WellPower Is Not Your Typical Psychiatry Practice

For the past 35 years, WellPower has been Denver’s community mental health center, serving children, teens, adults and families with a wide range of needs at all levels of acuity. We combine traditional mental health care with comprehensive supportive services that address the social determinants of health: housing, nutrition, education, primary health, job training, relationships, art, music and much more. The people we serve work with teams of case managers, therapists and medical professionals to build individualized treatment plans that address every aspect of their recovery.

In short: your medical expertise goes further here.

We’re looking for psychiatrists who are:

  • Proudly board-certified or board-eligible with a passion for continuous learning.
  • Up for the worthy challenge and unrivalled reward of serving people with complex, layered needs – those who have been given up on by everyone else.
  • Empathetic communicators who are eager to listen and collaborate.
  • Wide ranging in their experiences and perspectives, both personal and professional, reflecting the breadth of communities we serve.
  • Committed to ethical standards, patient safety and cultural competence.
  • Excited to contribute to a person-centered culture of partnership and respect.

Why Denver?

There’s a reason people keep moving to Denver. Actually, there are lots of reasons. If you’re already here, none of these will surprise you. For the uninitiated:

The Weather. 300 days of sunshine. Summers that aren’t too humid, winters that have just the right amount of snow, springs and falls that rival the most postcard-worthy spots across the country.

The Culture. Electric food and music scenes, vibrant arts districts, high-profile professional sports teams. From Michelin stars to the National Western Stock Show, it’s hard to be bored here.

The Mountains. You can start downtown and be in the foothills in 30 minutes. If you’re not a skier, there’s hiking in the summer. If you’re not a camper, there are boutique hotels and luxury resorts. If you’d rather just be inside, the Rocky Mountains provide some unbeatable scenery out the window.

The People. Denver has been formed by the convergence of peoples and cultures over many centuries. This makes for a rich cultural heritage and multitudinous traditions alongside the constant renewal sparked by new arrivals. WellPower has the unique privilege of serving people from a wide range of communities and backgrounds across the metro area.

The Location. Our airport is a growing hub in the middle of the country, making it supremely simple to hop on a flight and be anywhere in the contiguous U.S. in a few hours. If you’re an international traveler, there are currently 33 direct flights to far-off destinations with 3 more coming by the end of 2025.
