I have a special interest in women’s mental health, including pregnancy and postpartum support.
My goal is simple: help you feel better in a way that fits your life.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and comfortable being honest about what you’re experiencing. I take time to understand your symptoms, your experiences, and what you want to improve so we can build a treatment plan that fits your needs and goals.

Frequently asked questions


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 Lake Mary
Finding psychiatrists in Lake Mary starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and support medication management. Psychiatric nurse practitioners may also prescribe and manage medication, depending on their license. Therapists provide talk therapy and can be a strong fit for counseling in Lake Mary, while psychiatrists often support concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and OCD. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, experience, and approach match what you want support with.
Lake Mary is a smaller market, so local psychiatry appointments may be more limited than in larger Florida cities. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still giving you access to psychiatrists licensed in Florida. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s bio for details like availability, appointment format, specialties, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Lake Mary can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare profiles, choose virtual or in-person care when available, 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.
