Job description

About Affect

Affect is transforming behavioral health care by combining mobile technology with counseling and medical services to deliver 100% virtual, evidence-based treatment. Our mission is to break down barriers to care—making treatment more accessible, engaging, and effective for our members.

Through our innovative model, we integrate a smartphone app with a dedicated care team to provide real-time, data-driven support, improving outcomes while reducing costs.

About the Role

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) at Affect, you’ll play a key role in leading member care alongside a collaborative team of counselors, therapists, peer support specialists, and case managers.

You’ll provide evidence-based treatment for individuals navigating substance use and mental health disorders in a fully virtual environment.

Affect specializes in substance-specific care. We prescribe Suboxone for Opioid Use Disorder and do not prescribe other controlled substances. While we provide extensive training in our treatment approach, clinical decisions remain at the provider’s discretion in collaboration with the member.

For full-time roles, we are specifically seeking providers who are particularly strong on the mental health side. While experience with substance use disorder treatment and Suboxone prescribing is important, this role requires confidence in assessing and managing more complex mental health conditions.

You must hold an active, unrestricted license in Ohio.

We are currently hiring for both full-time and part-time opportunities in Ohio.This posting is for the full-time position ONLY.

Key Responsibilities

Conduct initial and follow-up telehealth evaluations
Provide care for both substance use and mental health conditions
Prescribe medications as appropriate and respond to member questions
Complete timely documentation in our EHR (Healthie)
Collaborate with your care team and participate in scheduled team meetings

Requirements

Active, unrestricted PMHNP license in Ohio (Medicaid enrollment a plus)
Active license in your state of residence if different from Ohio
Minimum of 2 years of experience (addiction or mental health preferred; strong candidates with less experience considered)
Experience prescribing Suboxone and an active DEA registration
Willingness to obtain additional state licenses (covered by Affect)
Strong empathy for individuals facing behavioral health challenges
Comfort using technology, including EHRs and mobile applications

Additional Information

This is a fully remote position. You’ll need a private, quiet workspace and reliable internet connection to conduct HIPAA-compliant telehealth visits. The role may include occasional internal meetings. Reasonable accommodations are available as needed.

Why Join Affect?

At Affect, we’re reimagining how behavioral health care is delivered. You’ll join a mission-driven, collaborative team focused on meaningful, outcomes-based care.
