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.
It’s Hard to Beat Our Benefits
We are invested in the growth and well-being of our staff at all levels. When you join our team as a psychiatrist, you’ll gain access to:
- Competitive compensation and benefits packages, including comprehensive health, dental and vision plans. (We haven’t raised our employee health premium for over six years.)
- Tax-incentivized retirement savings plans with generous employer match.
- Flexible schedules.
- Industry leading paid time off (PTO) accruals.
- Well-being time (3 paid days off on top of regular PTO).
- 9 paid holidays per year.
- Access to valuable student loan forgiveness programs.
- Relocation assistance.
- Stipends for continuing medical education (CME) and conference attendance.
- Mentorship programs, leadership training and clear career progression pathways.
- Individualized personal growth in a supportive environment that encourages every employee to bring their whole selves to work.
Still Wondering What We’re All About?
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.
