About Affect

Affect is transforming behavioral health care by combining mobile technology with counseling and medical services to deliver 100% virtual, evidence-based treatment. Our mission is to break down barriers to care—making treatment more accessible, engaging, and effective for our members.

Through our innovative model, we integrate a smartphone app with a dedicated care team to provide real-time, data-driven support, improving outcomes while reducing costs.

About the Role

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) at Affect, you’ll play a key role in member care alongside a collaborative team of counselors, therapists, peer support specialists, and case managers.

You’ll provide evidence-based treatment for individuals navigating substance use and mental health disorders in a fully virtual environment.

Affect specializes in substance-specific care. We prescribe Suboxone for Opioid Use Disorder and do not prescribe other controlled substances. While we provide extensive training in our treatment approach, clinical decisions remain at the provider’s discretion in collaboration with the member.

You must hold an active, unrestricted license in the state where you're applying.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct initial and follow up telehealth evaluations
  
  
• Provide care for both substance use and mental health conditions.
  
  
• Prescribe medications as appropriate and respond to member questions.
  
  
• Complete documentation in our EHR (Healthie).
  
  
• Collaborate with your care team and attend occasional scheduled team meetings.
  
  

Requirements:

• Licensed PMHNP (Medicaid enrollment is a plus).
  
  
• At least 2 years of experience, ideally in addiction or mental health treatment. We will consider relevant previous experience for those with less than 2 years experience as a PMHNP.
  
  
• Experience prescribing Suboxone and active DEA registration.
  
  
• Willingness to obtain multi-state licensure (cost covered by Affect).
  
  
• Strong empathy for individuals facing behavioral health challenges.
  
  
• Comfort using technology, including EHRs and mobile apps.
  
  

Additional Information:

You’ll need a quiet, private office with a reliable internet connection for HIPAA-compliant telehealth visits. The role may include periodic meetings with internal teams; reasonable accommodations are available as needed.
