Trainings

PMHNP Foundations Workshop

A standalone 16-hour workshop for new and soon-to-be PMHNPs. The clinical workflow your program didn't teach you — intake, MSE, risk, formulation, psychopharm across the lifespan, documentation, and billing. Separate from our 43-CE Psychotherapy Skills program.

Psychotherapy Skills · Two ways to train

The online course teaches the frameworks. The live cohort builds fluency. Many clinicians do both — the online course first, then the cohort to put it into practice.

The curriculum

Five evidence-based modalities, one integrated framework

The same curriculum across both formats. Each module is taught with an explicit lens on how it integrates with prescribing — not as a parallel discipline, but as part of the same conversation.

1

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Changing the thoughts that drive the symptoms. Practical CBT for prescribing visits.

6–8 CE hours
2

Motivational Interviewing (MI)

Working with ambivalence — about medication, about change, about treatment itself.

6–8 CE hours
3

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

High-impact, short-form interventions that fit inside a 30-minute medication visit.

6–8 CE hours
4

Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

Working with grief, role transitions, and interpersonal disputes — the relational layer of psychiatric symptoms.

6–8 CE hours
5

Psychodynamic Approaches

Pattern, transference, and meaning — psychodynamic listening for the prescriber.

6–8 CE hours
6

Integration Module

Choosing modalities by presentation. Combining approaches within a single appointment.

4 CE hours
7

Capstone

Simulated patient encounters, reflective portfolio, and peer review.

3 CE hours
