California, MO Full Time
POSTED ON 2/21/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/18/2025

Talkiatry is seeking an addition to our psychiatry leadership team as we grow our footprint across the US into California and neighboring markets.

Increasing access to high quality psychiatric care is why Talkiatry exists. We knew that to accomplish our mission we needed to begin by building the ideal practice for psychiatrists. Founded in April 2020, Talkiatry has been built from the ground up by psychiatrists. We have rapidly grown to a team of over 400 clinicians mostly comprised of board-certified Psychiatrists hailing from the top training programs across the country.

As Chief Psychiatrist, you will provide clinical leadership and support hiring, clinician engagement, mentorship, and supervise care delivery of a team of Psychiatrists. This dynamic role combines administrative and leadership duties with clinical care. The Chief Psychiatrist carries a reduced panel of patients to provide administrative time for leadership – a maximum 10% of your time may be dedicated to patient care.

The Chief Psychiatrist is responsible for preserving the practice flexibility our psychiatrists value while supporting organizational norms, practice standards, and efficiency.

  • Actively mentor your direct reports, including advising in matters pertaining to delivering supportive therapy during patient appointments, physician utilization, schedule optimization, understanding incentive compensation earnings, and all clinical policies.
  • Conduct effective performance management when needed.
  • Empower clinical focus to drive better patient outcomes and higher clinician career satisfaction based on our unique clinical informatics that provide insight into practice patterns you can use to improve care.
  • Proactively study quality data and sponsor quality initiatives to ensure Talkiatry is delivering the highest standard of care.
  • Continuously adapt your leadership responsibilities in an evolving, fast-paced, and growing medical practice.
