Northwest Permanente, P.C. is currently seeking a Board Certified or Board Eligible Adult Psychiatrist to join our growing medical group. You will be a Cohort Lead for our Recovery Pathways program at one of our medical offices (Rockwood or Tanasbourne Medical office) when in clinic. Recovery Pathways is a team-based, ambulatory, co-occurring substance use and mental health disorder recovery service at Kaiser Permanente NW. This role will work virtually 2 days per week.
You will support a general adult psychiatry practice and work as a cohort lead for co-occurring disorders. This program provides a team-based approach to addiction and offers you dedicated time to this program, 2 days per week. The team includes 2 addiction specialty therapists (LCSW) and a peer (former recovered patient to be a mentor for patients that are currently struggling with addiction & concurrent mental health issues). Addiction-trained fellows are encouraged to apply as are general Adult Psychiatrists.
Our team uses a combination of face-to-face care and the latest virtual modalities to provide evidence-based, psychiatric treatments, including primary care consults, crisis interventions and medication consultation. Our onsite care model supports at least 50% virtual visits as well. It is preferred that applicants have experience with digital technologies (examples include telehealth and/or digital health).

A comfort level with concurrent documentation is also needed.
