About The Position

Thriveworks is seeking a licensed Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who lives in the state where they will practice. This fee-for-service W-2 position serves clients in Newport News, Virginia, through in-person and telemedicine care. Compensation ranges from $130,000 to $187,000 per year, based on 25–35 clinical hours per week. Nurse Practitioners provide care to clients with a range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, and ADHD. The population served is primarily adults and adolescents, with a future focus on expanding care across the lifespan. Clinicians must be willing to treat clients age 14 and older. Thriveworks does not push or incentivize stimulant medication use; prescribing decisions are left to the clinician based on the client’s symptoms and diagnosis. The organization does not currently treat substance use disorders and seeks to refer clients to in-person providers when their symptoms are too severe for telemedicine-only care. Clinicians complete in-house training and a certification exam on Thriveworks’ ADHD treatment standards, guidelines, and approach. New hires are enrolled in the ADHD Clinic and expected to treat ADHD clients, but there are no quotas for the number of clients or prescriptions. The role includes clinical support and consultation, flexible scheduling, and no required on-call work.
