There are three open spots in my community - private practice, cmhc, and va outpt. I would like to work part time.
Taking the salary out of the equation, can I please get some feedback on these places? I feel the cmhc has the most support, but also has the sickest patients. The VA has chronically ill patients that suffer from PTSD, anxiety, etc and their service connectedness may depend on me. In the private practice, the patients may try to steamroll me for benzos, etc and the malpractice issues will be greater.
I would prefer to hear from people who have worked in these environments.
