If the answer is yes, the Behavioral Health Provider position at WindRose Health Network could be the job you are looking for.

We are currently seeking a Behavioral Health Provider that will work effectively within the WindRose Health Network culture, which is described as family-friendly, supportive, transparent, and treats employees as we would want employees to treat our patients. WindRose Health Network provides an opportunity for our employees to gain experience in a high energy, caring, supportive, technology-enhanced work environment, while making a difference in the lives of others. The Behavioral Health Provider (BHP) is a key licensed behavioral health clinician embedded in WindRose Health Network primary care clinics.
