About The Position

Thriveworks is seeking a part-time Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The role is fee-for-service W-2, with compensation of $65,000–$94,000 per year based on 15–20 clinical hours per week. Clinicians must be licensed and live in the state where they practice. Care is provided through ongoing telemedicine to a diverse client population, primarily adults and adolescents, with a future focus on expanding care across the lifespan. Clients may present with conditions such as depression, anxiety, and ADHD. Thriveworks does not push or incentivize stimulant medications; prescribing decisions are left to the clinician based on each client’s symptoms and diagnosis. The organization does not currently treat substance use disorders and makes efforts to refer clients to in-person providers when their symptoms are too severe for telemedicine alone. Clinicians are enrolled in the ADHD Clinic and expected to accept and treat ADHD clients. They must complete in-house training on ADHD treatment standards, guidelines, and approach, followed by a brief exam. There are no quotas for the number of clients or prescriptions. The position requires availability for 15–20 hours per week and willingness to treat clients age 14 and older. Thriveworks describes itself as a clinician-founded and clinician-led mental health provider with more than 340 locations and a nationwide hybrid care model. It serves over 175,000 clients annually through more than 1.7 million sessions. The organization emphasizes clinical support, community, and opportunities to build a fulfilling, long-term career. Applicants must be legally authorized to work in the United States at the time of hire; employment visa sponsorship is not available.
