Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Conduct comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and provide ongoing medication management for clients. Partner with therapists to coordinate care and maintain accurate documentation in the EHR.

Founded in 2023, Tides Mental Health is a growing outpatient psychiatric and behavioral health practice serving individuals, couples, and families across the Chicago area. Our mission is to be a safe harbor for healing and growth—transforming mental health care through compassion, collaboration, accessibility, and creativity. We pair psychiatric and therapy services under one roof to deliver truly integrated, client-centered care.
This is an early-stage, founder-led practice. The clinician who joins us now will help shape our clinical culture, care model, and long-term direction.
We’re looking for a licensed, experienced psychiatric PA-C who wants to practice thoughtful psychiatry without the volume pressure of larger systems. You’ll carry a manageable caseload, collaborate closely with our therapy team, and help build the integrated care model that sets Tides apart. Our Medical Director—a psychiatrist licensed in Illinois—serves as your collaborating physician, providing supervision and clinical support.
Our clients are primarily adults experiencing anxiety, depression and mood concerns, and ADHD. Candidates should bring the requisite clinical experience to both effectively care for and collaborate with our Medical Director / therapy team on higher-acuity patients. Tides operates an integrated care model: clients come to us for medication management, psychiatric assessments, and education about their medications, coordinated alongside therapy.
The role is flexible and ideal whether you’re supplementing an existing practice or looking to grow with a mission-driven team.

Hours: Flexible scheduling with both part-time and full-time arrangements considered; final schedule mutually agreed based on your availability and practice needs
