Clinical Psychologist – Bend, Oregon | Part-Time
Overview
Frontera Search Partners is recruiting a Clinical Psychologist in Bend, Oregon, for a part-time opportunity conducting behavioral health evaluations for Veterans as part of the VA's Compensation & Pension (C&P) disability evaluation program.
