Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner PMHNP

Lorenz Clinic
US - Minnesota - Wayzata
June 23, 2024

Job Type

Full-time

Description

Note: A doctoral degree such as a DNP or Ph.D. is required for this role.

The Clinic

Lorenz doesn't just treat symptoms, the clinic leverages interdisciplinary treatment teams to treat the second-order problems that hold symptoms in place. Few mental health clinics offer psychiatric providers the opportunity to work in an applied, outpatient clinic setting alongside colleagues from other disciplines.

Practicing at Lorenz Clinic is marked by a high degree of professionalism, our superordinate core value. A sense of social obligation pervades our work, which drives our focus on delivering quality services. The clinic engages in Reflective Practice, which ensures our workplace is conducive to the work itself.

Interprofessional training is the keystone of our system. At any given time, about 20% of the clinicians at Lorenz are involved in training in one way or another. The training program is one of the most selective in Minnesota, with placements ranging from master's practicum to specialty postdoctoral psychology fellowship and everything in between. Simply put, training allows us to work on the field, not just in it. This enlivens the practice at all levels and adds dimension and meaning to our work.

Rather than crowing about the latest burnout-focused gimmicks, Lorenz Clinic has adopted an evidence-based clinician wellness roadmap aimed at ensuring autonomy, choice, a reasonable workload, social connectivity, fairness, and actualization of our core values (and yes, our core values are clinically relevant).

The Department

Lorenz's psychiatry team was founded on the values of the field of advanced practice nursing. We combine an ethos of whole person care and work to ease suffering while collaborating across disciplines to solve the problems that hold symptoms in place. Working alongside psychologists, with access to testing and higher levels of care, PMHNPs treat clients who are being held by a clinic system and treatment team.

Lorenz Psychiatry sees the spectrum of mental health issues across all walks of life. Providers aren't pigeon-holed working with high acuity cases in isolation. The practice enjoys deep, special relationships with referring PCPs that have grown to trust the department to deliver a high level of collaboration and specialized consultation.

The department is an affiliate of the University of Minnesota School of Nursing, which allows us to have a hand in training the next generation of PMHNPs for the betterment of the profession itself- for society's benefit.

The Role

This position entails the provision of outpatient psychiatric evaluation and treatment-either medication management or psychotherapy, depending on provider competence. Lorenz maintains a very favorable support staff ratio (typically
