About The Position

Thriveworks is seeking a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in Worcester, Massachusetts. The role is fee-for-service W-2, with a stated annual compensation range of $147,000–$212,000 based on 25–35 clinical hours per week. Clinicians must be licensed and live in the state where they practice. Nurse Practitioners provide psychiatric care to a diverse population, primarily adults and adolescents, with a willingness to treat clients age 14 and older. Care includes in-person and telemedicine services. Thriveworks does not currently treat substance use disorders and refers clients to in-person providers when their symptoms are too severe for telemedicine alone. Prescribing decisions are left to the clinician; stimulant medications are offered according to clients’ symptoms and diagnoses rather than incentivized. New hires complete in-house training on Thriveworks’ ADHD treatment standards, guidelines, and approach, followed by a certification exam. New hires are enrolled in the ADHD Clinic and are expected to treat ADHD clients, with no quotas for client or prescription volume. Thriveworks describes itself as a clinician-founded and clinician-led mental health provider with more than 340 locations and a nationwide hybrid care model. The organization serves more than 175,000 clients annually through over 1.7 million sessions.
