Welcome to Harbor Hope Psych Care. I have taken care of clients for over 25 years. I am a dual board-certified Nurse Practitioner in family and psychiatry. I am dedicated to helping individuals improve their mental health and overall well-being. With a strong foundation in both psychiatry and family practice, I bring a perspective to care recognizing that mind and body are deeply connected. I have experience in adolescent psychiatry. I provide medication management and brief psychotherapy.
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.
I’m a psychiatrist who specializes in providing integrative care to foster inner discovery and facilitate tangible change for all of my patients. To me, this means utilizing evidence-based psychotherapeutic methods with medication management as appropriate for achieving personal goals and inner wellness.

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 Tallahassee
Finding psychiatrists in Tallahassee starts with knowing whether you want medication support, therapy, or both. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and skills-based support. Medication management may be part of care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. Some people start with a prescriber, some start with a therapist, and some work with both.
In a mid-size city like Tallahassee, your options may include in-person appointments near central neighborhoods, university areas, or nearby communities, along with virtual psychiatry visits that add more scheduling flexibility. Medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so availability, appointment format, and follow-up cadence matter when choosing a psychiatrist. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading bios can help you understand each clinician’s focus, communication style, and whether they offer free phone consultations before you book.
Psychiatric care in Tallahassee can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage 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 and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who match your needs, are accepting new patients, and take your plan. You can compare profiles, see estimated costs after entering your insurance details, 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.
