Psychiatric Physician

About PsychBright Health PsychBright Health is a physician-led outpatient psychiatry practice headquartered in Beverly Hills, delivering 100% virtual psychiatric care across California. Our model is holistic and evidence-based; we combine medication management with lifestyle, mindfulness, and coordinated therapy referrals so patients get personalized, longitudinal care.

We treat the full range of mental health conditions, with particular depth in mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, sleep disorders, eating disorders, schizophrenia and psychotic disorders, and substance use disorders, including Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and home opioid detox.

The Opportunity

We are hiring 1099 Psychiatric Physicians who want to practice psychiatry the way it’s meant to be practiced; thoughtfully, longitudinally, and without administrative drag. This is a true outpatient telepsychiatry role with sustained patient volume, full operational support, and a clinical environment shaped by physician leadership.

You will see California patients exclusively via secure telehealth, build longitudinal relationships with your panel, and have direct input into the clinical standards that govern our practice. There is also opportunity for collaborating physician work with our PMHNP team for physicians interested in expanding into clinical leadership.

• Provide Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid, alcohol, and tobacco use disorders, and supervise medically appropriate home opioid detox protocols
• Serve as a clinical resource to the PMHNP team for complex cases, with the option of formal collaborating physician work for interested candidates
• Coordinate care with therapists, primary care providers, and other specialists as needed
• Document encounters accurately and on time in our EHR

Schedule and Volume
