Dustin "the Dean of Zen" Dean, PMHNP-BC

Dustin Dean is a nationally certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), transformational coach, and founder of the MindMaxED Institute—a mental wellness and brain fitness platform built for high-achieving professionals, educators, and individuals seeking real, lasting change.

 

With over 20 years of experience as a prescriber, psychotherapist, and professor, Dustin is known for delivering a coaching experience that’s as clinical as it is compassionate. Nicknamed “The Dean of Zen” by clients, he helps people do more than just cope—he helps them thrive rather than just survive.

 

At the core of his method is Brain Fitness: a science-backed system that trains the mind to process life through power and potential rather than pain and past. Whether in 1:1 coaching sessions or cohort-based group experiences, Dustin uses this approach to help clients break through mental barriers, build resilience, and unlock their next level—personally, professionally, and emotionally.

 

Through the MindMaxED Institute, Dustin is redefining what mental wellness looks like—less about diagnosis, and more about momentum. Clients walk away with clarity, tools, and the confidence to live boldly and think with purpose.

"As a medical doctor, I've been familiar with traditional mental health approaches, but Dustin Dean’s brain-fitness approach is truly unique. He provided constant support, offering skills and encouragement whenever I struggled. This client-focused, solution-based practice has changed my life and probably saved it. For the first time, I feel genuinely heard and understood, which has led to tangible mental wellness results. MindMaxED institute is truly a game-changer."
