Learn to Manage Psychiatric Conditions Confidently in Primary Care and Outpatient Practice
High-yield audio learning + ready-to-use PDF tools.
Have you ever felt unprepared for the amount of mental health care you’re expected to provide in outpatient practice?
You’re not alone. Primary care clinicians and other non-psychiatrists provide the majority of mental health care worldwide—yet many feel frustrated by how little practical guidance they’ve received in managing these complex issues. Most resources out there are built for psychiatrists, not busy frontline providers working in real-world primary care and community settings. If you’re committed to supporting your patients’ mental health but want clearer, more confident frameworks to guide your decisions, Collaborative Psychiatry is here to help.
Designed for primary care providers, physician associates, nurse practitioners, and psychiatric NPs practicing in outpatient and integrated care settings.

How Collaborative Psychiatry helps
Collaborative Psychiatry, founded by Daniel Suter, MD, was created to make managing mental health in primary care and outpatient practice feel clearer, more grounded, and more rewarding. Our content is built from real-world experience in primary care and integrated psychiatry—not from textbooks, guidelines or AI—so every concept is immediately practical.
- Audio learning: Short QuickTakes (15–20 min) for focused clinical insights, and full Audio Courses (1–2 hours) with CME for deeper mastery.
- Practical tools: Quick-reference PDFs, flowcharts, and patient handouts that translate learning directly into patient care.
- Built for busy clinicians: Stream episodes and courses in your podcast app—between visits, on your commute, or during charting time.
Every topic is concise, evidence-informed, and designed for the realities of primary care and outpatient mental health—so you can learn today and apply it tomorrow.
