Remote or in person at ANNA's Missouri centers
Independent Contractor (1099) | $150–$200 per hour
ANNA (Allied Network for Neurodevelopmental Advancement) is a mission-driven organization that provides ABA services to young autistic children (under the age of 6) and their families using a neurodiversity-affirming, Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention (NDBI) approach. We operate multiple centers across Massachusetts and Missouri and are looking for an experienced licensed psychologist to expand diagnostic access for Missouri families.
The Licensed Clinical Psychologist conducts diagnostic evaluations — delivered via telehealth or in person at ANNA's Missouri centers — for young children (under age 6) referred for suspected autism spectrum disorder across ANNA's Missouri market. This contractor role owns the full evaluation lifecycle: record review, caregiver interview, assessment administration, differential diagnosis, report writing, and family feedback sessions.
The psychologist partners with ANNA's clinical and revenue cycle teams to ensure evaluations are timely, defensible to payors, and delivered with a neurodiversity-affirming, family-centered approach. Success is measured by evaluation timeliness, report quality and turnaround, family experience, and documentation that supports clean claims.
You are a skilled diagnostician who finds meaning in giving families clarity at one of the most consequential moments in their child's early life. You bring rigor to differential diagnosis, warmth to feedback conversations, and discipline to documentation and turnaround. You are energized by expanding diagnostic access for Missouri families and by helping shape an evaluation model — remote and in person — that is both clinically defensible and family-friendly.
Doctorate in Clinical or School Psychology (PhD or PsyD)
Active, unrestricted Missouri psychologist license in good standing
3+ years conducting pediatric diagnostic evaluations, including autism-specific assessment
Proficiency with gold-standard and telehealth-adapted instruments (ADOS-2, ADI-R, TELE-ASD-PEDS, Vineland-3, or equivalents)
Ability to deliver evaluations via telehealth, in person at ANNA's Missouri centers, or both
Professional liability insurance; HIPAA-compliant remote work setup for telehealth delivery
At ANNA, we are working to transform autism care by combining rigorous clinical training, compassionate family-centered practice, and neurodiversity-affirming approaches. Our NDBI model supports each child’s strengths through play-based, developmentally informed care. This role is how we make sure that every time ANNA enters a new market, whether by opening a new center or absorbing an existing one, it comes online cleanly and runs well, so the operators and clinicians delivering that care can focus on kids and families.
