welcome to the stress free psych NP community!

Stress Free Psych NP exists to help nurse practitioners (NPs) feel more clinically competent and confident in practice.  

NPs do incredibly difficult and important work. But that doesn’t mean practice should be filled with stress and uncertainty. 

Stress Free Psych NP empowers nurse practitioners to confidently diagnose and treat complex mental health patients. This comprehensive online platform offers in-depth resources on prescribing, diagnosis & assessment, clinical support, and boosting confidence & competence.

The flagship course, the Mental Disorders Crash Course, is approved for 13.1 contact hours of continuing ed (which includes 3.05 hours of pharmacology) by the AANP; it shares an organized step-by-step approach for how to diagnose & treat the most important mental disorders encountered.

We also offer a Psychiatric Evaluation Templates Bundle to create streamlined, expert templates for new and experienced psych–and family–NPs who want more clarity and efficiency in documentation.
