Wanting to work is mental health RN/PA/NP
Hi everyone,
My dream is to work in mental health and probably relocate back to Northern VA where I was born.
I'd like to be able to prescribe meds and do psychotherapy and such.
I was pre-med in college but unsure if I want to continue to med school.
I have been reading about the psychiatric NP and it seems very interesting. Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Seems like in many ways it would be better (more freedom) that a PA in psychiatry.
Or maybe I should just do the year post bacc...
