She Recruits is partnering with a federal contractor to identify a Psychologist (PhD/PsyD) or Psychiatrist to conduct Compensation & Pension (C&P) behavioral health exams for our nation’s Veterans in Salisbury, Maryland.

This is a structured, evaluation-only role supporting the Veterans Benefits Administration. The position offers a hybrid schedule — three days onsite and two days remote — providing flexibility while maintaining meaningful in-person Veteran interaction.

If you are seeking impactful clinical work without ongoing therapy panels, medication management, or call responsibilities, this opportunity offers a focused assessment model within a predictable weekday structure.

About the Role
You will conduct comprehensive, one-time behavioral health evaluations to assist the VA in determining disability claims.

This role does not involve:

Assigning disability ratings
Prescribing medications
Developing treatment plans
Providing ongoing psychotherapy
Your responsibility is to provide objective assessments and compliant documentation. Final determinations are made by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

Clinical Scope
Behavioral health exams are scheduled for 90+ minutes to allow thorough evaluation of conditions such as:

PTSD
Depression
Anxiety disorders
Eating disorders
You will:

Review medical and mental health records prior to each exam (electronically bookmarked for efficiency)
Conduct structured evaluations in person and via telehealth
Complete electronic Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs)
Submit documentation within 48 hours
All documentation is completed electronically through a guided Provider Portal. Dedicated administrative time is built into the schedule for dictation and documentation to preserve interview quality and clinical accuracy.

Work Structure
Monday–Friday, 40 hours per week
Hybrid schedule: 3 days onsite, 2 days remote
Dedicated Veteran exam facility
Standardized templates and compliance review support
Administrative time included
Qualifications
PhD or PsyD from an APA-accredited doctoral or post-doctoral program
OR
MD/DO Board Certified or Board Eligible in Psychiatry
Active, unrestricted Maryland license
Ability to work independently
Strong clinical assessment and documentation skills
Basic computer proficiency
VA or C&P experience preferred but not required. Module training is provided.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Hybrid flexibility
Evaluation-only behavioral health work
No therapy panels or medication management
Predictable weekday schedule
Competitive hourly compensation
Meaningful service to Veterans
At She Recruits, we connect providers with mission-driven opportunities that balance clinical purpose with professional flexibility.
