Why This Role Exists
Alaska is home to many rural and underserved communities where access to behavioral health services can be limited. Frontier Psychiatry exists to help close that gap by bringing high-quality psychiatric and therapeutic care directly to patients through secure telehealth.
As a Clinical Therapist, you will provide evidence-based therapy to patients while working as part of a multidisciplinary team that includes psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and a clinical pharmacist. You will have the opportunity to build meaningful therapeutic relationships, support patients in achieving their goals, and help expand access to care without sacrificing clinical quality.
We are hiring an Alaska-based therapist on purpose. Telehealth allows us to reach patients throughout the state, including communities where traditional access to behavioral health services may be limited. Living in Alaska gives you an understanding of the communities and realities your patients experience.
This is direct clinical work with a clear purpose behind it.
Schedule & Commitment
This is a full-time role with a minimum of 27 patient-facing hours per week. You set your own schedule. The rest of your week goes to documentation, supervision, and team consultation.
