We are looking for pediatric psychologists, pediatric neuropsychologists, autism and neurodevelopmental psychologists, and psychologists with expertise in child and adolescent primary behavioral health concerns in all professional stages to help build Behavioral Health services with an ongoing mission to champion high-quality services that improve the well-being of children throughout Ohio.
