health system from one that is broken to one that advances mental health and well-being. Many of us have personal experience with mental illness, either directly or through a loved one. We are united by a common purpose: to improve the lives of the people we serve. Recognizing that each of us, and everyone we serve, is a person first and a set of challenges second.

About Us:

• A fast-growing national behavioral health-focused group
• A market leader in inpatient psychiatry unit performance
• Our innovative delivery model provides psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and other allied behavioral health professionals virtually to help hospitals and other institutions deliver psychiatric care
• Excellent benefits and compensation package
• Collaborative team environment

About You: The ideal candidate will have a passion for providing excellent care, and meaningful clinical experience, and thrive in a high-growth environment. You will be a founding team member as we grow our new hybrid outpatient practice, focused on measurement-based care, overall patient wellness, and holistic family support. The right clinician will enjoy serving patients as well as working with a group of exceptional colleagues, leveraging their previous experience to ensure success in their role.

• Ability to produce high-quality documentation that enables the patients to receive the best treatment possible
• Commitment to practicing a measurement-based approach to care
• Ability to work well with diverse populations, ranging from young adults to geriatric populations
