Job Description

Telehealth Mental Health Nurse

Care, Comfort, and Real Connection

Picture starting your morning with a warm mug in hand, sitting in your favorite spot at home, and logging on to see familiar faces who genuinely trust you. That’s the vibe here. This isn’t just working from home – it’s bringing meaningful mental health care into people’s daily lives.

You’re not here to tick boxes or read from a script. You’re here to help someone breathe easier, sleep better, or feel less alone. That’s the kind of workday you’ll have.

Why Your Role Matters

These days, mental health care isn’t optional – it’s essential—life piles on pressure: jobs, family, finances. Sometimes, the lifeline someone needs is a conversation with a nurse who listens without judgment.

When you offer guidance, calm a tense moment, or help someone stick to a plan, you’re showing them that getting help can be simple, human, and hopeful.

What a Day Could Look Like

Your schedule will change from day to day. You might start with a video chat helping a young adult manage anxiety, then support a parent through a tough afternoon, and wrap up by checking in with someone who’s making progress.

Some days are back-to-back calls, others give you breathing room for follow-ups, care planning, and collaborating with fellow professionals.

Your Core Work

  • Connect with Patients: Use secure video calls to listen, assess, and guide.
  • Build Care Plans Together: Partner with therapists, psychiatrists, and other nurses.
  • Keep in Touch: Follow up, track progress, and adjust where needed.
  • Offer Steady Support: Be the calm voice when things feel uncertain.
  • Share Resources: Help patients build habits that support their mental health.

Who Fits This Role

You balance warmth with professionalism. You stay composed when emotions run high. You’re curious, open to new mental health approaches, and know how to make patients feel at ease.

Wins That Stick With You

One teammate told us about a patient who nearly skipped their first session. After a friendly, genuine conversation, they not only stayed but booked the next visit before hanging up. Moments like that remind us why we do this.

Skills That Make a Difference

  • Clear, Kind Communication: Breaking things down simply.
  • Tech Confidence: Using telehealth tools without frustration.
  • Quick Thinking: Spotting what’s changing and responding fast.
  • Empathy: Understanding more than just the words spoken.
  • Organized Workflow: Balancing calls, follow-ups, and notes smoothly.

What You Bring

  • Active RN license (or equivalent) in your state.
  • Background in mental health or similar care.
  • Comfortable with video consultations and digital records.
  • Independent but thrives in a supportive team.
  • Open to trying new tools and methods.

Working Remote – The Real Side

There’s freedom in working from home – no commute, control over your workspace – but also moments where it can feel a bit quiet. That’s why we connect weekly on video. Sometimes it’s about patients, other times it’s just sharing stories or a good laugh.

How We’ve Got You Covered

  • Annual Salary: $106,000
  • Paid time off to recharge.
  • Ongoing learning and training in mental health.
  • Tech support so your setup stays smooth.
  • A team ready to offer advice, backup, or encouragement.

Room to Grow

This is a place to build your career, not just fill a position. Move into leadership, specialize in specific mental health areas, or help design new programs – we love seeing our nurses grow.

The Heart of the Job

It’s more than completing tasks. It’s being that steady voice on a hard day. It’s hearing, “I already feel better,” and knowing you helped make that happen.

Our Team Culture

We celebrate every win, big or small. We check in on each other, share valuable resources, and sometimes even share pet pictures. We’re a blend of experienced nurses and fresh talent, united by making mental health care more personal and more human.

Ready to Begin?

If you want a role where flexibility meets purpose, this is it. Here, compassion wins over rigid rules, and honest conversations matter more than scripts.

We’re ready when you are – let’s make mental health care better, together.
