  • Proven experience working within hospital settings, outpatient clinics, or behavioral health facilities is preferred.
  • Demonstrated expertise in psychopharmacology, psychotherapy modalities (including psychodynamic therapy), and diagnostic evaluation is essential.
  • Experience working with diverse populations including children, individuals with developmental disabilities, or those requiring PTSD care is highly desirable.
  • Familiarity with medical records systems, medical documentation standards, and medical terminology is necessary.
  • Prior telehealth experience is beneficial but not mandatory; training will be provided if needed.
