Ask a practice owner
anything.
A live Zoom community where healthcare professionals get direct answers from an experienced PMHNP practice owner — every month, in real time.
$300 covers enrollment and your first session. Additional sessions are $100 each, purchased separately. No automatic recurring charges.
The Problem
Running a private practice
means answering questions
no school prepared you for.
-
Operations without a blueprint
Scheduling, intake, documentation, staffing — each decision feels isolated because no one taught the business side in clinical training.
-
Pricing and insurance uncertainty
Self-pay rates, panel decisions, fee schedules, billing infrastructure — the financial model of a practice is rarely obvious from the outside.
-
Technology choices that compound
EHR selection, telehealth platforms, intake tools, automation — wrong choices early are expensive and slow to unwind.
-
Decisions made alone
Generic business advice doesn't account for healthcare regulations, clinical boundaries, or the pace of a solo or small-group practice.
Business Q&A from someone who has already solved these problems.
Ask a Practice Owner is a monthly live session on Zoom where healthcare professionals bring their real practice questions and get direct answers from Nefretiri Abat JD PMHNP-BC — Owner, Exxceed Wellness, Inc.
Not a course. Not a coaching program. Not a forum where your question might get answered next week. One hour, live, monthly — open-floor Q&A with an active practice owner.
Sessions are framed as business Q&A. Every attendee benefits from the questions peers bring, even the ones they didn't know to ask.
What Members Bring
The questions that matter most
are the ones you're already carrying.
Below are example topics that come up in practice ownership discussions. Sessions are open-floor — bring whatever is on your mind.
"How did you decide what to charge for a self-pay session when you first opened?"
Pricing"What do you wish you had done differently with your EHR in the first year?"
Technology"How do you handle scheduling when you're at capacity but still getting new referrals?"
Operations"At what point did you bring on your first staff member, and how did you know it was time?"
Staffing"What does your intake process look like from first contact to first appointment?"
Operations"How do you think about adding telehealth versus in-person sessions to the schedule?"
Technology"What's your approach to setting boundaries around after-hours communication with patients?"
Practice Design"How did you structure your business entity when you started, and would you do it the same way now?"
Business SetupHow It Works
Simple by design.
No pre-screening. No topic restrictions. Show up on Zoom, ask your question, and leave with a clear direction from someone who has already navigated it.

Who This Is For
Built for clinicians
who are also building a business.
This program is right for you if any of these apply.
Planning your first practice
You're preparing to open and want a clear picture of what decisions are coming — before you make expensive mistakes.
Growing past a plateau
You're open and seeing patients, but growth feels stuck. You want to expand caseload, streamline operations, or improve the financial model.
Navigating a hard decision
A specific question — pricing, staffing, technology, structure — needs a direct answer from someone with actual experience, not a generic framework.
Your Host
An active practice owner
in the room with you.
Nefretiri Abat is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and the owner of Exxceed Wellness, Inc. She built her private practice and leads Ask a Practice Owner as an open, honest business Q&A — not a polished talk or a scripted curriculum.
Every session is live Q&A. She answers the questions members actually bring, drawing on her direct experience running a PMHNP private practice — operations, scheduling, technology, staffing, pricing, and the decisions that don't come with a clear right answer.
Sessions are framed as business Q&A. Nothing shared in this program constitutes clinical supervision, legal advice, or financial advice.
