State Insights
Texas at a Glance
Outpatient PMHNP roles in Texas span community mental health centers, group practices, and integrated primary-care settings. Caseloads typically run 12–18 patients per day with documentation time built in. Texas grants restricted practice authority requiring physician supervision, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 100) directly shapes PMHNP compensation expectations. 3 of the state's top metros carry federal Mental Health Professional Shortage Area designation, so positions in those areas typically qualify for NHSC Loan Repayment. The current 6 active postings reflect a smaller pool of openings for psychiatric nurse practitioners across Texas.
Texas requires PMHNPs to have a prescriptive authority agreement with a supervising physician.
