PMHNP Career at Thriveworks - $93K Telehealth Role in Columbus
Career & Market Insight
This role offers a compelling entry point into large-scale telehealth psychiatry with one of the fastest-growing mental health platforms in the US. Thriveworks' 340+ location footprint and 175,000+ annual clients signal a mature, well-funded operation — not a scrappy startup — which translates to greater stability and infrastructure support.
Compensation analysis: The stated range of $65,000–$93,000 for 15–20 clinical hours per week is competitive for a part-time W2 PMHNP role. Full-time equivalent annualized, this maps closely to market rates of $120,000–$160,000 for PMHNPs in telehealth. The fee-for-service model means earnings are tied directly to sessions, which rewards efficient, high-quality care.
Career development green flags:
- Paid credentialing and malpractice coverage remove significant financial barriers for new or transitioning PMHNPs
- In-house ADHD training and certification adds a credential-like specialization to your portfolio
- Case consultation groups provide ongoing clinical supervision and peer learning
- No-show protection reduces income volatility common in fee-for-service models
Potential considerations:
- The fee-for-service structure means income can fluctuate with patient census
- Telehealth-only practice limits exposure to complex, treatment-resistant cases that require in-person intervention
- Clinicians seeking leadership or administrative growth paths may find limited upward mobility initially
Overall, this is a strong role for experienced PMHNPs seeking work-life balance, clinical autonomy, and a stable telehealth platform — particularly those building or growing a private-practice-style schedule.
Thriveworks is currently seeking Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners in Georgia.
*** Clinicians need to be licensed and living in the state in which they will be practicing. ***
Compensation: This is a Fee for Service (W2) position. The range for this position is $65,000–$93,000 per year based on 15–20 clinical hours per week.
To maintain safety and best practices for our clinicians and patients via telemedicine, Thriveworks does not push or incentivize the use of stimulant medications; instead, we offer them as an option based on the client's specific symptoms and diagnosis, with prescribing decisions left to the discretion of the clinician. We do not currently treat substance use disorders, and make every effort to refer out to an in-person provider when symptoms arise that are too severe to be treated via telemedicine only.
Thriveworks Nurse Practitioners are expected to provide care to a diverse population of clients with mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, and more. They work with a broad range of age groups, primarily adults and adolescents, with a future focus on expanding care across the lifespan.
Qualifications:
- Licensed Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner — Board Certification required
- Master's in Nursing with active prescriptive authority required in the state
- Understanding of AdvancedMD (AMD) EMR is a plus
- Three years of experience is a plus; 1 year of psychiatry practice is required
- Must be licensed and living in Georgia
- All clinicians are required to complete an in-house training on ADHD treatment standards, guidelines, and approach, followed by a certification exam. While all new hires are enrolled in the ADHD Clinic and expected to treat ADHD clients, there are no quotas for the number of clients or prescriptions.
What We Need:
- Make psychiatric assessments and evaluations of clients in an ongoing telemedicine capacity
- Willingness to treat clients 14 years old and up
- Prescribe medication to reduce mental health symptoms, as needed
- Create and collaborate with clients on care plans
- Complete and/or administer appropriate paperwork and assessment tools for clients
- Adhere to Thriveworks' Clinical Practice Guidelines
- Consult with Regional Clinic Directors and staff on clients, programs, and services at the various sites
