The Psych NP Episode 2: How I started a Private Practice

[@mohamedfaiadsw5770]

Awesome video! Appreciate the knowledge. Maybe this could be a series where you go into the do’s and donts of starting a practice and talk more about the bussiness side of it like how you financed it and your systems. Appreciate the massive value you are adding and hope everything works out with you, hope to see more, thank you!

I like your approach of just starting small.. only seeing a few pts every Saturday. This is such a great idea because like you said, you're still able to keep your FT job(s) while still learning the ins-and-outs of the private practice game. Thanks for sharing! FYI, I'll be graduating from my PMHNP program in 1 year and I hope to start working in outpt telehealth and eventually start my own practice someday.

Dope video! Def learned a lot from your video! Keep up the great work! #goat

[@anthonyrohrer]

Enjoying the videos. If I may offer one tip, the intro/outro volume is INSANELY loud compared to your voice in the video. I would suggest normalizing those, for the sake of everyone.

Filipino psych NPs! * lookin into starting my own practice. Marylands free roam no collabo law is where it's at. Ive spoken to my collabo doc maybe twice in the last year and a half and pretty much just manage my patients myself. Currently work 4 days a week 9 to 5 averaging maybe 9 to 14 pts a day and am doing a lot of additional supportive psychotherapy, solution focused, cbt restructuring things. Quick questions...1) Are your 2 jobs you work with large institutions or other larger practices? I need health benefits for a family of 4. 2) Would you recommend slowly transitioning to your private practice? 3) What EHR would you recommend as a startup? 4) besides the zoom or other companies you mentioned to help with credentialing, is there a company you know or recommend that helps with basically the whole setup process? There's limited information availabile online and if I find some good tips or info, a lot of it is dated years ago, a lot of info is Generalized to FNPs, telehealth practice startups, and there is not much info as to how much I could project coming in vs overhead with extra fees to keep things running. Apologies for all the questions. I guess it all boils down to asking if you know of any other resources or companies that could answer my inquiries up above? I'm a huge fan and want to tell you I was watching all of your earlier stuff when I was applying to grad school around 2018 2019. Time flies as I now can relate to all of the difficult learning experiences new grad psych NPs go through. Lastly, I just wanna tell you that there were few psych NPs posting videos at the time but your videos really helped me navigate from starting grad school, going through gradschool, and as a new grad NP. I didn't start feeling comfortable and confident enough until working about 2.5 to 3 years as a new grad. Biggups to you and thank you for sharing your knowledge and personal experiences through your channel over the years. You are a great motivation for me at this time and I hope to make my mark in the MH world of private practice!

Thank you so much for this video. I learned so much from just watching it.

[@Alexander-mk9kg]

Dude very helpful, thank you!

[@khadramohamed8367]

You give amazing info. I am happy I can across your channel today. I have been inpatient psych nurse for over 7 years now. I do inpatient psych casually now and My current full time job is public health, which by the way lets me work from home and often feels lone and job never ends. I am starting my DNP psych this fall. Thank you for giving back as you have answered many questions I had too. I am interested in finding more about creating my own practice once I am provider. Do you practice in the state of Maryland?

[@t.b4652]
