PMHNP student

About the preceptor Tara is looking for:

Located near South Shore, MA.

I am seeking a preceptor who takes an integrative approach to mental health care for Summer and Fall 2025. I seek an experienced preceptor who can help further develop my advanced assessment, diagnostic, and treatment planning skills, with a strong emphasis on patient education. My ideal preceptor would value the collaborative process and work closely with patients to develop individualized treatment plans addressing their unique strengths and challenges. A preceptor focusing on evidence-based practices while remaining adaptable to the individual’s needs would be ideal for this learning opportunity.

I am seeking clinical placements for three upcoming practicum rotations, each requiring 180 hours of supervised clinical experience:
Practicum 1: May 19, 2025 – July 4, 2025
Practicum 2: July 7, 2025 – August 22, 2025
Practicum 3: September 2, 2025 – October 24, 2025

Across these three rotations, I am required to complete the following combined experiences:
Adult medication management – 180 hours
Pediatric medication management – 100 hours
Geriatric medication management – 100 hours
Psychotherapy – 100 hours

A PMHNP, MD, DO, or psychiatrist can provide clinical supervision for medication management and intake assessments. For the psychotherapy component, I may shadow a psychologist, LMHC, or LCSW. Practicums can be completed in inpatient or outpatient mental health settings. Telehealth is allowed for 100 hours.
