Role Description
Third Space Therapy combines the independence of private practice with the support of a group setting, focused on expanding Medicaid-covered behavioral healthcare. We're looking for passionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners to provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing care to the Medicaid population. We handle the administrative side β billing, insurance, credentialing β so you can focus on care.
-
Complete flexibility: You set your own hours and availability, decide which referrals to take, and build the caseload that works for you β alongside your own practice or other work, if you have it.
-
Administrative support: We handle insurance, billing, and credentialing, and clients book into the availability you set.
-
Robust referral network: Build a diverse caseload through our connections with insurers, universities, and community providers.
-
Collaborative practice support: Where Colorado requires a practice agreement with a patient care team physician, we'll help connect you with an independently licensed collaborating physician. Clinical decisions remain yours.
-
Optional peer consultation: Connect with other independent clinicians in the network when you'd like a second perspective.
-
Remote practice model: Enjoy the independence of private practice with the backing of a group β from wherever you work.
-
Paid per session: You're paid for the clinical work you deliver, at a competitive rate.
-
Meaningful work: Make a real difference for Medicaid members and help close gaps in access to care.
