Frequently Asked Questions

The Academy is designed for healthcare professionals and trainees who want practical, real-world education in psychiatric care, professional growth, and private practice development. Our courses are structured to support learners at different stages of their journey and are appropriate for:

• PMHNP students seeking a strong clinical foundation, structured learning, and exposure to real-world psychiatric practice before graduation
   
• Newly certified PMHNPs and early-career psychiatric providers looking to build confidence, improve clinical workflows, and strengthen diagnostic and treatment decision-making
   
• Experienced PMHNPs and psychiatric providers who want updated, evidence-based education, advanced clinical pearls, and guidance on practice optimization
   
• Clinicians transitioning into psychiatry who want organized, practical instruction that bridges theory with day-to-day clinical application
   
• Providers interested in starting or growing a private practice, including side practices, telepsychiatry, or full-time independent practice models
   

Our courses are intentionally designed to be inclusive of learners at different experience levels, offering structured frameworks, practical tools, and clinically relevant content that can be applied immediately, whether you are still in training or have been practicing for years.

No.  

The mentorship program is not a review class for the PMHNP ANCC/AANP certification exam. Instead, it is a comprehensive and tailored bootcamp designed to deepen your expertise as a PMHNP. It covers a broad scope of topics critical to clinical practice, including detailed diagnostic approaches, clinical pearls, psychopharmacology, and therapeutic techniques. The focus is on providing you with a well-rounded understanding and hands-on skills necessary for success in real-world clinical settings.

On the other hand, our review program is specifically designed for exam preparation. It is concise and directly aligned with the ANCC/AANP exam outline, focusing on the content you need to succeed on the certification exam. This program is streamlined and tailored specifically to the exam’s requirements, ensuring you’re fully prepared to excel in the certification process.

In short, the mentorship program builds your practical, clinical expertise, while the review program is a focused, exam-specific preparation. Both are essential but serve distinct purposes in your professional development. 

If you’re looking specifically for PMHNP ANCC/AANP certification exam preparation, we do offer dedicated review courses through Georgette’s PMHNP Certification Review Courses.

Yes. We welcome:

• Students/trainees who want to strengthen foundations early, learn structured thinking, and build confidence before independent practice.
   
• Residents and early-career clinicians who want real-world frameworks, workflow efficiency, and clinical reasoning support.
   
• Experienced providers who want updated best practices, advanced clinical pearls, systems improvement, or private practice growth support.
   

We design content to be practical, evidence-informed, and adaptable to your current level.

Yes—with one important rule: access begins after the scheduled live session date/time.

Here’s how it works:

• If a course is scheduled, for example, on March 29, you can purchase it ahead of time, but you will not get access to the course until March 29 (the scheduled live date).
  
• After the scheduled live session happens, anyone can purchase the course and study independently using the recording from the most recent session.
   
• Post-live purchase includes:
   
  • One-month access to the course recording
     
  • Ongoing access to other course materials/content in your portal (templates, guides, downloads, and included resources)
     

Important: After the live session date passes, purchasers do not get a new scheduled live date—they receive the recording from the previous session plus portal content.

Yes. Participants who can’t attend the full live session receive one-month access to the recording, plus full portal access to course materials to review at their own pace.

No. Mentors do not provide direct patient care or assume clinical responsibility or liability.

Mentors/community contributors are not liable for how you use educational suggestions. You remain responsible for clinical and business decisions.

Yes—optional paid mentorship pairing after completion.

Not at this time. While the Academy does not currently offer CE credits, our programs are designed to provide valuable knowledge and practical skills you can apply right away.

A: Yes. You can schedule a 1:1 consultation with a mentor whether or not you purchase a course, and you do not need to be enrolled in the monthly subscription plan to receive a consultation.

That said, the monthly subscription plan is a more cost-effective option, as it includes ongoing support and pairing with a dedicated mentor. Members receive continued guidance at a lower overall cost compared to one-time consultations.

If you prefer, you may also choose a one-time 1:1 consultation without joining the subscription. Pricing for one-time consultations varies based on your needs, and a customized quote will be provided.
