About This Text

This foundational resource for PMH-APRN preparation across the lifespan integrates psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, and complementary approaches. Chapters connect neurobiology and evidence to practical treatment planning, with algorithms and decision trees that mirror real-world evaluation and management.

“This textbook is our go-to book. It is an excellent overview of advanced practice in psychiatric nursing. This is the text that we use in our seminar courses during clinical, and we also use it in our review for our ANCC boards. Our students’ scores were 92% this past year!” ―Dr. Cheryl Zauderer, PhD, CNM, PMHNP-BC, Associate Dean of Graduate Programs, Co-Coordinator, PMHNP Program, Hunter-Bellevue School of Nursing
