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.

Frequently asked questions


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 Memphis
Finding the right psychiatrist in Memphis starts with understanding the kind of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage psychiatric care. 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, background, and care approach to see whether their training matches your needs.
Memphis offers a range of psychiatry options across neighborhoods like Midtown, Downtown, East Memphis, and nearby areas such as Germantown and Collierville. In-person appointments may be useful when an office is close to home or work, while virtual appointments can make scheduling easier when local office times are limited. Psychiatry visits, especially medication management appointments, 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, read psychiatrist bios to understand appointment style, availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Memphis 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 owe before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists in Memphis who are accepting new patients with your plan, compare virtual and in-person options, review detailed profiles, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. Browse psychiatrists, review bios, and book directly when you are 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.
