You are not an NP. Someone who wants to own a medspa as an NP should choose an NP specialty that will provide education and training related to that. Psych does not. The best bet for the OP is FNP or AGPCNP. In addition, if the medspa does not wo...

Other people provided those tips. I wanted to address the obvious and this is what you will need to do as a PMHNP. I also find it alarming that you seem to have a reluctance to use medications as a solution when you plan to be a PMHNP. Your main f...
1. I suggest you talk to an employement attorney. Sounds like a hostile work environment. First consult is free.
