About the job
Overview
As a nonprofit organization, Seneca Family of Agencies is dedicated to providing services to children and their families. We are seeking a child psychiatrist for our Seneca Washington programs, which include outpatient clinic, school-based and wraparound programs serving youth and families. Seneca operates a wide variety of programs, including school-based programs, community-based programs, and crisis services and is looking for qualified child psychiatrists eager to work within multi-disciplinary teams in collaborative, innovative settings which are client and family-focused. Physicians also enjoy being part of a growing and supportive department of physicians, nurse practitioners and nurses within the greater agency.
As a Joint Commission accredited behavioral health organization, all consulting psychiatrists must undergo a credentialing process, and so early applications are encouraged even for future openings. Applications will be accepted until positions are filled. We are continuing to expand!
