You'll provide comprehensive psychiatric care to children, teens, and young adults through telehealth, with a focus on evidence-based, family-centered treatment.

💊 Prescribing and managing psychotropic medications while monitoring effectiveness, safety, and clinical progress
💬 Providing brief supportive interventions and psychoeducation alongside medication management

✔️ Comfort working independently in a telehealth environment
✔️ Strong clinical judgment, communication skills, and genuine empathy
⭐ New graduates are welcome to apply!
🎒 Why Backpack Healthcare?
Since 2020, we've served 12,000+ kids and families, and 78% of families report that their child is doing better after three months.
We built Backpack because the traditional mental healthcare model wasn't working—for kids, families, or the clinicians trying to help them.
We're creating a different kind of clinical environment: one where providers have flexibility, support, meaningful collaboration, and room to grow.
When clinicians thrive, kids thrive. That's not a tagline. It's how we build.
