Talkiatry’s Chief Psychiatrist model is built on a foundation of peer leadership and tailored support. Each Chief is a full-time, board-certified psychiatrist who leads a cohort of clinicians. This structure ensures that every psychiatrist at Talkiatry has access to hands-on mentorship, localized insight, and expert guidance from someone who understands their clinical work and challenges.
As Talkiatry grows, new Chief Psychiatrists will be onboarded to maintain the same high level of support and clinical oversight. The model is specifically built to foster collaboration, strengthen care delivery, and reinforce Talkiatry’s commitment to its patients and clinicians.
“Our Chief Psychiatrists are essential to our clinical culture, empowering and supporting our team so they can provide high-quality treatment to our patients,” said Dr. Georgia Gaveras, Talkiatry’s Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer. “As exceptional psychiatrists and leaders, Dr. Tamoria and Dr. Posteraro bring rich backgrounds and heart to their work. I am thrilled to welcome them into these crucial roles at Talkiatry.”
Talkiatry’s clinical team now features more than 600 full-time, licensed psychiatrists and 200 therapists practicing virtual care across the country. The company remains focused on building a nationally scalable and clinically rigorous system that elevates the experience of both patients and providers.
