Psychiatrist, TMS (Part-Time)

Job Description

Psychiatrist | TMS

\n

Lafayette, Louisiana | Part-Time

\n

\n

For the patients who are still waiting to feel better.

\n

Every psychiatrist knows the patient who has done everything asked of them and is still struggling.

\n

\n

They took the medication. Gave it time. Tried something different when it didn't work. Came back. Tried again.

\n

\n

And eventually, they're sitting across from you asking:

\n

\n

What else can we try?

\n

NeuroJust, a growing Louisiana-based mental health provider, is opening a new location in Lafayette and is looking for a psychiatrist to join the team.

\n

\n

You'll work with patients being considered for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), using your clinical judgment to understand where they've been, determine whether treatment may be appropriate and oversee their care if they move forward.

\n

\n

You won't be there to promise an outcome. You'll be there to listen, evaluate the options and help make a thoughtful clinical decision about what comes next.

\n

\n

A focused way to use your expertise

\n

This is not a traditional medication-management role.

\n

\n

Your time will be centered on the parts of TMS care that require a psychiatrist's training and judgment, while trained clinical staff support the day-to-day treatment process.

\n

Initially, the role will require approximately two to three on-site hours per day in Lafayette, making it a focused opportunity that may fit alongside an existing practice or other professional commitments.

\n

\n

What you'll own

\n

\n
• Conduct psychiatric evaluations and determine patient candidacy for TMS
\n
• Review psychiatric history, previous treatment and relevant medical information
\n
• Develop individualized treatment plans
\n
• Perform TMS mapping and establish treatment parameters
\n
• Provide physician oversight throughout treatment
\n
• Monitor patient response and make clinical adjustments when appropriate
\n
• Maintain clinical documentation
\n
• Collaborate with the clinical and operations teams supporting patient care
\n
• Help patients understand the treatment process, potential benefits and limitations
\n

\n

\n

Who we're looking for

\n

We're looking for a psychiatrist who is clinically confident without losing sight of the person behind the diagnosis.

\n

\n

The right physician can explain an option without overselling it, recognize when treatment is appropriate and when it isn't, and give patients realistic expectations while treating their questions and concerns with care.

\n

\n

Required:

\n

\n
• MD or DO
\n
• Active, unrestricted Louisiana medical license
\n
• Board certified or board eligible in Psychiatry
\n
• Strong psychiatric evaluation and clinical decision-making skills
\n
• Consistent on-site availability in Lafayette
\n
• Clear, compassionate communication
\n
• Ability to work independently while collaborating with clinical and operational staff
\n

\n

\n

Experience with treatment-resistant depression, TMS, neuromodulation or other interventional approaches to psychiatry would translate well to this work.

\n

\n

Why this role matters

\n

For some patients, TMS may become an important part of their treatment. For others, it may not be the right fit.

\n

\n

That's exactly why the psychiatrist matters. Your role is to understand the patient, weigh the clinical picture and make a responsible decision about what comes next.

\n

\n

For someone who has already been through a lot, being taken seriously by a physician willing to look carefully at the options can make a meaningful difference in itself.
