What Sets NAMHP Continuing Education Apart?
Empowering Providers as Business Owners
NAMHP courses go beyond clinical skills to equip mental health professionals with the tools to build sustainable, ethically sound practices.
Integrating Advocacy into Professional Development
Our workshops help providers become effective policy advocates, teaching how to communicate with legislators, advocate for fair reimbursement, and influence policies that shape the future of mental health care.
Designed for Independent and Small Practice Providers
NAMHP understands the unique challenges faced by private practice owners, small group practices, and independent contractors. Our educational offerings address those specific needs, ensuring content is relevant and immediately useful.
Addressing Systemic Barriers Head-On
We directly tackle the systemic issues providers face, including low reimbursement rates, excessive administrative burdens, and the growing influence of corporate and venture capital-driven care models that threaten clinician autonomy and quality of care.
A Comprehensive Approach to Continuing Education
Our programs blend clinical best practices with ethical considerations, business acumen, and advocacy training, ensuring providers are well-rounded professionals prepared to lead their practices and advocate for change.
Developed by Providers, for Providers
All NAMHP educational content is created and delivered by practicing clinicians who understand the evolving realities of the behavioral health landscape, ensuring courses are practical, relevant, and impactful.
