WHNP interested in perinatal mental health counseling practice

Published

I'm a WHNP and am interested in shifting my focus from ObGYN to counseling women in the perinatal period through talk therapy. I am undecided about whether I would also like to do pysch med management, which I understand would necessitate an advanced cert in PMHNP. I would like to work for myself in private practice one day. Interested to hear if anyone made this shift, and if so, what additional certifications / licensure you obtained in order to do this.
