    The current Virginia average for PMHNP compensation is about $150,000 annually, so this range is intentionally positioned slightly above average to attract strong candidates. Indeed

    Strong clinical judgment and documentation skills

    Excellent communication and interdisciplinary collaboration skills

    We Would Especially Like to Meet You If You Have

    Experience treating co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders

    Addiction psychiatry or medication-assisted treatment experience

    IOP and/or PHP experience

    Adult and adolescent psychiatric experience

    Virginia DBHDS program experience

    Telepsychiatry experience

    CARF-accredited program experience

    Compensation

    $155,000-$175,000 annually

    Compensation will be based on experience, credentials, prescribing background, behavioral health and substance use experience, and overall qualifications.
