This role offers the opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary setting alongside specialists in Pain Management, Physical Rehabilitation, Physical Therapy, Acupuncture, Massage, and Chiropractic.

We're a mission-driven practice with the goal of eliminating barriers to quality care. We serve primarily industrial medicine (Workers' Compensation) patients with delayed recovery chronic pain issues. We provide inspired treatment at the forefront of the biopsychosocial model to help people overcome their chronic pain and return to the things they love most.

Our ideal psychologist will be excited about learning how to build and administer an FRP program. Experience in Workers' Compensation or FRPs is a plus, but not required.

  • Lead group classes about pain management strategies, coping skills, and preventive care.

  • Collaborate with MDs, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals to provide holistic care.
  • Monitor patient progress and adjust treatment plans as necessary.
  • Understand relevant treatment guidelines to get patients authorized for services.
  • Draft compelling medical reports and evaluations.

Qualifications:

  • Ph.D or Psy.D in clinical psychology from an accredited institution (board certification a plus).
  • Valid medical license to practice in California.
  • Experience with chronic pain patients and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy treatment methods.
  • Experience in Workers' Compensation or with Functional Restoration Programs a plus, but not required.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Commitment to compassionate and patient-focused care.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary with unparalleled incentives to participate in a large practice.
  • Training in the methods of building and growing a practice with expertise in the most profitable niche markets of pain.
  • Healthcare and retirement plan options.
  • Continuing medical education (CME) allowance.
  • Supportive work environment with opportunities for career growth.
