Remote Internship Forensic Psychology Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About Dare Therapy

Dare Therapy is an expanding private practice dedicated to providing high-quality, integrated, and holistic mental health services. We emphasize client-centered care and evidence-based practices, specializing in trauma, neurodivergence, forensic psychology, and relational health.

As we scale our infrastructure across Massachusetts, we are seeking a seasoned, board-certified Lead PMHNP to step into a dual role combining advanced clinical practice with operational leadership. This position is designed for an experienced provider who values clinical autonomy, possesses a strong collaborative spirit, and is ready to shape the clinical training and supervision frameworks of a growing team.

Why Join Dare Therapy?

• Flexible & Remote: Enjoy a 100% remote telehealth workflow with scheduling that respects your professional autonomy and work-life balance.
• W2 Employment Stability: We provide the comprehensive clinical, administrative, and billing infrastructure you need so you can focus entirely on clinical care and leadership.
• True Integrated Care: You will work hand-in-hand with our multidisciplinary team of therapists (LICSWs, LMHCs, LMFTs) to bridge the gap between psychotherapy and advanced medication management.
• The Clinical Supervisor Premium: This role compensates you for your experience. You are not just a prescriber; you are a vital pillar of leadership, helping to oversee clinical quality and supervise emerging advanced practice nurses.

The Structural Advantages of Our W2 Model

Unlike traditional 1099 "fee-for-service" roles that pass operational and tax burdens onto the clinician, Dare Therapy protects our team through a robust W2 infrastructure:

• Paid Administrative & Documentation Blocks: Your clinical expertise doesn't stop when the session ends. We build paid time into your schedule for documentation, charting, and inter-team consultations.
• Immediate Tax Savings: As a W2 employer, we cover 7.65% of your payroll taxes (Social Security & Medicare). That is an immediate savings compared to 1099 roles, where you are responsible for the full 15.3% self-employment tax.
• The "Double Shield" of Liability: We prioritize your professional safety. You are backed by two layers of protection: our comprehensive agency professional liability coverage alongside your personal policy, ensuring maximum security in a supervisory role.
• Immediate Protection & Safety Net: From Day 1 on the clock, you are covered by Workers' Compensation and Unemployment Insurance, providing financial peace of mind.

About the Role & Career Path

We are looking for an experienced PMHNP (4+ years of post-master's experience) capable of managing complex, high-acuity psychiatric evaluations and medication management via telehealth, while serving as the primary Clinical Supervisor for junior clinicians and graduate-level nurse practitioner interns.

The Two-Phase Trajectory

• Phase 1 – The Build-Up (Part-Time W2 No-Benefits): Launch with a highly competitive hourly rate paid for all clinical contact hours, clinical supervision sessions, and mandatory documentation blocks.
• Phase 2 – The Leadership Transition (Full-Time W2 Salaried): Once you maintain a consistent caseload of 40 hours weekly (inclusive of direct clinical hours and supervisory responsibilities) or 25-billable hours over a 2-month period, you will transition to a guaranteed yearly salary. This protects you completely against patient no-shows and activates our full corporate benefits package.

Key Responsibilities

• Clinical Excellence: Perform comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and advanced pharmacological management via telehealth using a trauma-informed, holistic approach.
• Clinical Supervision: Provide mandatory clinical supervision, chart audits, and case consultations for Junior PMHNPs, ensuring adherence to Massachusetts practice standards and agency protocols.
• Prescriptive Oversight: Act as the signatory provider for Collaborative Practice Agreements for advanced practice nurses navigating their initial supervised prescriptive practice periods.
• Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Lead regular care-coordination meetings with Dare Therapy’s psychotherapists to optimize holistic patient outcomes.
• Operational Leadership: Assist in drafting clinical standard operating procedures (SOPs), onboarding guidelines for new medical staff, and establishing rigorous peer-review frameworks.
• Compliance: Ensure accurate, comprehensive, and timely clinical documentation in our Electronic Health Record (EHR) system within 24 hours of each encounter.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Education: Master’s or Doctoral degree in Nursing with a specialty in Psychiatry (PMHNP).
• Board Certification: Active ANCC board certification as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.
• Licensure: Current, unrestricted Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) and Registered Nurse (RN) licensure in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
• Prescriptive Authority: Active Federal DEA registration and Massachusetts Controlled Substance Registration (MCSR).
• Experience Baseline: Minimum of 4+ years of post-master's clinical experience as a practicing PMHNP. Prior experience in clinical supervision, teaching, or management within an outpatient behavioral health infrastructure is highly preferred.
• Residency: Must currently reside in the state of Massachusetts.
• Clinical Scope: Proven experience treating a diverse spectrum of conditions (trauma, neurodivergence, mood disorders, anxiety) utilizing both psychopharmacology and supportive therapeutic modalities.

Benefits (Activated Upon Full-Time Salaried Status)

• Competitive Annualized Base Salary
• Comprehensive Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• Accrued Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Professional Development & Continuing Education Support
• Fully Remote, Flexible Scheduling
