I believe that optimal mental health is achieved through an ongoing, multi-pronged approach. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner I am well trained in the art and science of prescribing medications to improve mental health symptoms. I also encourage adjunctive treatment modalities such as CBT. Empowering patients to care for themselves is part of my goal. I embrace opportunities to help my patients gain greater personal insight, because when you can see yourself, you can change yourself.

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 Maryland

Finding psychiatrists in Maryland starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists provide talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. Across Maryland, available psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can vary between urban and rural areas, so it helps to look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want support with.

Your search may look different in Baltimore, Bethesda, Annapolis, or a smaller Maryland community. Some people prefer in-person appointments near home or work, while others choose virtual appointments because they fit more easily into a set schedule. Psychiatry appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s profile for appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their communication style.

Psychiatric care in Maryland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients and match your insurance plan. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm your coverage for your specific location, 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.
