Psychiatrist – Come Make an Impact

Description

Behavioral Health | Alpert Jewish Family Service | West Palm Beach, FL

Alpert Jewish Family Service is looking for a Psychiatrist who wants more than just another clinical position.

This is an opportunity to join a mission-driven organization where your work has a direct impact on individuals and families throughout our community, and to play an important role in the continued growth of our behavioral health services.

We are also preparing to open our new Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) clinic, and our Psychiatrist will provide clinical oversight for this exciting new service. Previous TMS experience is highly valued, but it is not required. We are prepared to provide training for the right candidate.

If you are looking for a place where you can practice psychiatry, collaborate with an experienced clinical team, help shape new programs, and genuinely make a difference in people's lives, we would love to speak with you.

In this role, you will provide psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, treatment, medication management, and crisis intervention for clients with a broad range of behavioral health needs. You’ll work collaboratively with clinicians and other members of our behavioral health team to develop thoughtful, individualized treatment plans. 

You will also:

• Conduct psychiatric evaluations and develop treatment plans. 
• Provide psychopharmacological treatment and medication management. 
• Monitor client response to medication and adjust treatment when appropriate. 
• Maintain accurate clinical and patient records. 
• Collaborate with therapists, psychologists, clinicians, and other members of the care team. 
• Provide consultation and guidance within a collaborative-care environment. 
• Help provide clinical oversight and leadership for our developing TMS program. 
• Work with individuals and families experiencing complex behavioral health needs and, when necessary, crisis situations.  

We are seeking a psychiatrist who is clinically strong, collaborative, compassionate, and excited about helping an organization continue to expand its behavioral health services.

Candidates should have:

• Graduation from an accredited medical school and completion of an approved psychiatry residency/training program. 
• Current Florida physician licensure. 
• Appropriate psychiatry certification/licensure. 
• Active DEA licensure. 
• Experience providing evidence-based psychiatric care. 
• At least two years of clinically relevant experience treating adults. 
• Experience with psychopharmacology and medication management. 
• Strong clinical documentation and recordkeeping skills. 
• Comfort working as part of a multidisciplinary clinical team.  
• Familiarity with telehealth and the ability to work with diverse populations, including individuals with developmental disabilities.  

TMS experience is a plus, not a requirement.

With our new TMS clinic preparing to open, this position offers a unique opportunity to help develop and oversee an innovative treatment service within an established behavioral health program. For an excellent psychiatrist who has not previously worked with TMS, Alpert JFS is willing to provide the necessary training.

At Alpert JFS, psychiatry is about more than appointments and prescriptions. It is part of a broader commitment to helping people navigate behavioral health challenges, crises, family needs, and other difficult moments in their lives.

You’ll have the opportunity to work alongside dedicated behavioral health professionals in a collaborative environment while helping us continue to expand access to high-quality mental health services in our community.

If you became a psychiatrist because you wanted your work to matter, we want to hear from you.
