Hi, I'm David the founder of Oram Psychiatry, a private practice that serves all of New York, DC and Maryland. I am dedicated to delivering compassionate, individualized mental health care and I've been recognized by Todays Nurse as a top provider, which reflects my commitment to excellence in psychiatric care.
I specialize in diagnosing and treating a comprehensive range of psychiatric disorders, including neurodevelopmental disorders, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, bipolar and depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, trauma- and stressor-related disorders, dissociative disorders, somatic symptom disorders, feeding and eating disorders, elimination disorders, sleep-wake disorders, sexual dysfunctions, gender dysphoria, disruptive and conduct disorders, substance-related and addictive disorders, neurocognitive disorders, personality disorders, paraphilic disorders, and other mental health conditions.
Welcome ! I’m Telisa Taylor, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with advanced training in psychiatric assessment, medication management, and trauma-informed care. My background includes working with diverse populations in outpatient and community settings, which has given me a deep understanding of both complex mental health needs and everyday life stressors.
I specialize in supporting teens, adults, professionals, and parents who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, psychosis, and life transitions. My practice blends medication, therapy, and coaching to treat the whole person and create a personalized path toward stability and wellness.
Above all, clients should know that my style is warm, approachable, and relatable—and that their comfort, safety, and growth are always my top priorities.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide compassionate and evidence-based care for individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and life transitions. I believe in creating a safe, collaborative space where you feel heard and supported. My approach combines clinical expertise with genuine empathy to help you reach emotional balance and overall well-being. I’m committed to helping clients build insight, develop coping strategies, and achieve meaningful change at their own pace
I received my Master's in Mental Health Counseling in 2016, worked for a substance abuse IOP until 2021 and have since been in private practice. I specialize in substance abuse but also work with many seeking help for anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, etc.
You should know that I take your concerns seriously, and I will meet you with compassion, respect, and zero judgment. I understand that reaching out for mental health support can feel intimidating, especially if you have faced stigma, felt dismissed in the past, or worried about what a diagnosis might mean. My goal is to help you feel safe and at ease from the very first conversation.
As a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over eight years of experience in psychiatric and mental health care, I work with individuals across the lifespan. I commonly support people navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, stress-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other emotional or behavioral health challenges. I approach each person as a whole, not a label, and I take the time to understand your symptoms in the context of your life, your stressors, your strengths, and your goals.
In our work together, you can expect a collaborative, patient-centered approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard and involved, so we will discuss what you are experiencing, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what you want to be different moving forward. If medication is part of your care, I prioritize thoughtful, evidence-based decisions, clear education about options, and ongoing adjustments based on your response and preferences. I also value practical strategies and supportive guidance that you can apply between sessions.
Most importantly, I am passionate about each person I serve because I know you are important, and I recognize the courage it takes to seek help. My role is to offer steady, professional support and a trusting relationship as you work toward clarity, stability, and lasting wellness.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Bel Air, MD
Searching for therapists in Bel Air starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People may look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Bel Air therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to work on. Some therapists may mention cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, family therapy, or experience with couples and marriage counseling in Bel Air, MD.
In a smaller market like Bel Air and the broader Harford County area, local therapist availability may vary by specialty, schedule, and appointment format. Virtual sessions can expand your options while still giving you access to therapists licensed in Maryland. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person or virtual appointments, how soon you want to start, and whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand each therapist’s style, session structure, and experience before you book.
Therapy in Bel Air can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, many of whom accept insurance and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before booking, then review profiles and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
