Job Description

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner | Washington State

150K-175K+ Base | 4-Day Work Week | No Call | Forensic Psychiatry Focus

Are you a seasoned clinician drawn to complex, high-acuity psychiatric care? Do you believe individuals involved in the justice system deserve consistent, high-quality mental health treatment? This role is designed for clinicians seeking meaningful clinical depth, protected time, and mission-driven work beyond traditional outpatient psychiatry.

The Mission: Closing the Gap

You will help build a clinical bridge for individuals transitioning from city and county jails back into the community.

You will provide:

• Medication management for high-acuity patients
• Forensic diversion support
• Integrated physical + psychiatric triage
• Continuity of care during critical transitions

This work directly supports some of the most vulnerable individuals in the system, ensuring stability where gaps often exist.

Practice Highlights: Quality Over Quantity Protected 4-Day Work Week

• Permanent 4/10 schedule
• No call, weekends, or after-hours responsibilities

Sustainable Scheduling

• 90-minute new evaluations
• 30-minute follow-ups
• 12-15 patients/day
• Emphasis on clinical depth over volume

Forensic & Community Work

• Partner with forensic outreach teams for "warm hand-offs"
• Work in jail and community settings
• Build early rapport to improve outcomes

Protected Time

• Medical Director manages crisis calls
• Time off is fully protected

The Gateway to the Olympics

Port Angeles sits between Olympic National Park and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, offering unmatched natural beauty and community living.

• Hiking, kayaking, and Hurricane Ridge nearby
• 400 annual wellness reimbursement (gear or park pass)
• Lower cost of living than Seattle
• Ferry access to Victoria, BC
• Life Flight membership provided

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: 150,000-175,000+
• 5% automatic 403(b) employer contribution after 6 months
• 150/month student loan assistance
• Loan repayment eligibility (state/federal programs)
• 90% employer-paid medical premiums
• ~1,500 HSA contribution annually
• 20 PTO days + 7 hours/month sick + 14 holidays
• 1,000 CME + 3 CME days
• Licensing fees fully covered

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a rare opportunity to practice forensic-informed psychiatry in a structured, supportive environment where clinical quality is prioritized over volume. You'll have autonomy, protected time, strong compensation, and a lifestyle rooted in one of the most scenic regions in the Pacific Northwest.
