Psychotherapy Essentials Track

Physicians | Psych NPs | Psych PAs | Students

You thought psychiatry was more than rushing through appointments and prescribing meds... and you were right.

But how can you do more?

 

Psychotherapy Essentials may be a solution for you if...

  • Your training program prioritized medication management education and failed to deliver enough psychotherapy skills practice.
  • You recognize that psychotherapy is necessary for effective care, but you don't feel confident in providing or billing for psychotherapy.
  • You don't feel that other methods of learning psychotherapy have been effective or practical, such as buying books, seminars, and participating in multi-year uni-modality psychotherapy programs.
  • You're not sure how spending more time with patients can be profitable in a psychiatric practice.

You must be a:

Practicing psychiatrist

Primary care physician

PMHNP or Psychiatric PA student or early-career professional

FNP or PA transitioning to psychiatric practice

Why Psychotherapy?

  • Most patients are looking for more than a pill to solve their issues and are looking for more than a robot to prescribe them.
  • They seek an authentic connection with their health care team where they feel seen, heard, and supported.
  • Those hyperfocused on "finding the right medication" usually require more psychological intervention and end up being classified as treatment resistant because they tried all the meds.
  • Implementing practical psychotherapy techniques as a medical professional can help you jumpstart your patient's recovery, increase treatment adherence, transform your patients' lives.
  • Psychotherapy is an additional service you can bill for on top of a med management visit as psychiatric professionals, adding to your bottom line.
