Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) — Two Openings

Date Posted: July 24, 2026

Location: Arizona

Pay: Starting at $100 per hour, depending on experience

Higher compensation is available for in-person clinic days.

Schedule: Remote telehealth plus at least one day per week in our Phoenix office clinic

Hours: Minimum commitment of 20 hours per week; part-time and full-time opportunities available

Employment Type: W-2 or 1099 — your choice

ABOUT OUR PRACTICE

If you have worked in telepsychiatry before, you may know the feeling: high patient volume, short appointments, little clinical support, and the sense that you are simply a name on a roster rather than a clinician whose voice matters.

Our practice was built to be different.

Our practice is co-owned by a practicing PMHNP who continues to see patients every week and leads the clinical side of the organization with one guiding question:

"Would I want to work here, and would I want to be a patient here?"

OUR GOAL

Our goal is to become known as one of the best places in Arizona to receive mental health care — and one of the best places to practice it.

We want to help define what high-quality psychiatric care should look like in Arizona, and we are building a team of clinicians who want to be part of that mission.

THE ROLE

We are hiring two experienced PMHNPs who are willing to see patients in person at our Phoenix clinic at least one day per week.

The remainder of your schedule may be completed remotely through telehealth unless you prefer to work additional days in person.

• Our Phoenix clinic is open seven days a week
• You may select whichever in-person day works best for your schedule
• You are welcome to work more than one clinic day per week
• We offer a higher rate for in-person clinic days
• We are looking for clinicians who genuinely enjoy providing in-person care

Our Phoenix patients value the opportunity to receive care in person, and we are committed to continuing to provide that option.

WHY THIS POSITION STANDS OUT

Clinician Ownership and Leadership

A practicing PMHNP co-owns the organization and leads our clinical strategy. Our workflows and policies are designed by people who understand what it is actually like to provide psychiatric care.

A Genuine Clinical Team

We value communication, collaboration, peer support, and collegiality. You will have access to colleagues who understand the challenges and responsibilities of your work.

Paid Peer Connection and Continuing Education

Providers receive paid time every week for team connection and continuing education.

Your Own Dedicated Virtual Assistant

Every full-time provider receives a dedicated virtual assistant to help reduce administrative burden and keep each workday running smoothly.

An EMR Designed for Clinicians

Our PMHNP co-owner has personally spent hundreds of hours developing and customizing our EMR, templates, and clinical workflows.

The goal is simple: make patient care feel organized and efficient rather than exhausting.

Your Arizona CSPMP Report Is Ready for You

Our virtual assistants pull Arizona CSPMP reports daily so the information is available for review before your workday begins.No scrambling between appointments.

Administrative Support Is Handled for You

Our team manages:

• Scheduling
• Billing
• Insurance verification
• Credentialing
• Patient intake
• Technical support
• General administrative tasks

Appointments That Allow Time for Quality Care

• 60-minute psychiatric evaluations
• 30-minute follow-up appointments
• 60-minute follow-ups whenever clinically appropriate

Yes, we actually allow extended follow-up appointments when a patient needs more time.

Clinical judgment stays with the clinician — not a billing algorithm.

Flexible Scheduling

Your work is remote except for your selected weekly clinic day. You choose the clinic day that works best for you.

HOW WE CREATE A TEAM IN A REMOTE-FIRST PRACTICE

Providers generally participate in approximately two to three hours of paid meetings and educational programming each week, including:

Weekly PMHNP Team Meeting

One hour dedicated to:

• Case consultation
• Clinical discussion
• Peer support
• Team communication
• Collaboration with colleagues who understand your work

Weekly Continuing Education

One to two hours each week with a physician, psychiatrist, specialist, or guest speaker.

Our continuing education program has received excellent feedback from our clinicians. We bring in high-quality speakers and are committed to creating a culture of continuous learning and clinical growth.

The rest of your time belongs to you and your patients.

PATIENT POPULATION

Our primary patient population is adults ages 18 and older.

Treating adolescents or geriatric patients is entirely optional. We want clinicians to work with the populations and conditions they genuinely enjoy treating.

Whenever possible, we will prioritize building your caseload around your clinical interests and preferred patient population.

We believe clinicians provide their best care when they are able to do work they find meaningful and fulfilling.
