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.

This is a telehealth practice. As a personal choice, the use of narcotics or other controlled (DEA) meds are minimal, if any. I've been a psych nurse practitioner for at least 14yrs. I believe in managing conditions with psychiatric and non-psychiatric treatment modalities that are evidence based. The use of the least amount of meds, at lower doses that does the healing of symptoms, is an active process involving the client and based on the reported experiences. Safety is the core of my practice and my job is to help clients understand internal signals and how to prevent another crisis.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Lutz
Finding psychiatrists in Lutz starts with understanding what kind of mental health care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication plans. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and stress. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, experience, and approach match the kind of support you want.
Lutz is a smaller market near the greater Tampa Bay area, so local psychiatrist availability may vary. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still letting you meet with a licensed psychiatrist in Florida. Psychiatric care often follows a different rhythm than therapy: medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than talk therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, while others focus on evaluation and medication management. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s bio for appointment format, availability, clinical focus, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Lutz can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you compare psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse profiles, review specialties, and book directly when you find a psychiatrist who matches your needs and accepts your plan.
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.
