Crescent City Psychiatric is searching for a licensed psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) who wants to join our growing practice!

We are looking for a PMHNP who can conduct psychiatric evaluations and provide medication management in the outpatient setting to adults in Louisiana with depression, anxiety, and ADHD.

We are searching for a provider who is eager to learn and looking to grow with our practice and clinical team! This is primarily a remote position. The provider will see patients in person at our Metairie location at One Galleria Blvd #1900 Metairie, Louisiana 70001 office for the initial consult. The provider will then conduct Telemedicine for medication management visits using our practice management software.

New patients will be screened via intake by our staff and intake will be reviewed with the provider before scheduling an appointment.
