Why Skilled Nursing? Why Now?

Many psychologists never imagine themselves working in skilled nursing facilities. Not because they wouldn’t be good at it, but because no one ever explained what it actually looks like. And yet, the signs are clear it’s a setting where they are much needed:

With adults 65+ projected to reach 20% of the U.S. population by 2030, demand for psychologists in skilled nursing is growing. Older nursing home residents have high rates of mental health and cognitive needs, creating a critical need for specialized psychological care in the setting.

At Executive Mental Health (EMH), we focus specifically on  quality mental healthcare in the skilled nursing facility setting. For 30 years, EMH has offered high-impact, , human-centered work to residents who are often overlooked by the mental health system. We serve individuals navigating:

• Serious mental illness
• Cognitive decline and neuropsychiatric conditions
• Medical complexity and disability
• Trauma, grief, identity loss, and profound transitions
• End of life issues

The Role: Psychology Where It Counts

As a Clinical Psychologist at EMH, you will not be isolated in an office all day. You become part of a milieu within the skilled nursing facilities in which you would work.

This is psychology that:

• Prevents hospitalizations
• Reduces behavioral crises
• Supports staff under pressure
• Restores dignity to residents who feel forgotten


What You’ll Be Doing

Your work will be meaningful, varied, and grounded in clinical excellence. You will:

• Assess, diagnose, and treat residents in skilled nursing facilities
• Provide psychological services to geriatric, disabled, and medically complex populations
• Manage an active caseload with support from your clinical manager and administrative team
• Collaborate closely with facility staff, offering consultation, guidance, and in-services
• Complete documentation aligned with medical necessity and Medicare standards

It’s clinical practice without worrying about fee splitting, overhead costs, or stressing about billing and dealing with insurance companies.

Most importantly, you won’t be working alone: EMH has built systems around our clinicians so you can focus on care.



Requirements

Who This Role Is For

This role is for psychologists who:

• Hold a PhD or PsyD in Clinical Psychology
• Are licensed in California
• Are Medicare-eligible (we assist with credentialing and paneling)
• Value evidence-based practice and clinical flexibility
• Are comfortable working with complexity and ambiguity
• Want autonomy without isolation, and support without micromanagement

You don’t need prior SNF or geriatric experience. What you need is curiosity, compassion, and the ability to see the person behind the chart.


Benefits

What You’ll Gain

• Flexible schedules with true work–life balance
• Competitive W-2 salary + bonus structure for full-time clinicians
• Medical, dental, retirement with employer match, childcare reimbursement
• Vacation and sick pay
• Coverage of license fees and CE costs, plus access to in-house CEs
• A fully supported home office setup (laptop, printer, IT support)
• Ongoing clinical consultation with experienced, collaborative colleagues
• Real opportunities for professional growth in a stable, mission-driven organization
