Nearly 1 out of 6 California adults and 1 out of 13 California children struggle with mental health issues. The state of California is experiencing a shortage of providers to care for psychiatric patients. We can address this need with psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners. Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners address the clients through inter-disciplinary and team-based care that places the patient and family at the center of care. PMHNPs help patients by providing therapies, medications, care coordination and more.

At 91Æƽâ°æ, we pioneered hybrid education for nurse practitioners more than 25 years ago. That tradition continues today as we use an evidence-based approach to educate PMHNPs to meet the mental health needs of clients in school systems, community clinics, substance abuse treatment centers, private offices, shelters, hospitals, and more.
