When hiring a CPA be sure to select one that will look out for your best interest rather than the IRS’. Too many of them avoid legal deductions & strategies because they are afraid of an audit, or don’t know the rules well enough.
Yes thank you! This is very important.. I pinned this comment
Any suggestions on what to look for in them?
Im in school for NP, when you said the quality of work is different i almost choked on my coffee. That medsurg floor will kill you before you retire.
Have you in a body bag early 😂
@@angelthepsychnp253 😂😂😂
Love your channel! I just got accepted into an accelerated BSN program from being an RT and hope to continue my journey to be a PMHNP afterwards, mainly for the flexibility of schedule and options to still help people as I get older. Thank you for all of your videos.
That is awesome!
Thank you.. welcome! I love my RTs!! Yall hold the fort down for me always in ICU!
Thanks for being a big sister to us! I had to stop watching these CZcams NP videos because people were either negative or territorial when giving “advice”. You gave honest and encouraging feedback so I appreciate that!
You are so welcome!
@@angelthepsychnp253the patients 💩 pooping almost no one talks about on youtube and cleaning them as a bedside nurse. Great channel
Love how real you are. I'm an RN in Florida, and you've given me some good motivation to go for that psych NP. It was also my goal but I need to get to it.
Let’s go! Florida ain’t paying us crap lol!! Get to it! The time is going to pass either way! Whether you in school or not! Get started
This is so true. At my first psych NP job I work part time for a company, they billed $30,000 in my name one month after taxes I only made $4200month *Robbery*
By the time I left they had billed close to $600, 000 in my name & i wasnt even make 6figures. I tried to stay bc it was my 1st NP job but the disrespect/poor pay was too much for me. Currently have a better job but im still thinkng locum maybe the way to go!! Thanks for info!!😮😢
Right!!! Try locums you will like it
if you think that is robbery i have a close friend who is a psych np...he worked in private practice for his first job...after a couple of months he said he realized he should not have signed the contract he did...he thought he was getting 70/30 with him getting the 70%...but his contract read something like his boss would also get 30% of his first $5000 per month plus the 30%...he would then get 70% if he makes more than $5000...he said he does not make 6 figures stayed there 2 years and left
Did you find a better paying job that you like?
Currently in PMHNP school. I’ve been a psych tech, nursing aid, and now a psych nurse. Boy I tell you it’s a burn out. The ratios in behavioral is sad, family stories are sick, I’ve seen and heard so much. How bout the verbal and physical abuse. But if don’t do who else is gonna do it. It absolutely have to be your calling.
Yes the stories are chilling! That’s why I’m not quick to judge.. it definitely has to be purpose or you will hate this field
YOU WILL BE AWESOME! I LOVE HEARTING STORIES AND SEEING PEOPLE WITH ACTUAL "PSYCH" EXPERIENCE UNDER THEIR BELT PURSUING A PSYCHIATRIC NURSE PRACTITIONER CERT/LICENSE. YOU WILL BE AWESEOME!
@@angelthepsychnp253😊How many yrs is needed to complete the PMHNP degree! Is it considered a Doctorate in Nursing?
Best of luck to you!
Thanks for doing this. We need more people being transparent about their income because it helps to better equip us when we want to negotiate our salaries.
Yes I agree thank you for watching
"But I aint got no money" 🤣😂 This is my favorite line lol. I wanted to be a psychologist growing up but I let negative comments steer me away. I can't wait to be a PMHNP!
Sis I ain’t got it 😂.. yes come to the field
You are truly an Angel for being so transparent and honest!
Awww thanks Chantae ☺️
Thank you for sharing this. I am a LPN in Virginia and want to go back to school to become a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.
Do it sis
I’ve appreciated your videos so much. I’m in school for pmhnp and I don’t know anyone personally who has done it. You’ve answered a lot of my questions. Thank you!
Thank you for watching Frenchie glad I can help 🫶🏾
I appreciate your transparency and can tell you are authentic. I am a FNP and will be graduating with my PMHNP this spring. I have always wanted to own my own practice. You are an inspiration and I am now a subscriber!
Congrats Ashley and welcome to PMHNP life! I’m glad you are open to private practice I think this is the area where all NPs thrive and you having FNP to you will do well with both specialties 🫶🏾
Great information. Thank you!
Just found you!! Love that you’re real. I’m finishing up my post masters pmhnp. I’m a CNM and running a small health center. Worked with some of the toughest populations over my long career. Will be starting my own practice and consulting at some point.
Thank you for being real!!❤
Welcome to the field! Yes private practice and consulting is the way to go.. you are coming in with the right mindset.. congrats
HOW MUCH LONG TERM CHRONIC CARE PSYCH EXPERIENCE DO YOU HAVE? DO YOU HAVE A LONG TERM INPATIENT PSYCH HOUSPITAL NEAR ME THAT TYPICALLY HOUSES THE SEVERE MENTAL HEALTH CASES IE- PSYCHOTIC/MOOD DISCORDERS- SCHZIOPHERNIA, SCHZIOAFFECTIVE DISORDERS, BIPOLAR MANIC TYPES ETC ETC. I AM ASKING THIS BECAUSE.....F YOU DO NOT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF YEARS UNDER YOUR BELT BEING... INPATIENT AND OUTPATIENT PSYCH EXPERIENCE THIS IS NOT RECOMMENDED. PSYCH PROVIDER WORK IS NOT FOR THE BOOK SMART- IT TRULY TAKES 5-10 YEARS EXPERIENCE BEFORE ONE SHOULD EVER CONSIDER PRIVATE PRACTICE- OTHERWISE YOU WILL GET SUED.. BTQ- I AM A NURSE PRACTITIONER AND I ALSO WORK AS A ADVANCED PRACTICE LEGAL NURSE CONSULTANT- MEDICAL MALPRATICE AND MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE CASES ETC ETC. NOTHING PISSES ME OFF MORE THAN REVIEWING CHARTS AND SEEING SHITTY MEDICATION COMBINATIONS AND CRAPPY FOLLOW UP. PEOPLE ARE COMMITING SUICIDE AT RAPID RATES IN THE UNITED STATES AND YOU WILL BE THE FIRST TO BLAME SO BE CAREFUL AND KEEP IT LOW AND GO SLOW! BEST WISHES TO YOU!! XOXO.
Love your content! Definitely do not go into the field for money. I started with being a Psych Tech for 3 years before going to nursing school and as soon as I was done with nursing school I became a Psych RN at the hospital near me. Patients can be violent to the nurses and psych NPs or psychiatrists. Some providers get concussions from these patients. It definitely is not as glamorous as people think. I am in psych NP school now and can't wait to be done and start that journey
Thank you for watching! Yes you know the truth lol! But I’m glad you are still in the field! Welcome!
I appreciate your insight & transparency!
I love that you are putting this out there and being honest

Wow thanks for the insight! Your channel is amazing you give real-world talk advice and I love your makeup!❤
Awww thanks Kimmy!! Yes thank you for watching! I’m happy it’s helping someone!!
Hey girl, thank you for the inspiration, ive always been intrested in psych even thought a lot of people look at me funny for liking it but this has opened my eyes to more opportunities in the field definetly intrested in opening a practice or traveling one day
Go for it! We need you in the field
This was good ❤
Thank you
I work in corrections as a RN contractor and a PMHNP-BC in addictions. Its hard some days but these people really, really need help. You ate speaking facts.
Yes they do
So glad I found your channel liked and subscribed! Very informative got my BSN and MBA Healthcare Management thinking hard about this DNP program Psych has always been my first love. We need more in this field my moto is Mental Health is Health! Looking forward to more of your videos 🙌🏾❤
Thank you!!!! A friend of mine is back in school for her MBA she is a nurse too! But if you love psych! We always welcome the true lovers of psych into the field
I think this is really good insight! I think there are so many other options when it comes to “making a lot of money” in other fields if money is your goal. I’m a nurse and this stuff gets rough so I can only imagine a NP
You are absolutely right -- PMHNP here -- you have to be able to create firm boundaries around yourself because you are going to be hearing a lot of trauma and horrible things every day - you are getting paid to allow others a safe place to basically drop all their horror onto you and into that space - so that you can assist them. It is hard - money is good, but there is a reason it is good.
Yesssss I like the way you put that.. you are getting paid to allow others a safe place!!
Thank you for watching
I am an RN interested in becoming a PMHNP and this is something that I was wondering about. How do you keep yourself from absorbing other people’s problems?
You got me sold. I’m applying for school soon!!! Not for the money but to help people!!
Congrats on the decision to go back school
What a great and transparent video. Thank you for putting out this video and giving some insight to question I always wondered about. I’ve always loved mental health and a reason I decided to do nursing since 2008. Started off as a home health tech, to a cna, registered nurse focused in psych, and just passed my board exam. Money was never a motivator but great to see that it’s there to make me have financial freedom. Private practice is the endgame for me so thank you for this information.
Yes! You have the right mind set!!! Private practice!!
You are correct about the companies. I have my own practice set up, and spoke with them “companies”. To be honest it’s not worth it being private. You can keep that money yourself, your patients are coming to you because of your likeness not theirs so remember that!
Thank you for that
I love love love your vibe! I’m an ICU step down/ telemetry RN.
Are u considering pmhnp or crna … I’m an icu nurse too
Thank you 😊
Thank so much for being transparent with pay and pros and cons for of the job! Look into also into getting an S Corp in addition to your LLC. When you pay yourself through an LLC, you are taxing yourself as a worker at a high rate. If you run payroll through your corporation (S Corp), and you are listed as the business owner and employee, youre taxed at a much lower rate and have more writing off power. Something to ask your CPA about! We’re also a high earning income family and made a dramatic difference in the amount of quarterly taxes we were paying. We’re also in FL. Love your channel
Thank you for the advice!!! I really appreciate it! Continued success and overflow for your business! Thank you for watching
You are amazing thanks for sharing
You’re welcome Dawnie thanks for watching
Yesss…. I live in Massachusetts and I’m currently in PMHNP school graduating in 2025. When I tell you psych jobs are in an all time high.
Yeessss Massachusetts is like the psych hub for jobs!!!! You will be fine
Looking forward to seeing your private practice journey! This is the first video of yours that I have watched and I had to subscribe. I am an RN, considering enrolling in a PMHNP program. It’s not all about the money for me but I do want to make a decent living and find a field that I enjoy. While I enjoy the connections that I make with my patients, I do not feel that bedside is my purpose. Let me go run and follow you on IG as well! 🏃🏾♀️
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for the transparency! I am an FNP student who desires to earn a PMHNP certificate. This has been a plan for me since elementary school. Even more so, because bedside is physically breaking me down! Let me go finish that homework assignment.🤣!
Listen!!! Beside will have you mentally, emotionally and physical drained
This was a very thorough video! Thank you. This is definitely not a field for me. I wanted to be a psychologist for years, but didn’t want to get the doctorate.i don’t think I can hear those stories every day and not go crazy. God bless your work and your mental health! ❤️🙏🏾
Thank you for recognizing it and not joint a field that you will be unhappy with
Thank you for the valuable info. I love that photo of Ciara modeling Chanel fits. I’m just getting started & planning on going the private practice route and I’m currently getting my license to operate a HCBS agency.
That’s not Ciara lol random pic out of home goods lol … keep going
@@angelthepsychnp253 lol looks just like her. I still love the photo. And Thank you
Thank you for sharing this information. I am also a Travel ICU RN that is looking to advance my career. I want to own more of my time and have opportunities to increase my current income and therefore am looking to go to NP. Looking at going to psych as my sister is a psychologist and encouraged me to pursue it to assist her in her practice. This definitely provided me with some great insights!
You’re welcome
I’m here to follow you FOREVER 😂🥰 I’m a sociology major 07 and work with psych patients in the ED and currently in the ADN program. My goal is definitely private practice ‼️ Thanks for going into detail
You’re welcome ☺️
I’m currently an orthopedic RN. It’s unfulfilling. Behavioral health is my calling. I’m definitely going to apply for psych positions to gain experience in the field and then pursue a PMHNP program.
Go for it
Thank you for this video. I'm working as a PMHNP-BC and as an AGNP-C presently...same company. It's hard doing both, but I love it. Taking care of God's people is my passion. When I first finished my PMHNP-BC, I opened my own practice...almost two years ago.I kept it open for one year. It was too much for me, doing it solo. I'm working, in my PMHNP-BC role, one day a week; however, I know I'm not being utilized to my full capacity and know I'm not being paid what I know I am worth. I'm looking to do more and expand. Relocation is not a probelm for me, as I don't have any holds in this area. All my children are grown and I'm not married. I just have to figure out which way to go. Thank you for this video. It helped me a lot! Blessings to you!
private practice is not easy
Blessed yes maam
Gods grace and mercy 🙌🏾
Such a helpful video I currently work remote with the hospital organization in California and my gross is 16,000 a month so I would like to explore that will allow me to work remotely so thank you so much for this video new subscriber
You are welcome Cali money ALWAYS different lol
So 👍 true 👍
Love your content. I would love to start my own practice as well. Any insights?
thank you
Coming soon
Hey I’m a registered nurse and want to go back to school for psych NP well that’s the goal this year. Thanks for your video because I have no one, but social media to turn too for knowledge.
You’re not welcome.. I’m glad I can help
Thanks
Can you do a video talking about how you start a private practice as a PMHNP? Thanks Angel ❤
Yes! I will do that! I’m learning as I go.. but I will lol
Hello! I have a degree in Psychology. I also wanted to go for psychiatry to begin with, but like you said life. I’m now going for Nursing. My sister is a NP and recommended me to go for Psych NP. I’m starting my associates soon. I see a lot of people going in with me for the money and these people are not built for this field. They do not have the empathy that’s needed. Hopefully they will grow.
Yes they will be in and out of the field! They will get burned out quickly
New subbie here!
Thank you Olivia 🥰
Motivation
Thank you SO SO much for being so transparent. I always wanted to understand the difference between a W2 and 1099, so thanks for explaining this to us. I have been a RN for 18 years, and a MA-C, and decided to go back to school for my MSN-PMHNP. I am perusing this route because it’s my passion but you’re so right…it is a burn out at the bedside, to the point I am over it. I’ve done travel nursing but I’m definitely looking forward to getting away from the bedside and being of assistance to people who need it. I have followed you and now will be watching all of your videos. Thank you!
Awwww thank you! I happy you a joining the field we need passionate people who really care.. I did travel nursing from 2015 to early 2022.. now I’m doing travel pmhnp! Thank you for following and watching! The journey up is worth it! 🤞🏾
@@angelthepsychnp253 that is so awesome! I would love to learn more about the travel NP.
Not bad at all 19:56 I think it’s a lot but it’s definitely worth it… IF YOU ARE PASSIONATE. Take the time to figure it out how to make it work in your benefit.
Agreed! Thanks for watching
Thats why patient care is declining, due to people going to school only for the money. You really have to have the compassion to be willing to help people. I dislike going to see doctors now, because they try run unnecessary test.
Agreed!!
That's pretty good. I think after a couple of years of practice, I want to partner in a private practice. I want the flexibility, not waiting to find out if my vacay is approved.
Bedside is rough, I'm one of those nurses with the back issues. ED and psych.
I've never traveled, but I plan to this Spring/Summer after graduation, after I pass my boards,🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🤞🏾 before I take a FT PMHNP gig.
Thank you for the transparency and tips. This video has me excited. Can't you tell from this long @%÷ comment, lol.....
Bedside is no joke on your mind and body! Yes the freedom is important! That’s why I traveled since my 2nd year of nursing! Make sure to include your days off In your contract before you sign when you start traveling! Yes we waiting on you to finish school and join us 🫶🏾
Thank you for sharing, amazing video however I’m concerned because I made 5,000 one week as a travel psych RN in Washington state- however I was working the holidays too
Yes that’s why I say as a traveler you can make similar money if not the same money. But it’s location dependent! Washington is one the states I believe you can make money as a PHMNP.. also the quality of work is very different!
@@angelthepsychnp253 yes this is true thank you 🙏
When I tell you I binge watch your videos.....LADY......your content is amazing! I start my prison contract because of you! ......something that I NEVER thought I wanted to do so thank you❤
Awwwww I’m shedding a
psych tear 🤣.. THANK YOU 🙏🏾…I hope you enjoy it.. I think it’s a great learning opportunity as well so don’t miss the lessons!! Please please keep me posted on your thoughts and experience…
@@angelthepsychnp253 Omgggg I just hollered at this nurses station!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I will definitely keep you posted!!!!
Are you a new graduate PMHNP or have experience? I'm a new graduate in California and saw (on another video) you mentioned starting in Washington. That's right on my coast & I have heard that they & Oregon have great needs. Do you mind sharing the name of your agency with me? I have tons of RN Correctional experience. Thanks!
@tashapsychnp9845 I was just offered a corrections Psych Contract in WA state? IDK if I'm taking it yet, but can you share your experience with me so far? Thanks!
@@ChainBreakerswithDrTrista congrats! Let me know how it goes if you take it
Thanks so much for your transparency and starting school next fall important to know what we’re worth! I live in Jersey but work in New York City as a nurse I have young kids, so wouldn’t be able to travel far. Do you see availability for local contracts in my area?
I do see a lot of work in NY.. I’m not sure if it will be a local contract but you shouldn’t have a problem finding work in New York.. I’m working with someone who did clinical at a hospital in NJ and they hired her to run the floor as a new grad.. she lives in florida now but she is considering moving back to NJ because the pay in Florida sucks..
11:15 I've been reading in one of the pmhnp groups that insurance and pharmices are refusing to fill medication from out of state telehealth providers.
Yes I’ve read some of those comments to! I’m thinking this will change back in the near future.. I’ve also read that some of it is me medication dependent.. stimulants, benzos which makes perfect sense .. i plan to do more research on my journey to private practice! Thank you for watching
@@angelthepsychnp253 Absolutely!! I'm currently a pmhnp student and can't wait to watch your private practice journey!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🩷
Hi Angel, I discovered you recently and I so appreciate your direct and honest delivery of knowledge that you share with us aspiring PMHNPs. It is so inspiring; and, you are so funny while doing it!
Since my 20s I have been interested in this field because I have had profound success in treating my own depression and anxiety with medication, as well as then becoming capable of learning ways to be healthy with therapy as my depression is treated enough to allow me to focus on the larger context.
The idea of helping people find their own voice so they can then move on from their trauma and or psychiatric disorders is very appealing to me. The positive effect these drugs can have on the shifting of awareness can be life-changing.
I would like to incorporate some targeted psychotherapy in my practice. Is that something you have any thoughts on with respect to the PMHNP role?
At age 35 I got my BSN as a second career with this goal in mind. At age 42, after working bedside and some hospice for 7 years, I have finally applied to PMHNP school! I am very excited for this journey.
Good luck on your private practice journey! That is my ultimate goal.
So yes you can add psychotherapy Jorje many do and it adds more way to bill and make more money I will make a video about private practice
That’s what I’m most afraid of. I wanna help people heal but I’m pretty sure some things will be triggering.
I also have a psych degree! I’ve been a Direct Support Professional for 7 years and have witnessed a lot of behaviors and personalities… I feel so much more confident now in my abilities to be able to handle intense situations. Fresh out of college, I went for Mental Health Counseling and backed out because I doubted my effectiveness as a counselor. Here I am, now considering psychiatriac nursing/np. Thank you so much for sharing your story and educating us as well ❤
Yes come if you love psych! The people need you! Mental health is on the rise
@@angelthepsychnp253 Absolutely! I definitely feel pulled. I commend you for following your gut
This video was super helpful! Where are you finding the information/ checklist to open your private practice?
Honestly finding info all over the place.. I’m going to do a series here “journey to private practice”
Great information! I am new graduate in Texas & the market is horrible they are paying new PsychNP $44.00 an hour!!! I plan on doing government contracting with the VA ASAP. What groups are you on in Facebook?
Type in pmhnp tons of groups.. I’m in so many lol but that’s usually how I find them
Because they know that some of those newly minted nurses, now NPs, will and are taking that low pay.
Hello! Thank you for making this video because, I see alot of people running into mental health only because of money. These were some of the same people who did FNP and got the market saturated. Many of them have never worked in mental health or up that close and personal with patient. It's crazy. Soon the market will become saturated and pay will drop.
The market will become saturated but I honestly feel like the best routes for NPs to make the most money FNP or PMHNP is private practice.. the work is there! But these companies only given NPS ta small percentage of what they make off us..
Don't be afraid. The market will not become saturated, and mental illness has always and will remain a global crisis. It is on the rise on a daily basis.
Preach! That's exactly what I have been saying.
I came to get the name of the company you worked for (you commented it under a post I made a while back) & was in for a treat, noticing that you had a bunch of new videos out! 🤸♀️ I just watched the ALL!
I finished my MSN PMHNP last August & just got done with my DNP & I want locums BAD! I hate working a full-time job in a permanent location 😢. I have a ton of prison experience as an RN, so hopefully I can land a corrections/forensic psych contract doing inpatient. I'm wanting to learn as much as I can, so I'm open! Thank you sooo much for your content.
Heeeyyy!!!! Congratulations!!! Thank you for binge watching 🤣…Dang you got the DNP already! 😩! It’s been on my mind lately simply for self fulfillment because it doesn’t make us anymore money lol.. BUT its locum tenums.COM.. I feel you! I’m on a local prison contract at home and I’m ready to go to another city lol.. but yes that RN experience will make it a even easier transition for you.. hope you find something soon!!
@@angelthepsychnp253 you're welcome! I love your content, as you said in one video, there isn't a lot of travel NP content, so when I can find some...that's great! DNP, nor MSN were ever in my plans, but 10 years after working as a RN, I felt the urge to go for my MSN, then randomly in my final semester of the MSN program, I decided to go for DNP while I still had the school spirit in me (it was only a 3 semester, online program in my hometown of SC). The program is super easy IMO, nothing to stress about. I will keep you updated, if an assignment comes through for me as a new grad, or not. 🤗
@@ChainBreakerswithDrTrista I am from SC. What DNP program did you graduate from?
Hey! I went to Francis Marion in Florence.@@MsMikkiG11
What are your opinions on oversaturation? I hear it’s a hot degree right now with a lot of people going into it, but from my research job outlook is really good and there’s the issue of burn out. I feel like it’s the same with nursing, a lot of people go into it with bright ideas but not liking it and switching to something else
Which group are you a part of? Is it on Favorite? If so do you mind sharing? Currently a PMHNP student and trying to gather as much information as possible to set my self up right by the time I graduate. 🙏
Angel, thank you!
What is the FB group?
Type in PMHNP.. there are tons do groups
Im watching this now but last night i was talking to my aunty and i said eh you know who need counselors? She said who? I said counselors
How new NPs should negotiate their first income or what should be included in the negotiation ?
As a new Psych NP you probably cant go into private practice without experience first. What do you suggest? Get experience and then do private practice? Travel is not ideal as I have family and young family.
Yes I think you should have some type of experience! To feel comfortable! These are people who have everyday lives not in a facility so we want to make sure we providing them with a quality of care! So maybe you have to take a job that’s paying whatever it’s paying in your area! Get comfortable then private practice! It doesn’t take long to get comfortable.. what I have seen is people take a job even if not paying the most.. keep a per diem at bedside.. while they gain experience.. and when comfortable private practice
I haven’t watched this video all the way through yet. So I should probably save this comment but anyway here we go. We work for money. It’s not all about the money I understand that but we work for money let’s not for get that. I will play golf for free I’ll chill with my friends for free I’ll do anything I enjoy for free. But honey trust me I won’t ever work a day in my life for an employer for free. I truly understand it’s not about the money it is however nice to know what to expect and that’s what has brought most of us to your video. Maybe I took the beginning of your video a little too personal and I’m sorry but I had to say my peace.
You can always make money you can do tons of things to make money. But at what cost are you willing to make money is the important question right? why do something you don’t wanna do for money? granted you might not want to go to work everyday but you have bills. My point is this can be a mentally draining field listening to people talk about their trauma and no amount of money is worth your own physical and mental health.
How do psychiatrist diagnose without a biomakers? Is chemical imbalance of the brain a myth or fact? Also, can the diagnoses in the DSM-5 be scientifically proven? I am just curious. Waiting for your reply?
