Technical Tools

Backpack Healthcare provides mental health care for children, teens, and young adults — all online, covered by most insurance. We're clinician-led and minority-owned, and our PMHNPs don't work in isolation. You'll be embedded in an integrated care team alongside therapists, psychiatrists, and care coordinators — all working toward the same kid.

Whether you're supplementing an existing role, balancing family commitments, or transitioning into telehealth — this role is built around flexibility without sacrificing the clinical depth that makes the work meaningful.

You'll carry a part-time caseload providing comprehensive psychiatric care to children, teens, and young adults via telehealth. Afternoon, evening, and weekend availability is required — that's when families can actually show up.

Day-to-day you'll:

Conduct comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and formulate evidence-based diagnoses
Develop individualized treatment plans in partnership with patients and their families
Prescribe and manage psychotropic medications, monitor effectiveness, and adjust as needed
Provide brief supportive interventions and psychoeducation alongside medication management
Collaborate with therapists, psychiatrists, and care coordinators in regular case reviews
Maintain accurate, timely documentation in our EHR
Educate families about diagnoses, treatment options, and what to expect

We've served 12,000+ kids and families since 2020. 78% of families report their child is doing better after three months. We built Backpack because the old model wasn't working — for kids or for the clinicians trying to help them.

When clinicians thrive, kids thrive. That's not a tagline. It's how we build.

Backpack Healthcare is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We celebrate diversity in age, background, identity, and experience — and we mean it.
