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.

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 Tarpon Springs, FL
Finding the right psychiatrist in Tarpon Springs starts with understanding the kind of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work alongside a prescriber. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, clinical background, and approach to care before booking.
Tarpon Springs 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 letting you choose a psychiatrist licensed in Florida. As you compare psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they structure follow-up visits. Medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Reading bios can help you understand communication style, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Psychiatric care in Tarpon Springs can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who take your plan, are accepting new patients, and offer clear cost estimates before you book, so you can compare options, review 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.
