Licensed Psychological Associate (LPA)

Winston Salem, NC or Greensboro, NC

We're glad you found us.

Mood Treatment Center has been offering high quality, accessible mental health care for over thirty years. If there's one thing we've learned, it's that great care starts with great clinicians who actually feel supported - and every team member plays a role in the care for our patients. We're an insurance-based practice growing across North Carolina, and we're looking for an LPA to support our psychological testing for our patients.

We offer psychological testing, Spravato, TMS, therapy, and general psychiatry— often all under one roof. It's a lot — and it means our patients receive genuinely comprehensive care, and you get to contribute to our mission of increasing access to quality mental health services.

Who we're looking for

This position is not an entry-level assessment position and requires experience independently conducting comprehensive psychological evaluations and generating integrated diagnostic reports. The ideal candidate is a highly independent clinician who is comfortable exercising clinical judgment, developing local referral relationships, troubleshooting operational challenges, and helping establish best practices for a growing assessment service line. Previous experience independently conducting comprehensive psychological evaluations and generating integrated diagnostic reports is required. This is not an entry-level assessment position.

What it's like to work here

We've worked hard to combine rigor and high-quality care with a fun and friendly work culture. At Mood Treatment Center, we strive to offer the ideal balance of a small group practice feel on the ground with strong business expertise and technology behind the scenes. You contribute to the care of our patients while having an amazing, nurturing work team supporting you!
