Care Team Support and Education

If you work in health care, education, social services, faith leadership, or community support, you’re often the first to notice when someone is struggling. At The Ranch Tennessee, we believe strong recovery outcomes depend on informed, connected care teams.

Promises Behavioral Health University (PBHU)

Through our partnership with Promises Behavioral Health University (PBHU), we offer free, online continuing education workshops led by experienced clinicians. These sessions are designed to support professionals serving rural and regional communities, with practical tools that can be applied in real-world settings—along with CE credit at no cost.

What our workshops offer

Each workshop is designed to be clear, focused, and useful. Sessions emphasize skills and knowledge that translate directly into day-to-day work.

Topics commonly include:

  • Recognizing signs of substance use and mental health concerns
  • Applying trauma-informed principles across care settings
  • Strengthening communication through motivational interviewing
  • Supporting continuity of care across levels of service

Workshops are structured to respect your time while providing depth where it matters.

Learning that supports long-term recovery

Education plays a role in recovery far beyond one setting. Our workshops are designed to help professionals:

Support individuals and families through early recovery and transition periods

Strengthen referral relationships that align with long-term care planning

Build confidence when navigating complex behavioral health needs

Participants leave with tools they can use immediately, whether they’re supporting someone in crisis or guiding long-term planning.

Why accessible CE training matters

Substance use and mental health challenges affect people across every community, including rural and underserved areas. Accessible education helps close gaps in care.

Our CE workshops aim to:

  • Share evidence-based strategies grounded in clinical practice
  • Support licensure and renewal requirements without added cost
  • Build shared language and understanding across care teams

Sessions are led by experienced Promises Behavioral Health clinicians and educators and are open to licensed providers as well as professionals in support and community-based roles.

Who these trainings are for

These workshops are intended for professionals who work closely with people navigating substance use and mental health challenges, including:

  • Therapists, psychologists, and licensed counselors
  • Nurses, physicians, and allied health professionals
  • Social workers and case managers
  • School-based mental health staff
  • Clergy, community leaders, and outreach professionals

If your role involves supporting others through difficult moments, these sessions are designed with your work in mind.

Brian Fuller, MD

Medical Director

Dr. Fuller is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. He completed medical school at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and residency at Vanderbilt University. Additionally, he has completed the Nashville Advance Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program, a two-year intensive program to better integrate traditional psychotherapy into his psychiatric practice. Dr. Fuller began his post-residency career in psychiatry running a psychotherapy-oriented private practice. Looking to help more people than he could working alone yet still provide treatment that emphasizes the importance and value of talk therapy, he joined The Ranch in 2017.

Dr. Fuller is passionate about helping people who have survived trauma and/or are struggling with addiction and strongly believes that the life we all deserve is within reach, no matter the adversity that one must overcome. He views medications as tools rather than solutions and his prescribing philosophy is to use the lowest dose necessary of non-addictive medications to help aid the process of recovery.
