About This Role
This psychiatrist position places you in New York City's mental health care system, where you'll provide clinical psychiatric services to patients managing various mental health conditions. Your days will involve patient evaluations, medication management, therapy sessions, and collaboration with interdisciplinary care teams. This is a direct-hire role offering stability and the chance to build lasting patient relationships rather than rotating assignments. The position suits physicians who are drawn to psychiatry's complexity, prefer working in an urban healthcare environment, and want to focus on evidence-based treatment planning. You'll need an active medical license and board certification in psychiatry. This role is ideal for clinicians seeking meaningful work in mental health without the demands of constant travel or shift-based scheduling.

Frequently asked questions
What license do I need to apply?
An active state license in your discipline (PT, OT, SLP, LCSW, LPC, BCBA, etc.) in good standing. Therapy licensure is state-specific — the PT, OT, and ASLP-IC compacts let you practice in member states without a separate license.
Is this a school-year or year-round position?
School-based therapy roles typically follow a 9- or 10-month school-year calendar with summers off. Outpatient, hospital, home-health, and telehealth positions are year-round with PTO. Both options are widely available — check the job description for specifics.
What experience is expected?
Most therapy roles welcome new grads through mid-career clinicians. Specialty positions (acute care, NICU, pediatric feeding, hand therapy) typically prefer 2+ years plus relevant certifications.
