Psychiatrist — Geriatric Psychiatry – Telehealth

Happier Living is expanding its geriatric psychiatry services to meet the growing mental health needs of older adults. We are seeking a compassionate, relationship-oriented Psychiatrist with expertise or strong interest in geriatric psychiatry to provide high-quality care to adults typically age 65 and older. This position offers flexible care delivery — via telehealth, in person, or a hybrid of both. Candidates are encouraged to indicate their preferred modality when applying.

Our geriatric clients commonly present with mood and anxiety disorders, adjustment issues related to aging, grief and loss, caregiver stress, cognitive concerns, and medical comorbidities.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide high-quality, evidence-based psychiatric care to older adults via telehealth
• Conduct comprehensive psychiatric evaluations
• Prescribe and manage medications thoughtfully, with attention to polypharmacy and age-related considerations
• Use geriatric-specific assessment tools to inform treatment planning
• Develop and adjust individualized treatment plans over time
• Collaborate with other members of the care team when appropriate
• Support patients through major life transitions such as bereavement, retirement, functional decline, or emerging cognitive impairment
• Contribute to Behavioral Health Integration (BHI) efforts by participating in team-based care when appropriate
• Complete documentation in a timely manner

As a Geriatric Psychiatrist at Happier Living, you will cultivate long-term therapeutic relationships with older adult clients while integrating psychotherapy, medication management, and collaborative care planning based on each individual's needs.

You may collaborate virtually with primary care providers and other clinicians to support whole-person care while preserving independence, dignity, and quality of life.

What Makes This Role Unique

• Fully remote telehealth position
• Longitudinal, relationship-based care
• Balanced integration of psychotherapy and medication management
• Small, manageable caseload of motivated, low-acuity clients
• Dedicated administrative support for scheduling, billing, and operations
• Collaborative national practice group and regular Case Conferences

Requirements

• MD or DO
• Board Certification in Psychiatry through the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN), or within 3 years of residency completion
• Fellowship training in Geriatric Psychiatry preferred but not required
• Unrestricted DEA registration
• Experience working with older adults, including cognitive disorders and complex medical comorbidity
• Participation in Case Conferences
• Proficiency with telehealth platforms, EMR systems, and ePrescribing

Join our team of compassionate professionals dedicated to improving the emotional well-being, resilience, and quality of life of older adults across the country — all through a thoughtfully structured telehealth model.

Apply now to become part of the Happier Living community.

We look forward to exploring the possibility of working together to provide exceptional geriatric psychiatric care.

Best regards,
