Description

About the Role

We are looking for Child Behavioral Psychologists to join our team of passionate and dedicated professionals who are working to improve the lives of kids with OCD and Anxiety. Psychologists at Braver provide supervision of and direct clinical services for child and adolescent patients with anxiety disorders at the outpatient level of care. Core responsibilities include:
  • Evaluate new patients and develop comprehensive treatment plans.
  • Supervise a team of bachelor's-level Mobile Exposure Coaches who deliver a significant portion of the direct patient care in the field. Supervise Coaches in daily group sessions and in individual Coach supervision and mentorship.
  • Facilitate and observe group patient therapy sessions.
  • Lead and engage in family therapy sessions.
  • Review and evaluate Braver Challenges and other content in the Braver mobile app.
  • Collaborate with the Braver leadership team and colleagues to continually enhance and evolve our methodologies and technologies as we grow and strive to achieve our mission.


Requirements

Successful Child Behavioral Psychologists at Braver will have the following:
  • PhD or PsyD degree from an accredited institution.
  • Licensed as a psychologist in Rhode Island and/or Massachusetts (or licensed in another state and willing to become licensed in RI and/or MA).
  • Experience treating children and adolescents with anxiety disorders using exposure therapy (preferred, not required).
  • Commitment to evidence-based psychotherapy.
  • Comfort with learning and using new technologies.
  • Desire to work in a collaborative, non-hierarchical team environment.
  • Passion for our mission and an ability to be nimble and thrive in a fast-paced start-up atmosphere.

Location and Schedule

This is a hybrid role. Delivery of virtual treatment and other team collaboration can be conducted remotely from the psychologist's home. Some work will be required to be conducted onsite in our East Providence, RI office and/or a future office in the MetroWest Boston area. Given the outpatient nature of this work, and the fact that children and adolescents will be in school during the day, it is necessary to periodically attend and supervise group therapy that takes place in the evening (i.e. between 6 and 8:30 pm) with the day's start time adjusted accordingly on those days.

What We Offer

Braver offers competitive compensation as well as a generous benefits package including a 401k plan with company matching and immediate vesting, medical insurance with employer contributions, as well as a robust Paid Time Off (PTO) package. Our hybrid model blends the ability to perform work in the comfort of your home while also coming together regularly for in-person engagement and relationship building with colleagues and patients.

Salary Description

$100,000 - $125,000 / year
