Clinical Therapist (LCSW/LCPC) Serving Alaska

Frontier Psychiatry

11d•Remote

About The Position

Frontier Psychiatry was founded by Montana psychiatrists who recognized that children and families in rural communities often face the longest wait times—and the fewest local resources—when seeking mental health care. To meet that need, we built a secure telepsychiatry practice that allows children, adolescents, and families to access high-quality behavioral health care from home, without referrals, and with most insurance plans accepted. Appointments are typically 60 minutes, with some 30-minute visits available based on clinical need. We are seeking a Child & Family Therapist to deliver compassionate, developmentally grounded, evidence-based care to children, adolescents, and their caregivers across rural states, helping expand access to meaningful support in underserved communities.
