Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner - California (Part-time)

$62 - $96 per hour

Two Chairs

Job Description

Job Description

Two Chairs is building a new kind of mental health system based on the idea that the status quo isn't good enough. Industry-best clinician experiences, better client outcomes, groundbreaking innovation, and access to the highest quality care are how we'll raise the bar for the entire industry. With that, we're excited and honored to have been recognized as a 2025 Great Place to Work and 2025 Fortune's Best Workplaces in Healthcare .

One of our company values is "Embrace Differences" and diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are the principles guiding how we build our business and teams. We encourage interested candidates from all backgrounds to apply even if they don't think they meet some expectations of the role.

Why Two Chairs is consistently a Great Place to Work

  • Competitive Pay: Earn a total hourly rate of $62–$96 (guaranteed base + incentive potential), paid semi-monthly. Base rate determined by clinical experience, place of residence, and overall qualifications.
  • Truly Flexible Work : Work remotely with a schedule that fits your life: no nights, no weekends, no on-call responsibilities. We also provide paid administrative time so documentation doesn't follow you home.
  • Mission-Driven, Clinician-Led : We're dedicated to creating a world where everyone has access to exceptional mental healthcare. Clinical decisions are made by clinicians for clinicians, ensuring you're supported by a team that is focused on centering the client and enabling clinicians to deliver exceptional care.
  • Clinical Excellence Comes First : You'll join a deeply collaborative environment, with access to physician partners, therapists, and crisis support services. Our integrated platform provides tools that enable measurement-based care, clinical decision support, and seamless information sharing.

What You'll Do

  • Conduct 60-minute psychiatry assessments and 30-minute follow-up sessions remotely.
  • Prescribe and manage psychiatric medications, including controlled substances, in accordance with state and federal regulations.
  • Integrate brief psychotherapy when clinically appropriate to support your clients in reaching their goals efficiently and sustainably.
  • Collaborate with physicians and clinical leadership for support, escalation, and continued learning.
  • Partner with therapists and other providers through integrated care plans, shared treatment insights, and team consultation spaces.
  • Use data-informed tools and measurement-based care to tailor treatment plans and improve outcomes.
  • Contribute to a growing, diverse community of clinicians committed to redefining mental health care.

What success looks like

In your first 90 days

You will become comfortable with Two Chairs systems, processes, and teams, supported by an onboarding team and clinical leadership. You will gradually build a caseload and deliver exceptional mental health care. You will collaborate with team members and help refine workflows and care protocols.

By the end of your first year

You will have established a robust caseload of clients and delivered exceptional care, as evidenced by clinical outcomes. You will have made contributions to our program and to a world where everyone has access to exceptional mental health care.

What We Offer

  • Compensation you can count on :
    • Competitive Pay: Hourly rate of $62-$96 based on clinical experience, place of residence, and overall qualifications
    • Guaranteed Onboarding Support: Earn 100% of your hourly rate during your initial 90-day ramp period while you build your caseload
    • Sustainable Base + Incentive: Following the ramp period, you'll receive a guaranteed base (80% of your hourly rate) plus an incentive structure that rewards clinical productivity and the integration of psychotherapy
    • Comprehensive Coverage: we pay for administrative time, clinical consultations, trainings, and no-shows.
    • Long-term Growth: Eligibility for annual performance-based merit increases

  • Comprehensive Benefits :
    • Sick leave
    • Access to 401(k) retirement plan options
    • Credentialing and cross-licensing support
    • License renewal fee reimbursement
    • Technology package including laptop, EHR system, HIPAA compliant video platform, and more
    • Malpractice Insurance provided
    • Supervising Psychiatrist fees covered

  • Flexible Schedule:
    • Part-time, W2 position (up to 16 hours per week) with opportunity for increased hours over time.
    • Expect to spend ~75% of time on direct client care and ~25% focused on admin/ supervisory work. The balance may vary based on team needs.
    • Build a schedule that works for you within our operating hours of M-F, 8am-8pm.
    • Start date: September 2026

  • Clinical Coverage :
    • Backup coverage, so your clients are supported when you're away
