no i am not pmhnp my cert is adult np. i only see adults in my practice. i never thought of it that way, thanks. definitely something to think about.

mammac5.......I made $30 an hour as a new grad 10 years ago. went to $40 after taking a few years off. and have stayed at $40 , but I see maybe I am not out of range. I have to think about all the aspects of my job, I do like it a lot, I work independently, my supervisor who works in another location is awesome, as is the support staff in the office. but more money is always good :)

I work in psych. I used to work in primary care as a new grad, then took a couple years off, then took this job 2 years ago. in between did some per diem. so all in all I have about 5-6 years experience. I have asked for a raise and was told because of decreased reimbursements a raise was not being given. I am at a loss as to what to do. I like all the other aspects of this job, but I feel like my rate should be higher, I am tempted to look elsewhere, but in all honestly I don't want to change jobs.

I am wondering what others that work for hourly pay make? I realize different parts of the country and different settings will be different amounts, but just looking for input on hourly rates. I always see average salary info for full time. which includes benefits. I currently work part time for $40 an hour. I have been at this rate for the past 2 years. In the northeast. and am wondering if I am underpaid, overpaid, or just right for my area :)
