The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, affiliated with NYC Health + Hospitals / Queens, serving the vibrant and diverse communities of Eastern Queens, is seeking a full-time board-certified or board-eligible Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist to provide services across both our School-Based Mental Health Program and our Child & Adolescent Outpatient Psychiatry Clinic at Queens Hospital Center. As part of our collaborative model, there will also be some cross-coverage work in Pediatric Emergency Department, supporting urgent psychiatric consultations.

This is a unique and rewarding opportunity to work directly with children and adolescents in school settings (including PS 154, PS 160, and the Jamaica High School campus), offering accessible mental health care to underserved youth in a familiar, community-based environment. The psychiatrist will also provide outpatient psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and treatment services at the Queens Hospital-based clinic, ensuring continuity of care across settings.

You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team including therapists, case workers, and school personnel, collaborating to address psychiatric, behavioral, and social-emotional challenges among students and clinic patients.

Position Highlights :

• Provide psychiatric care to children and adolescents ages 5–18 in both school-based and hospital outpatient settings
• Collaborate with Department of Education staff and mental health clinicians in schools
• Participate in case conferences, treatment planning, and coordination of care with families, schools, and community providers
• Conduct psychiatric evaluations, prescribe and manage psychotropic medications, and monitor treatment response
• Participate in clinical supervision, quality improvement initiatives, and medical student / resident education as appropriate

We offer a faculty appointment with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai based on qualifications. This is an excellent opportunity to serve high-need populations in a hybrid model that integrates community outreach with traditional outpatient care.
