An established practice. An opportunity to help shape what comes next.

Mettā Vita Health is an established, growing, multistate psychiatric and integrative mental health practice with 7+ years of caring for patients and families. With locations in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Hawaii—and expansion into Florida and New York—we’re looking for clinicians who want to grow with us.

Our patients include children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating the intersection of physical health, mental health, development, stress, and everyday life. Care here is relational and personalized. We value clinical depth, curiosity, collaboration, and treatment plans that patients can realistically follow.

You won’t be starting with an empty panel.

You’ll take over care within an established functional medicine panel currently filling approximately 16–24 patient-care hours per month in total across adult and pediatric services, shared between the two roles.

These are existing patient relationships—not a start-from-zero opportunity. Each clinician’s schedule will reflect their patient population, availability, and practice needs, with room to build hours and responsibilities as the practice grows.

Mental health is central to what we do.

We bring psychiatry, therapy, and functional medicine together because physical health, emotional well-being, relationships, and lived experiences belong in the same conversation.

Our functional medicine clinicians collaborate with psychiatric providers and therapists to develop thoughtful, individualized care plans. We value sound clinical judgment, appropriate testing, clear priorities, and manageable steps—not overwhelming patients with multiple simultaneous interventions.

Adult-focused Opening

Provide care addressing hormone health and BHRT, metabolic and weight-management concerns, gastrointestinal health, nutrition, and sleep. Experience with clinically appropriate GLP-1 treatment and peptide therapies is required, including patient selection, education, safety considerations, monitoring, and follow-up. Care must remain within applicable prescribing requirements and MVH protocols.

Pediatric/adolescent-focused Opening

Help children and families address gut health, nutrition, nutrient deficiencies, sleep, metabolic concerns, and physiologic factors that may overlap with mood, attention, behavior, development, and functioning. Bring experience with age-appropriate assessment, caregiver education, supplement selection, and practical treatment plans.

Peptide experience is not a core pediatric requirement; relevant experience is valued for potential coverage of appropriate adult patients.

These are two distinct openings. Applicants do not need to independently cover every age group. Planned cross-training and reciprocal coverage remain within each clinician’s certification, licensure, training, and demonstrated competence.

Bring your clinical depth.

We’re Looking for Clinicians With

Board certification as a Nurse Practitioner and at least two years of direct clinical experience in functional or integrative medicine, including experience with the population you’ll serve. Family Nurse Practitioner or comparable lifespan preparation is preferred.

Completed formal functional/integrative medicine certification through IFM, A4M, or a recognized comparable program, or completion of a comprehensive postgraduate integrative medicine fellowship. A DNP, PhD, or equivalent is preferred; candidates without a doctoral degree may be considered based on substantial relevant experience. The two-year experience requirement applies to all candidates.

Strong conventional and specialty laboratory interpretation skills. Familiarity with DUTCH or comparable hormone testing, GI-MAP or comparable gastrointestinal testing, nutrigenomic/SNP testing, and pharmacogenomics is valued as relevant to the patient population. We expect thoughtful test selection, an understanding of limitations, and the ability to determine whether findings should meaningfully change care.

Strong supplement knowledge, including appropriate selection, dosing, medication interactions, contraindications, and monitoring. Familiarity with Fullscript is preferred.

Active NP licensure in one or more of NC, SC, NY, HI, or FL. Both NC and SC licenses are strongly preferred, with openness to obtaining additional licenses. Appropriate prescribing credentials and active DEA registrations in at least two states are required; MVH will assist with additional registrations needed for the role. Required credentials must be in place before assigned patient care begins.

Reliability, clear communication, and consistent follow-through. Comfort with telehealth, electronic documentation, timely results review, patient communication, and working autonomously while remaining an engaged teammate.

A part-time start. Room to become more.

We’re looking for clinicians who want to grow with a practice—not simply fill appointment slots.

You’ll have clinical autonomy with real collaboration, shared learning and case discussions, and a voice in shaping our services, protocols, and patient experience. Bring your expertise, share your ideas, and work alongside colleagues who value the connection between physical and mental health.

As patient demand and the practice expand, there is potential for increased hours, an eventual full-time role, and opportunities in leadership, mentorship, education, and program development.

Our Performance & Engagement Framework supports meaningful feedback, professional development, recognition, and discretionary quarterly bonus opportunities, subject to eligibility and program terms. We value clinical quality, collaboration, initiative, and follow-through—not just appointment volume.

And bring your personality.

We take patient care seriously. There’s also room here for humor, team gatherings, social activities, and being a real human.

We appreciate people who communicate openly, take initiative, welcome feedback, and enjoy building something together. Primarily remote doesn’t have to mean disconnected.

The Mettā Vita Way

• Curiosity before judgment.
• Validation before advice.
• Connection before correction.

The Practical Details

Employment: Part-time / moonlighting, hourly W-2 employment.

Work arrangement: Primarily remote, with required periodic on-site visits in the Charlotte metropolitan area. Visits are planned in advance. Frequency, location, and travel arrangements will be discussed early in the hiring process and agreed upon before hiring.

Schedule

The agreed work schedule includes documentation, results review, care coordination, and training—not just patient visits. The current 16–24 monthly patient-care hours represent the combined panel across both openings, not the hours allocated to each provider.

Compensation and Benefits

Hourly compensation reflects experience, advanced training, and role scope. MVH provides benefits and leave required by applicable law. Details about additional benefits, paid time off, and eligibility will be discussed during hiring.

How to Apply

Submit your CV and indicate whether you are interested in the adult or pediatric/adolescent opening. You may also email admin@mettavitahealth.com with “Adult FM NP” or “Pediatric FM NP” in the subject line.

Include your completed functional/integrative training and certifications, current state licenses, openness to additional licensure, location, and availability.

Please also share a few sentences about your clinical approach, relevant experience, and what draws you to integrating physical and mental health care. No separate cover letter is required.

We’re building a practice people want to receive care from—and a team people want to be part of.

Should I post on MVH socials too?

Worked for 2m 5s

Yes—post on MVH’s Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. I would treat it as an invitation to join the team or refer a great clinician, rather than put the entire ADP job description on your patient-facing pages.

I’d also share it through your own professional network. LinkedIn supports sharing an existing job associated with your organization, so that can complement the company-page post. LinkedIn

For MVH’s public channels, leave out the exact panel hours, detailed bonus framework, and provider-transition details. Lead with the work, the team, and the opportunity. Keep the formal-training and two-year experience requirements visible so it still attracts the right applicants. Adult FM provider Job Posting Pediatric FM provider
