If you’re passionate about improving mental health outcomes for children and families, explore current opportunities and join a team working to raise the standard of care nationwide.
Blackbird Health is expanding its team as it continues to grow across Southeastern Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey, and Northern Virginia, with additional expansion planned through 2026. The organization provides specialized mental health care for children, adolescents, and young adults — including comprehensive evaluations, therapy services, and medication management — while partnering closely with pediatricians, schools, and families.
At the heart of Blackbird’s model is a commitment to understanding the root causes behind a young person’s challenges, rather than treating symptoms in isolation. Blackbird clinicians examine how the brain, body, and behavior interact in daily life, allowing care teams to identify connections that might otherwise be missed.
As CEO Tom Peterson explains: “Our mission is not just to expand our services, but to change the standard of care. People often buy products, but we sell solutions. Solutions only work if they’re matched with the right problem.”
This philosophy shapes how Blackbird hires, trains, and supports its clinicians. The organization combines advanced technology, measurement-based care, and specialized training programs to ensure care teams can deliver a deeply personalized approach to treatment at scale.
“We’ve built residency programs for recently graduated psychiatric practitioners to train them on our model,” said Peterson. “Our psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners and psychiatrists take a much more holistic approach to care — and since we’re always growing, we’re always hiring.”
For professionals who want to do meaningful work alongside thoughtful colleagues, Blackbird offers an environment where clinical rigor, curiosity, and compassion are valued equally. Team members collaborate across disciplines, learn from one another, and contribute to a model of care that is designed to improve outcomes for children and families.
Blackbird Health is hiring Child and Adolescent Therapists across its Lancaster and Lansdale locations. Blackbird is actively recruiting for both W2 and 1099 positions and welcome candidates at multiple licensure levels.
