Job description
About the Practice
Our hiring partner is a distinguished outpatient psychiatric practice that has served the Maryland community for more than ten years. Its multidisciplinary team of over 90 clinicians provides child, adolescent, and adult psychiatric medication management, individual and group therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), and weight management services. Despite significant growth, the practice has intentionally maintained a close-knit culture with a strong record of provider longevity and retention. The team believes excellent psychiatric care is built on strong therapeutic relationships, thoughtful clinical decision-making, ongoing learning, and collaboration across disciplines - and values compassion, competence, work-life balance, curiosity, inclusivity, and acceptance of all identities and bodies.
Practice Locations and Hybrid Work
The practice offers hybrid work across five offices in Baltimore, Bethesda, Columbia, Hunt Valley, and Frederick.
Position Overview
The PMHNP will provide outpatient psychiatric evaluations and ongoing treatment to children, adolescents, and/or adults, depending on clinical interest and experience. The ideal candidate is a thoughtful, collaborative clinician who enjoys building strong therapeutic relationships, works well within a multidisciplinary team, and wants to continue expanding their clinical skills.

Provide patient education on mental health conditions, medications, and lifestyle modifications.
Assess suicide risk, safety concerns, and other acute symptoms; distinguish emergent from non-emergent situations and coordinate appropriate levels of care, including referral to higher levels of care when indicated.
Maintain timely, accurate documentation in the electronic medical record and coordinate care with the patient's family and multidisciplinary team.
Work effectively with administrative staff and the multidisciplinary treatment team, including ongoing collaboration with therapy providers.

Benefits & Perks
Generous paid time off and holidays.
Medical, dental, and vision insurance.

Malpractice insurance coverage.
Reimbursement of Maryland licensure, CDS, and DEA registration, and board certification fees.
Dedicated administrative, billing, prior authorizations, credentialing, and clinical management support.
An established referral base - providers are not asked to market or build their own panel.
Schedule & Hybrid Model
Hybrid role - minimum 2 days per week on-site. In-office days are at whichever practice location is closest to the provider, not a location of their choosing.
Remaining time is Telehealth, structured around the office's Monday-Friday, 7:30 a.m.-6:00 p.m. hours. No call.
Schedule is built around each provider's own patient panel, not a fixed shift. Some patients need 7 a.m. starts; others are seen only in the evening - hours may extend earlier or later than standard business hours to accommodate them.
New hires work standard admin hours (8 a.m.-5 p.m.) during their first several weeks, so administrative support is available while they ramp up. Admin support is available 8 a.m.-5 p.m. for all providers.
