Care delivered by people who take the work seriously
Mugen is made up of licensed psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who work across inpatient, outpatient, and long-term care settings. Our clinicians bring experience, clinical judgment, and a shared commitment to responsible, evidence-based psychiatry.
A psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, usually written PMHNP, is a registered nurse with graduate training in psychiatry and national board certification. In Illinois they evaluate, diagnose, and prescribe. At Mugen they work alongside our psychiatrists rather than instead of them: complex diagnostic and medication questions get a psychiatrist's eyes, routine evaluation and ongoing medication management can be handled by either, and you are told who you are seeing before every visit. Our nurse practitioners are in network on the same plans the practice accepts, and the same standard of care applies at every visit.
