The psychiatrist will serve as a resource in symptom management of psychosis with a strong knowledge base in psychopharmacology.

Reporting to the Medical Leader of the Coastal EPI Program, the psychiatrist will be a part of providing evidence based treatment interventions and will participate in the training and education of medical students, residents and other allied health professionals.
