What are the fundamental principles of the Fellowships?

Psychiatry Redefined Fellowships are comprehensive programs built on key pillars: clinical mastery, community support, practice coordination, and comprehensive care.

We incorporate the latest functional medicine with practical, precision medicine strategies to expand how you provide psychiatric care, along with the guidance and support to elevate your practice and deliver lasting wellness to your patients.

  • Clinical: We provide scientific, evidence-based curriculum developed by international experts. To learn more about our specific clinical focus areas, please see the questions below.
  • Community: We provide direct, hands-on faculty guidance and peer support including private community and discussion forums, live group and testing supervisions, and referrals.
  • Coordination: We provide mentorship on practice management strategies, and guidance on EHR, marketing and legal to help you develop a thriving practice.
  • Comprehensive Care: We provide step-by-step guidance for developing whole-person treatment plans and providing collaborative client care.

What are the clinical focus areas that will be covered in the Fellowship?

We provide two comprehensive Fellowship programs, each with specific clinical focus areas:

Our General Fellowship in Functional & Integrative Psychiatry is built around nine essential, science-backed areas of clinical focus that provide the organizational structure for our curriculum, inform our approach to care, and serve as the overarching theme of integrative and functional medicine for psychiatry.

  • Nutritional & Metabolic Psychiatry: Our brain and body cannot function properly without the appropriate nutrients. Nutritional deficiencies, including vitamin D, B12, folate, iron, zinc, magnesium, omega-3 fats and others can all play a detrimental role in brain function. Likewise, many mental health disorders can be impacted by imbalances in the body’s metabolism, as a result of diet, genetics, and stress. By properly assessing and treating nutritional imbalances and metabolic factors (like insulin resistance and inflammation), symptoms of mental health conditions often improve or resolve. Interventions may include ketogenic diets/low-carb, lifestyle changes, supplementation, and medication.
  • Infections: Some infections, such as Lyme disease, streptococcus and clostridium can cause or contribute to mental health problems such as obsessive compulsive disorder, eating disorders, anxiety and depression. While often overlooked, knowing how to assess for and treat chronic infections can be a critical factor in helping patients recover from mental illness.
  • Genetics: Genetics play a role in the development of many mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and schizophrenia. Understanding how to assess genetic markers and modify treatment appropriately is a fundamental component of both Functional and Personalized Medicine.
  • Environmental Medicine: Environmental factors such as exposure to mold and toxins, like heavy metals, plastics and pesticides, among numerous others, can contribute to the development of health problems, including mental health conditions. Toxic compounds are known to have detrimental effects on the brain and nervous system, from causing inflammation to disrupting neurotransmitter function. Identifying and treating toxicities can also play a role in a patient’s recovery from mental illness.
  • Functional Medicine Labs & Testing: The core of Functional Psychiatry is objective laboratory testing that can be used to identify and monitor the underlying causes and factors that contribute to mental health. For example, blood tests can be used to check for nutritional deficiencies, endocrine dysregulation, microbiome disruptions, genetic markers, toxicities, infections and inflammation, all of which can contribute to mental illness. Lab testing can help in both identifying the causes and monitoring a patient’s progress during treatment.
  • Psychiatric Medications & Side Effects: Medication treatments for mental health conditions, while not typically a cure, still have their place. Using medications appropriately when needed can help patients in their recovery. In addition, through the proper application of Functional Medicine, it is often possible to reduce or eliminate common medication side effects, improving patient compliance.
  • Hormones: Hormones, including the sex hormones, thyroid hormones and insulin, can all play a role in the development of mental health disorders. Measuring and treating hormone dysregulation can be another powerful tool on the path to recovery from mental illness.
  • Psychedelics: Psychedelics have been shown to be effective in the treatment of some mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. While not a panacea, psychedelics can help to alter the brain’s chemistry and promote neuroplasticity, which is the brain’s ability to change and adapt.
  • Gastrointestinal Microbiome: The gastrointestinal microbiome plays a significant role in both physical and mental health. Through a number of different mechanisms, the brain influences the gut and vice versa. By assessing for and addressing microbiome disturbances, many patients notice improvements in both physical and mental health symptoms.

The Pediatric Functional & Integrative Psychiatry Fellowship is built on nine topics essential to comprehensive pediatric care. These areas of clinical focus provide the structure for program curriculum, and address the gaps in traditional psychiatry and pediatric medicine. 

  • ADHD & Disruptive Behavior Disorders: Integrative psychiatry offers breakthrough and holistic strategies to optimize brain function, emotional regulation, and behavior. Discover evidence-based nutrition, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle interventions that go beyond conventional treatments for lasting results.
  • Nutritional Psychiatry & Gut Microbiome Unlock the power of the gut-brain connection, and explore how targeted nutrition, pre and probiotics, and lifestyle interventions can transform mental health. By identifying and correcting critical nutritional deficits and microbiome disruptions, and reducing inflammation, providers can improve mental health outcomes.
  • Neurodiversity: Discover integrative, science-backed strategies to support children with ADHD, autism, and other neurodevelopmental differences. Learn how personalized nutrition, targeted supplementation, and mind-body therapies can enhance cognitive function, emotional well-being, and overall resilience.
  • Genetic Testing: Gain the confidence and the tools to personalize treatment plans based on a child’s unique genetic profile. Leverage cutting-edge genetic insights and testing to optimize medication choices, minimize side effects, and enhance therapeutic outcomes for pediatric patients.
  • Functional Medicine Testing: Advanced laboratory testing methods can be invaluable for identifying underlying biochemical, nutritional, and metabolic factors contributing to mental health conditions. Our Fellowship provides a practical foundation for Functional Medicine testing for patient care.
  • Anxiety & Mood Disorders: Combines advanced strategies, including functional medicine testing, to learn how personalized nutrition, targeted supplements, mind-body practices, and lab assessments can help address the root causes of anxiety and mood disorders, promoting emotional stability and healthier coping mechanisms. Gain practical tools to create holistic, individualized treatment plans that enhance long-term mental health outcomes in young patients.
  • Mold, Lyme & PANS/PANDAS: This topic addresses infections, toxins and more by exploring approaches to manage complex conditions. Learn how targeted detoxification, nutritional support, immune modulation, and environmental interventions can restore balance and improve mental and physical health in children affected by these disorders and exposures.
  • Suicide Prevention: Our Fellowship provides a comprehensive approach to identifying and addressing risk factors such as inflammation, nutritional deficiencies, gut-brain imbalances, and chronic stress and strengthening resilience in at-risk youth. Learn how nutrition, lifestyle interventions, mind-body techniques, and targeted supplementation can support mental well-being and suicide prevention beyond conventional methods.
  • Eating Disorders: Learn how to support whole-person care and restore healthy relationships with food and body with root-cause healing and nutritional therapy. Learn evidence-based strategies, including gut-brain support, targeted supplementation, and behavioral interventions, to promote long-term recovery in children and adolescents.

How long does each Fellowship run?

Each Fellowship is a 12-month program, and fellows are granted 14 months of access to all Psychiatry Redefined curriculum from program start date—including courses, special lectures, webinars, conference presentations, and resources—plus access to the private Community for invaluable and ongoing fellow-faculty-peer discussion and networking.

Fellows of either Fellowship program may proceed through curriculum at their own pace during their term of study, but we encourage Fellows to follow the curriculum schedule outlined in the syllabus to keep pace with group and testing sessions that are held monthly.

  • General Fellowship: Two cohorts generally run simultaneously each year, with one beginning in January (Winter session) and one beginning in July (Summer session).
  • Pediatric Fellowship: One cohort generally runs per year beginning in August (Summer session).

What is the time commitment? Can I complete this while working full time?

The Fellowships are built for busy professionals who are currently engaged in full-time work, school and/or practice. The average time commitment is 6-9 hours per month. Each Fellowship is self-paced; the more time put in, the more you learn.

Each month we suggest taking the monthly courses listed in the syllabus and completing the recommended readings, along with the related talks, webinars and special lectures listed. We also highly encourage all Fellows to attend group and special topic sessions when they are held live each month (multiple sessions); all group sessions are recorded for later viewing.

There is a minimum of four (4) hours per month of faculty contact: 3 hours of group and/or special topic sessions, 1 hour of office hours, and additional bonus lectures organized around special topics and/or special faculty.

Can I work through the program at my own pace?

The Psychiatry Redefined Fellowships blend online self-paced, self-directed study with live, guided sessions led by Dr. James Greenblatt and faculty. You can watch online course lectures and review course materials immediately upon enrollment, and at your own pace over your one-year period of study.

Group and special topic sessions (conducted via Zoom with faculty and mentors) follow a monthly schedule, with each month dedicated to a different course and topic. These topics differ between the General Fellowship and Pediatric Fellowship each year. We recommend that Fellows join as many sessions (similar to clinical rounds) as they can, so they get the most out of the real-time Q&A with Dr. Greenblatt and faculty.

That said, attendance at all live sessions is not a requirement. If you are unable to join a live session you can access each session recording later via your Learning Management System (LMS) student dashboard.

Are you able to incorporate functional medicine into your practice easily and are patients receptive?

Many clinicians integrate functional and integrative medicine approaches slowly into their patient’s treatment, as they learn and on an ongoing basis. It is a learning curve. There is a team of collaborative and supportive peers always willing to help as you implement what you learn into practice, and willing to discuss treatment plans for real patient cases. Most clinicians report that even small changes have a huge impact on their patients. Thus, we also hear that most patients are receptive and welcoming of the direction and more importantly, they finally feel relief.

Do I have to listen to lectures in a specific order?

While not a requirement, it is recommended that Fellows proceed through core Fellowship courses in the order that corresponds to the monthly syllabus and schedules for their specific cohort. Each General Fellowship and Pediatric Fellowship cohort follows a slightly different schedule, so please refer to your syllabus for your cohort’s monthly curriculum.

Are there any required components of the program?

General Fellowship: All Core Curriculum (required courses) is marked as such in your syllabus. There are typically 1-3 courses required for each topic/month.

Pediatric Fellowship: All courses outlined in the Pediatric Fellowship Syllabus are required in order to obtain certification.

Completion of all courses and curriculum is required in order to claim eligibility to receive a program completion certificate (optional) inclusion in the PR Provider Directory.

  • Fulfillment of these completion requirements may be claimed after the first year of study.
  • Completing all courses of the Core Curriculum and claiming eligibility for Provider Certification is entirely optional.
  • The Pediatric Fellowship also requires the passing of a final exam in order to obtain certification.

To learn more about this process, please review the questions listed under our Program Completion/Certification FAQs section below.

What are the optional components of the program?

The following components of the Fellowship programs are optional adjuncts to learning available to all program fellows.

While not required to claim program completion or receive certification, they represent valuable opportunities to expand and enhance knowledge. Thus, we strongly encourage all Fellows to watch and/or participate in the following:

  • Additional Courses: In addition to the courses comprising the Core Curriculum, Fellows enjoy unlimited access to the Supplemental Courses available in the online course library. This includes any new course added to the course library during their term of enrollment.
  • Past and upcoming webinars, special lectures, educational conference recordings (unless otherwise outlined as Core Curriculum)
  • Past Group Session recordings
  • 2-year membership in the Community Forum: The private Community Forum provides Fellows with a robust platform wherein they may connect with peers from around the world, engage in discussions, ask questions of mentors and PR Faculty, and present cases. Many Fellows convey that the perspectives and knowledge they have gained through the participation in the Community represents an invaluable component of their overall Fellowship learning experience.
  • Complimentary registration to any online Psychiatry Redefined event (conferences, symposiums, seminars): Dedicated to the advancement of functional psychiatry, Psychiatry Redefined regularly hosts scientific conferences involving experts from various fields. Fellows are eligible for complimentary registration to any PR event during their first year of study.

Do I need to pass tests along the way?

The Fellowship programs do not require passing of tests each month.

You may need to complete and pass tests if you wish to obtain CME credits/certification for accredited courses. Only accredited courses have tests. If you do not plan to report any CME credits, then testing is not required for any component of the Fellowship. If you wish to claim CME credits, please review the information provided in the CME section of these FAQs below.

Note: The General Fellowship does not require the completion or passing of any final exam in order to obtain provider certification. However, the Pediatric Fellowship does feature a required final curriculum exam that must be passed in order to obtain provider certification.

How do I communicate with other Fellows in the program?

All enrolled Fellows will be registered in the PR Fellowship Community, a private member forum where you may participate in ongoing group discussions and network with your peers. The Community establishes a forum through which Fellows can present cases, ask questions, and engage in peer- and faculty-led discussions to foster growth and education. Participation in Community discussions, while not mandatory, is strongly recommended, as it allows for dynamic engagement with like-minded peers, faculty, and our founder, James Greenblatt, MD.

PLEASE NOTE: Fellows who participate in forum discussions via the Community are solely responsible for adhering to policies for Patient Privacy and Confidentiality in accordance with all relevant institutional, state, and federal laws, along with our Fellowship Terms & Conditions.

Will I be able to present and discuss questions from real clinical cases?

Yes! The Fellowship programs are not only educational experiences, but collaborative ones. Learning how to apply your knowledge in real-life clinical contexts and improve patient outcomes is part of our guiding principles. Fellows are encouraged to present clinical cases for discussion, to stimulate group discourse and glean valuable insights from Dr. Greenblatt.

  • Private Community/Listserv: We encourage Fellows to present clinical cases for group review, weigh-in on questions and topics, and ask specific questions about clinical cases via their Fellows Community. Dr. Greenblatt, faculty and mentors maintain active participation in this forum, and will comment on cases presented therein.
  • Group Sessions: These live group sessions (supervisions/clinical discussions) provide another opportunity to present clinical cases and ask questions. Q&A is built into the timetable for every live group session, and the Faculty member leading the session (Dr. Greenblatt) will answer questions pertaining to the topic at hand. Learn more about Group Sessions.
  • Submitting Questions: Questions may be submitted directly to faculty moderating the Group Session via the Zoom tool. Alternatively, you may submit questions and/or cases ahead of time to Heather Getz at hgetz@psychiatryredefined.org, who will provide them to the relevant faculty leading the upcoming live session Q&A.
    • Fellows who choose to submit patient data, test results, testing forms, and other documents should take care to redact or remove any and all potentially identifying information BEFORE submitting. Psychiatry Redefined is not responsible for the redaction of potentially identifying patient information from cases submitted by Fellows.

PLEASE NOTE: All Fellows who participate in forum discussions via the Community are solely responsible for adhering to policies for Patient Privacy & Confidentiality in accordance with all relevant institutional, state, and federal laws, along with our Fellowship Terms & Conditions.

I recently enrolled and I'm overwhelmed with all this new information; are there resources available to help me?

We appreciate that immersion into a novel program of study can occasionally be overwhelming, and that Fellows who may not have prior experience in functional medicine theory or application may initially feel a bit inundated.

Rest assured that there are multiple resources at your disposal to help ease you into your program of study:

  • All newly enrolled Fellows are encouraged to attend a Fellowship Orientation/Meet & Greet sessions. These optional live webinars are held leading up to and at the beginning of each Fellowship program, and intended to serve as an introductory guide to the program. Hosted by Dr. Greenblatt and/or other faculty members, these sessions will review key components of the Fellowships, and provide ample time for open-forum Q&A. Details on these Zoom meetings will be provided upon enrollment and/or emailed directly to fellows when scheduled and available.
  • Discuss your concerns and questions with faculty during provided faculty office hours.
  • Any questions you have may be posted for peer feedback and discussion in the private Fellows Community.
  • You may always email questions to fellowship@psychiatryredefined.org.

Fellowship Sessions & Mentoring

What are Fellowship sessions?

Sessions (supervisions or clinical rounds) are live Zoom calls with faculty to review curriculum and readings, discuss real patient cases, treatment plans, lab testing and more. These are an invaluable opportunity to gain clinical guidance from and interact with our faculty each month. Sessions typically begin with a brief presentation led by Dr. Greenblatt and/or faculty to review monthly topics, followed by robust case discussion and an open Q&A with all fellows.

The Fellowship programs provide multiple faculty-led sessions each month, including both group sessions to cover Core Curriculum, and special sessions with faculty on targeted topics and testing methodologies.

Sessions are not required, but we consider them essential to the Fellowship trainings: our fellows consistently say that the live sessions are the most valuable portion of their training. Sessions generally last about 1 hour, and are held live via Zoom. All live sessions are recorded so you can view them later in your student account in the LMS (learning management system).

How do I join the the live group sessions?

Group sessions are held mid-week at 8:00 pm EST (unless otherwise noted). Upon enrollment, you’ll be find a syllabus and schedule in our learning management system (the LMS) that details the full session schedule, alongside Zoom links, special presentations, and more.

Before each live session, we request that you click the respective Zoom link to register. Zoom details and links will be emailed to you so you can join the session webinar in real-time. In the event that faculty needs to reschedule a session (life happens!), fellows will be emailed immediately with the update and new date/time.

When do the live sessions begin?

Group and special topic supervisions begin during the first month of each Fellowship program and respective cohort; they mark the official beginning of each Fellowship cohort.

  • General Fellowship: Live sessions are held twice a month, generally on Wednesdays at 5pm PST/8pm ET. Sessions for each cohort begin in mid-January (Winter cohort), and sessions begin mid-July (Summer cohort).
  • Pediatric Fellowship: Live sessions are held twice a month, generally on Mondays at 5pm PST/8pm ET. Sessions for the Summer cohort begin in August.

The full monthly schedule can be found in the syllabus provided in our learning management system (the LMS). Additionally, fellows will receive regular correspondence from the Fellowship Director about upcoming sessions. Dates and times, along with Zoom links, instructions and access information, can all be found within the LMS system in the course titled, “Syllabus.”

For more information on enrollment and activation of your account, please see the Enrollment & Eligibility FAQ section below.

What are the small group mentoring sessions?

The small group mentoring sessions are dedicated support groups led by community leaders and former fellows for the General Fellowship program only. Each group is broken out by discipline and led by a specific mentor in said discipline (nursing, naturopathy, psychiatry, etc). These group sessions provide fellows with a unique opportunity to connect with similar, discipline-specific peers, and find guidance and resources related to your background and practice.

Further details related to small groups, such as group leaders, schedules for mentoring sessions (Zoom meet-ups), and instructions for joining groups, will be released closer to each cohort starting date.

What is the difference between sessions and office hours?

Group sessions (supervisions or clinical rounds) are offered twice a month with Dr. Greenblatt and faculty to review the monthly content outlined in the syllabus for each Fellowship program. Special topic sessions are offered 1-2 times a month to cover specific clinical topics and functional protocols. Sessions typically begin with a brief presentation by Dr. Greenblatt and/or faculty, followed by robust case discussion and an open Q&A with all fellows. These sessions last about one hour, and are held live via Zoom. All sessions are recorded so you can view them later in your student account.

Office hours are set up to provide more in-depth case discussion, testing guidance and on-demand guidance, and answer fellow questions on a 1:1 basis. Office hours feature Dr. Greenblatt along with faculty who have specific expertise that coincides with the monthly syllabus topic.

When are sessions and office hours held each month?

When available, the session schedule for each Fellowship program will be added to the learning management system (the LMS), and can be found within the “Syllabus” course. Here you will find all available session dates, times and links broken out by month. Monthly session schedules are released on a rolling basis as we progress through each program.

  • Live (Group/Testing) Sessions: Live sessions are held twice monthly, and special topic supervisions are held once/twice monthly. All sessions are held live via Zoom and recorded for later viewing; these recordings can be found in each month’s chapter for later viewing.
    • General Fellowship: Sessions are generally held Wednesdays at 5pm PT / 8pm ET, unless otherwise noted.
    • Pediatric Fellowship: Sessions are generally held Mondays at 5pm PT / 8pm ET.
  • Faculty Office Hours: Office hours are provided 2-3 times each month with faculty. These are typically on one Thursday and one Saturday each month at 10am PT / 1pm ET. Office hours are not regularly recorded but will be uploaded to the learning system if/when available.
  • Special Lectures: A handful of special lectures just for Fellows are available in the learning system. Upcoming special presentations will added to the schedule and shared with fellows as they become available throughout the year.

Is participation in sessions mandatory? What if I cannot attend a live session?

We highly recommend that Fellows join as many group and special topic sessions (live clinical discussions conducted via Zoom) as they can, so that they get the most out of the real-time Q&A with Dr. Greenblatt and faculty. However, attendance at session is not a requirement, and if you are unable to join a given session you will be able to access the recording later via within your student account in our learning dashboard (LMS).

Please note: We work as quickly as possible to upload the latest session recordings in a timely manner. Recordings generally require 4-6 business days of post-production before made available in your syllabus. We thank you for your patience!

I see "Recommended Readings" listed on the Syllabus; do I have to read these ahead of each session?

As many of our Fellows enjoy delving deeper into various topics, we provide academic and professional articles to Fellows as optional adjuncts to learning. These are available in the Learning Management System (LMS) within your specific Fellowship cohort Syllabus.

These articles have been carefully selected such that they correspond with each month’s Core Curriculum course or session topic, and invite a deeper understanding of the some of the concepts that will be reviewed each month and/or presented during sessions.

These Recommended Readings, however, are not required for completion of the Fellowship programs, nor are they required for session attendance and participation.

Will I be able to present and discuss questions from real clinical cases?

Yes! Our Fellowship programs are not only educational experiences, but collaborative ones. Learning how to apply your knowledge in real-life clinical contexts and improve patient outcomes is part of our guiding principles. Fellows are encouraged to present clinical cases for discussion, to stimulate group discourse and glean valuable insights from Dr. Greenblatt.

  • Community Forum: We encourage Fellows to present clinical cases for group review, weigh-in on questions and topics, and ask specific questions about clinical cases via the private Fellow Community. Dr. Greenblatt, faculty and mentors maintain active participation, and will comment on cases presented therein.
  • Group Sessions: These live group sessions provide another opportunity to present clinical cases and ask questions. Q&A is built into the timetable for every sessions, and faculty will present briefly, then answer questions pertaining to the topic at hand.
  • Submitting Questions: Questions may be submitted directly to the Faculty member moderating the Group Session via Zoom. Alternatively, you may submit questions and/or cases ahead of time to Heather Getz at hgetz@psychiatryredefined.org, who will provide them to the relevant faculty member leading the upcoming session.

PLEASE NOTE: Fellows who participate in forum discussions via the Community are solely responsible for adhering to policies for Patient Privacy & Confidentiality in accordance with all relevant institutional, state, and federal laws, along with our Fellowship Terms & Conditions.

Do I need a Zoom account to join the sessions?

A Zoom account is not required if you are joining a Zoom webinar meeting as a participant. For more details about the Zoom platform, please visit Zoom.us.

Can I ask questions or submit cases for faculty to discuss during sessions?

Yes, and we encourage Fellows to take advantage of the forum that sessions provide in terms of discussion, questions, and case presentations.

When first reminders are sent out to fellows by the Fellowship Director, they will include an invitation to submit cases and/or questions by email in advance of each session. Questions may be submitted in the body of an email to the Fellowship Director.

For case presentations, patient information and/or test data may be submitted as attachments (text or scanned documents). Please DO NOT submit more than five separate attachments per case. Please read the following FAQ regarding case submission policies.

Please note: There is often a deadline for advance submission of questions or cases to allow our team adequate time to prepare material for the session and faculty. Emailed cases and questions are not accepted beyond this deadline. However, Fellows may still ask questions via the chat function in Zoom.

What do I need to know about submitting cases for live sessions or in the Community forum?

All Fellows are SOLELY responsible for responsible for adhering to policies for Patient Privacy and Confidentiality in accordance with all relevant institutional, state, and federal laws as well as our Fellowship Terms & Conditions.

IMPORTANT: Fellows who choose to submit patient data, test results, testing forms, and other documents should take care to redact or remove any and all potentially identifying information BEFORE submitting. Psychiatry Redefined is not responsible for the redaction of potentially identifying patient information from cases submitted by Fellows.

How do I access recordings of previous sessions?

Live sessions are recorded and uploaded to your Syllabus approximately 3-5 business days after each session.

Fellowship Program Completion & Certification

Will I be certified in Functional Medicine upon completion of a Fellowship?

Yes! When you complete the General Fellowship in Functional Psychiatry and the Pediatric Fellowship in Functional Psychiatry training in full, you can become a Psychiatry Redefined Certified Functional Medicine Provider (PRCFMP) or a Psychiatry Redefined Certified Functional Medicine Pediatric Provider (PRCFMPP), and receive a Certificate of Training Completion – titles provided exclusively by Psychiatry Redefined.

Completing all courses of the Core Curriculum for both Fellowship programs is required to obtain a certified title and certification. The Pediatric Fellowship also requires that you pass a final curriculum exam to obtain certification. Claiming eligibility for a certificate and title is entirely optional. See the questions below for further details. Click here to learn more about certification and see the questions below for further details.

*Education & Certification Disclaimer: Psychiatry Redefined is neither a regulatory nor licensing organization and therefore not sanctioned to certify, license, or otherwise bestow the legal authorization to practice as a psychiatrist, nurse or nurse practitioner (NP), physician’s assistant (PA), psychologist, naturopathic doctor, nutritionist, physician, or other mental health professional. Certification from the Fellowship trainings certifies a candidate’s completion of said Fellowship training ONLY. Our Fellowships ARE NOT intended to replace, override, or conflict with existing board certification or national licensing requirements for health professionals and their requirements for practice in their state of residency and practice. Our Fellowships ARE NOT intended to replace formal clinical education or to provide qualifications for independent clinical practice. Certifications from our Fellowship trainings do not automatically translate into or qualify for clinical practice privileges. Completing our Fellowship trainings does not imply or guarantee the legal right to practice medicine or provide clinical services.

Will I receive a certificate?

Yes! Upon completion of all Core Curriculum (General Fellowship), and/or completion of all core courses outlined in the Pediatric Syllabus (Pediatric Fellowship), you may receive a Certificate of Completion and a certified provider title. The Pediatric Fellowship also requires that fellows pass a final exam in order to obtain certification.

To help you market your valuable knowledge and clinical skills in functional medicine for mental health, we also provide a promotional badge that fellows can use on their communication and promotional materials by fellows. Many fellows find this to be a helpful tool to expand their practice and help patients understand their personalized, whole-person approach to care.

CME Certification: These are also available to those who intend to claim CME credits for their participation in the specific and accredited courses in our Fellowship trainings. These CME certificates are separate certifications that have been approved by the ACCME. Please see the CME section of the FAQs page for more information.

Why is certification in Functional Medicine important?

When you complete a Psychiatry Redefined Fellowship, you will become a certified provider and you may obtain a Certificate of Completion – both exclusively bestowed by Psychiatry Redefined.

These certifications establish yourself as a leader in the field of mental health care, and distinguish you from colleagues. It communicates to colleagues, employers and patients an extensive competency unavailable in any other professional mental health training.

Functional medicine providers for mental illness are in extremely high demand by patients and employers. These certifications clear a path towards a rewarding career in functional medicine. For many alumni, these trainings kick start a thriving private practice in functional and integrative medicine. For alumni associated with larger health care organizations, fellows are now implementing new functional interventions to improve institutional approaches and care strategies.

What are the steps for becoming certified?

After the first year (12 months) of your Fellowship study, you eligible to become a certified provider and receive a Certificate of Completion. Completing all courses and claiming eligibility for a certificate is entirely optional.

  • General Fellowship: Fellows must complete all core (required) courses that comprise the Core Curriculum in the General Fellowship. After the first year of study, fellows who have completed allCore Curriculum courses may request a Completion Review with the Fellowship Director. If the review confirms completion of all required courses, instructions for obtaining your Fellowship Certificate of Completion and obtaining official recognition as a Certified Provider will be provided to you.
  • Pediatric Fellowship: To obtain certification, fellows must complete all core curriculum listed in the Pediatric Syllabus, and pass a final certification exam. After the first year of study, fellows who have both completed all curriculum and passed the Certification Exam may obtain a Fellowship Certificate of Completion and official recognition as a Certified Provider.

What are the required components of the Psychiatry Redefined Fellowships?

General Fellowship: All Core Curriculum (required courses) is marked as such in your syllabus. There are typically 1-3 courses required for each topic/month. Completion of all core courses is required in order to claim eligibility to receive a program completion certificate (optional) inclusion in the PR Provider Directory.

Pediatric Fellowship: All courses outlined in the Pediatric Syllabus are required in order to obtain certification. The Pediatric Fellowship also requires the passing of a final curriculum exam.

Completing all Core Curriculum, passing the final exam, and claiming eligibility for certification is entirely optional. Fellows are not required to pursue Provider Certification for either Fellowship program. Fellows have access to all courses and program material for two years; fulfillment of these completion requirements may be claimed anytime after the first year of study.

What is a Completion Review, and how long will this take?

A Completion Review entails Psychiatry Redefined administration reviewing and confirming fellow online activity within the learning system (LMS). Per Fellowship policy, provider certification is contingent upon the completion of all courses in the Core Curriculum (for the General Fellowship), and the core curriculum and completed final exam (for the Pediatric Fellowship).

  1. To request a Completion Review, please email the Fellowship Director at fellowship@psychiatryredefined.org.

Will Psychiatry Redefined track my total course hours through the duration of my Fellowship?

No. Fellows who wish to track their course, session participation, and/or mentoring hours are responsible for doing so as they progress through said Fellowship program. For helpful reference, the following is a rough estimation of total hours (learning and curriculum, faculty interaction, etc):

  • Over 315 learning hours from courses, webinars, lectures, conference presentations, educational material and readings
  • Approximately 50 hours of combined faculty supervisions and mentoring/office hours

To assist in your progression through the curriculum, the PR Learning Dashboard (LMS) automatically tracks course and module progress, and saves all progress upon each exit of the system.

No. Our Fellowships are designed as integrated educational programs, blending web-based coursework, live sessions and case consultation, and peer forum interactions, to provide Fellows with a comprehensive, progressive learning experience. Each component is intended to build upon previous coursework.  For this reason, we do not allow Fellows to “opt out” of individual courses within the program.

I do not want to claim CME credits. Can I get a discount on CME-approved courses from the Fellowships?

Unfortunately, no. Obtaining CME credit through the Fellowship programs is optional and determined by each participant. It is not required that you claim CME credits for accredited courses.

If you do not want CME credit, you are not required to complete the necessary certification components. If you wish to claim CME credit for each accredited course, you will need to complete a course post-test and evaluation. Instructions for certification are available at the end of each accredited course.

No; pursuing CME credits for accredited courses is entirely optional.

You are not required to report credits to the ACCME. However, credits claimed for each course are tracked and reported to the ACCME annually, so it’s incumbent upon our fellows to report and claim hours accurately.

What entity is the designated CME provider for Psychiatry Redefined?

The designated CME provider for Psychiatry Redefined is: Comprehensive Psychiatric Resources, Inc.

Do I have to pass tests along the way?

If you intend to claim CME credits for any of the accredited courses, you must complete, submit and score a passing grade for said course tests. The minimum passing grade for CME tests is 80%. If you score below this grade on your first attempt, you may revisit the module lecture (with the online course player), then retake the quiz up to three times.

If you do not wish to claim CME credits, then you do not need to take or pass each post-test. While post-test help you obtain certification, they are meant to reinforce knowledge gained in course lectures, and should be viewed as an adjunct to learning.

How do I fulfill CME requirements for each accredited course?

In order to fulfill CME requirements for each accredited course you must:

  • Complete all module post-tests for said course. CME post-test require a passing grade of 80%. You are given three attempts to pass the post-test and there is not time constraint/delay for taking/retaking tests.
  • Complete the Course Evaluation for said course

Once all required components have been completed, instructions will be provided for obtaining your CME Certificate for that course.

How do I view and complete course post-tests and evaluations for CME courses?

Instructions for completing certification and obtaining your certificate are provided at the end of each accredited course. You can also find each CME Certification “course” on your student (LMS) dashboard.

Each CME Certification “course” is a separate component from the educational course itself. These CME Certification courses contain: all accreditation information, the required course post-tests, required course evaluations and/or links, and a form for generating your personalized CME Certificate.

Do I have to complete a Course Evaluation for every accredited course for which I want to claim credit?

Yes, per ACCME policies and requirements, you must complete a course evaluation for every CME-approved course for which you want to claim CME credit.

Do I have to complete all tests and evaluations in one sitting?

No. Just like the individual modules of the online courses, your progress is saved in your student account as you go.

The course post-tests and required evaluations for accredited courses can be completed at your own pace. If you need a break after finishing the first test, for example, you may pause; you may then return to the course player, and you can pick up where you left off.

Do I have to report my credits to the ACCME?

No. Courses approved for CME by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and MedicusCME do not require that you report your obtained credits after course completion and certification.

However, we strongly encourage all Fellows to stay abreast of the latest credit reporting guidelines for each type of credit they are pursuing to remain in compliance with their respective state board.

I previously completed a Psychiatry Redefined course that is now approved for CME credit. Can I claim retroactive credit?

No; CME credits can only be claimed for courses that were completed within our terms of active credit approval. The term of approval for Psychiatry Redefined’s current CME courses began September 1st, 2019.  If you completed any of these courses prior to this date, you cannot claim CME credits.
