The Opportunity

Our Mental Health Navigator (MHN) Program helps remove barriers to care by guiding members to appropriate resources through expert assessments and personalized recommendations—all delivered virtually. Our Canadian Mental Health team—composed of licensed therapists, psychiatrists, and psychologists— continues to grow. We are currently seeking a compassionate Psychiatrist in Quebec who is passionate about supporting people and eager to help shape the future of mental healthcare across Canada through innovative virtual care.

Position Summary

In this role, you will conduct one-time virtual psychiatric assessments for members seeking diagnostic clarification, treatment guidance, or support navigating the mental health system. You will review a pre-compiled clinical summary, meet with the member via secure video, and produce a comprehensive written report with evidence-based recommendations.

Key Responsibilities

• Consultation Management: Promptly review and respond to consultation requests based on your availability, providing open appointment slots within the program's scheduled timeframes.
• Clinical Review: Evaluate the member’s pre-compiled clinical summary, intake notes, and relevant medical records prior to the session.

About the MHN Program

Members typically access our navigation tool when they need expert clarity on their mental health journey, such as when:

• Current symptoms are not improving or care is not meeting their needs.
• There is uncertainty regarding their diagnosis.
• They require independent expert guidance on complex treatment options or next steps.

Note:

Teladoc Health Canada psychiatrists provide consultative recommendations only. Members are provided with a comprehensive report to share with their primary care team or treating physicians for implementation.

To minimize your administrative burden and allow you to focus entirely on the clinical assessment, Teladoc provides a dedicated, multidisciplinary support team for every case:

• Case Coordinator: Handles all scheduling, appointment booking, and technical coordination with the member.
• Medical Records Coordinator: Collects, organizes, and condenses relevant medical documentation into a clinical summary before you meet the member.
• Case Manager (Social Worker, Occupational Therapist, or RN): Conducts the initial psychosocial intake, supports the member throughout the process, and handles all post-assessment follow-ups.
