Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

Pathways Within – Wisdom & Wellness Collaborative is expanding its clinician network through an MSO–MSA (Management Services Organization/Management Services Agreement) structure designed for long-term, compliant partnership. This engagement enables licensed Psychiatric NPs and Psychiatrists to retain full ownership of their professional entity while leveraging our infrastructure, systems, and referral pipeline.

You bring clinical excellence. We handle the business operations.

This is an Independent Practice Partnership (In-Person or Hybrid)

Our Core Values

Connection

We believe in the power of connection—building meaningful relationships with clients and fostering a supportive, inclusive environment for our team. By connecting with compassion and understanding, we create a foundation of trust and mutual respect that supports healing and growth.

Growth

Growth is at the heart of everything we do. As an organization, we continually expand our services, create new opportunities, and evolve to meet the needs of the clients and team. We are committed to professional development, encouraging our staff to pursue education, training, and personal development to grow both personally and professionally.

Collaboration

Collaboration drives our mission to care for the whole person. By working together across disciplines, our team delivers a comprehensive, integrative approach to wellness that supports clients' diverse needs. Through teamwork, we build a culture of support and innovation that allows us to achieve more together.

Partnership Structure

• Engagement operates under an MSO–MSA to maintain a clear separation between clinical and administrative functions.
• Each clinician practices through their own Professional Corporation (PC).
• The MSO provides services under the d/b/a “Pathways Within – Wisdom & Wellness Collaborative”.
• Rachel Lessard, LCSW P.C., participates as a member within the MSO to streamline shared benefits, infrastructure, and continuity of care.

Malpractice & Liability

• Each clinician maintains individual professional liability (malpractice) coverage under their PC.
• The MSO does not provide group malpractice coverage and does not deliver clinical care.

This is not an offer of employment; it is a contract for management services with an independently owned professional entity.
