Hi, I’m Iris, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, mood changes, attention difficulties, or stress that’s making daily life harder than it should be.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on the whole person. I believe mental health care should go beyond simply treating symptoms. Together, we’ll explore the factors that may be affecting how you feel—from life stressors and sleep to hormonal changes and metabolic health—and create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.
In addition to psychiatric medication management, I also incorporate hormone-informed mental health care and medical weight management, recognizing how closely emotional well-being, hormones, and physical health are connected.
My goal is for you to feel heard, supported, and empowered with a clear path forward.
You don’t have to navigate this alone—support is here when you’re ready.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not like yourself, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it on your own. Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, life transitions, or emotional burnout, therapy can help you regain clarity and control. Together, we’ll focus on understanding your full experience—not just symptoms—so you can move toward lasting, meaningful change and feel more grounded in your daily life.
Hello, I'm Rejith Kumaran, APRN, PMHNP-BC, MSN, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care for adolescents and adults. I treat ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, OCD, Bipolar disorder, and other psychiatric conditions through personalized medication management and supportive therapy. I prescribe Stimulant/Non-Stimulant medications for appropriately diagnosed ADHD when clinically indicated. My practice focuses on general outpatient psychiatry, and I generally do not provide ongoing management of chronic benzodiazepines, opioid pain medications, methadone, buprenorphine (Suboxone), or other medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder. My goal is to deliver safe, collaborative, patient-centered care that supports lasting mental wellness.
I graduated from The Ohio State University with my DNP in 2020 focusing on efficient pathways to implement depression screening post-stroke to identify mental health needs. After working a couple years as a nurse practitioner within neurosurgery, I transitioned from Ohio to Florida and pursued my PMHNP certification from Florida State University. Over the past 5 years I have been treating psychiatric needs in LTC around Florida. I am currently working to expand into independent practice and work personally with individuals creating a therapeutic relationship and enhancing their mental health.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Gulf Breeze, FL
Finding psychiatrists in Gulf Breeze starts with knowing what kind of care you want to book. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and support medication management. Therapists provide talk therapy and do not prescribe medication. People often look for psychiatry support for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, training, and care approach match what you want help with.
In a smaller market like Gulf Breeze, local psychiatry appointments may be more limited, so virtual care can expand your options across nearby areas. You may also compare in-person availability, appointment times, whether a psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also provide therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each psychiatrist’s style, focus areas, and what to expect from care.
Psychiatric care in Gulf Breeze can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who match your preferences, are accepting new patients, and work with your insurance plan. You can review estimated costs, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
