You deserve care that sees all of you, not just your diagnosis. Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not like yourself? I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, life transitions, and more through compassionate medication management paired with supportive therapy.


As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I believe mental health treatment works best when it’s a true partnership. You’re the expert on your life; I bring clinical expertise to help you find clarity, balance, and relief. My sessions are warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. You’ll never feel like “just another patient.”


Many clients come to me after feeling unheard or rushed in other settings. I take the time to understand your unique story, your goals, and what wellness looks like for you. Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan that may include medication, therapy techniques, and lifestyle strategies.


Taking the first step can feel intimidating, but it’s also an act of courage. I invite you to reach out for an appointment to see if we’re a good fit. You deserve care that helps you feel truly seen, heard, and supported. Ready to Get Started? Contact Stefanie Livingston, PMHNP-BC

Happy patient looking away

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 Therapist in McDonough

Finding psychiatrists in McDonough starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, a prescriber may be part of your care. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a psychiatrist, and some work with both.

McDonough is a smaller market, so local psychiatry appointments may vary by office location, schedule, and availability. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still keeping care consistent with your calendar. Psychiatric care often includes shorter, less frequent medication management visits than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s profile for specialties, appointment availability, visit format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.

Psychiatric care in McDonough 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 match your preferences, accept your plan, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare profiles, 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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
