Department

Therapy

Welcome to Brightline! We are seeking a full-time Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner to join our care team. In this role, you will work alongside an outstanding multidisciplinary team of therapists, psychologists, coaches, and prescribers to deliver thoughtful, high-quality psychiatric care to children, adolescents, and their families.

This role is hybrid: you will provide in-person care at least three days per week at our Albany, New York Clinic location. This is not a high-volume, assembly-line practice. We take time with our patients, use a structured three-part diagnostic series, and conduct 30-minute medication management visits that allow for real clinical relationship-building.

You will report directly to the Medical Director, with support from the Chief Medical Officer. You will receive weekly individual supervision with the Medical Director as well as team-based group supervision — because we believe that clinician development and clinical quality go hand in hand.

Responsibilities

Clinical Care

  • Conduct comprehensive three-part diagnostic evaluations — including separate sessions with caregivers, the child or adolescent, and a feedback session — to ensure thorough, family-centered assessment.
  • Provide ongoing psychiatric medication management via 30-minute follow-up visits, using psychotherapy add-on codes to support quality therapeutic engagement beyond the medication check.
  • Complete thorough biopsychosocial intake evaluations, incorporating psychiatric history, medical history, psychosocial functioning, family systems, cultural context, and relevant environmental factors.
  • Conduct risk assessments related to suicidality, self-harm, harm to others, abuse, neglect, and safety concerns, and initiate appropriate clinical interventions when indicated.
  • Apply trauma-informed, equity-centered, and culturally responsive practices across all clinical interactions.
  • Prescribe and manage psychiatric medications — including stimulants and other controlled substances — in accordance with evidence-based guidelines and Brightline's clinical protocols.

Multidisciplinary Collaboration

  • Collaborate closely with therapists, testing psychologists, coaches, and other non-clinical team members to deliver coordinated, holistic care for each patient and family.
  • Participate in case consultations, treatment planning discussions, and team meetings to ensure alignment across disciplines.
  • Communicate clearly and effectively across professional backgrounds — translating clinical reasoning into language that is accessible and actionable for non-prescribing colleagues.
  • Contribute to a team culture of psychological safety, mutual respect, and shared accountability for patient outcomes.

Documentation & Operations

  • Maintain accurate, timely documentation of session notes, care plans, medication decisions, and progress updates within Brightline's electronic health record system.
  • Utilize Brightline's AI-assisted documentation tools — including an AI scribe — to support efficient, high-quality note completion without sacrificing clinical nuance.
  • Adhere to Brightline's documentation standards and turnaround expectations, supporting seamless care coordination across the team.
  • Partner effectively with non-clinical care operations staff on scheduling, patient communication, and care logistics.

Growth & Innovation

  • Engage with Brightline's evolving technology stack with curiosity and adaptability, including AI tools, telehealth platforms, and clinical decision support features.
  • Participate in quality improvement initiatives, clinical trainings, and professional development opportunities offered by Brightline.
  • Contribute clinical perspective to team discussions about care model improvement, protocol development, and patient experience.

Requirements

Clinical Expertise

  • Board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC); board-eligible candidates with a clear certification timeline will be considered for the right candidate.
  • Minimum 2–3 years of post-training clinical experience specifically in pediatric mental health; pediatric-specific experience is required, not preferred.
  • Active DEA license with demonstrated comfort prescribing stimulants and other controlled substances in a pediatric population.
  • Active New York state license, or willingness to obtain one with administrative and financial support provided.
  • Expertise in conducting comprehensive psychiatric evaluations for children and adolescents, including complex diagnostic presentations.
  • Working knowledge of evidence-based treatment approaches in pediatric psychiatry, including familiarity with ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, ASD, and trauma.

Clinical Style & Collaboration

  • Warm, engaging clinical style with a genuine commitment to family-centered care and therapeutic relationship-building.
  • Strong multidisciplinary collaboration skills — comfortable working alongside therapists, psychologists, coaches, and care operations staff as true peers.
  • Culturally responsive and equity-centered approach to clinical care.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to share clinical reasoning across professional disciplines clearly and constructively.

Adaptability & Technology

  • Comfort and enthusiasm for technology-forward care delivery, including telehealth platforms, EHR systems, and AI-assisted tools.
  • Ability to adapt quickly to a fast-paced, evolving startup environment where processes and tools are continuously improving.
  • Strong documentation habits with the ability to meet turnaround expectations without sacrificing quality.

Nice to Have

  • Experience working in a hybrid in-person and virtual clinical model.
  • Familiarity with or prior use of AI documentation tools or clinical decision support platforms.
  • Licensure in additional New York metro states or openness to cross-licensure with administrative support.

We Offer Several Benefits, Perks, and Stipends:

  • Health Coverage: Medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus life and long term disability coverage and a flexible spending account (FSA)
  • Time Off: Paid time off, paid sick time, 12 paid holidays, and paid parental leave

  • Stipends and Reimbursements: Work from home stipend, health and wellness stipend, professional development reimbursement, commuter benefits, cell phone and internet reimbursement, and licensure maintenance support
  • Work Environment: A collaborative, clinician-led culture that fosters connection, support, and community

The target compensation for this position ranges from $116,000 - $140,000 per year. Individual pay may vary from the target range and is determined by a number of factors including licensure, experience, location, internal pay equity, and other relevant business considerations.
