State Insights
Virginia at a Glance
Part-time PMHNP roles in Virginia run 16 to 32 scheduled hours weekly, with prorated benefits at larger health systems and none at smaller practices. The structure is popular for clinicians maintaining a private practice on the side or stepping down from a full caseload. Openings are thin enough here that most clinicians pair one with telehealth coverage. Virginia grants restricted practice authority requiring physician supervision. The 5 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for PMHNPs in Virginia.
Virginia PMHNPs practice and prescribe under a practice agreement with a patient care team physician. After the equivalent of three years of full-time clinical experience, attested by a patient care team physician or a qualifying nurse practitioner, they can be licensed for autonomous practice (Va. Code 54.1-2957, 54.1-2957.01).
