Credentials and method
Florida telehealth for Psychiatric Evaluations requires the patient to be physically in Florida at the time of the visit. Crossing a state line mid-treatment can pause prescribing until licensure allows.
Crisis care is not provided after hours. Psychiatric Evaluations patients in acute danger are directed to 988 or an emergency department. Ongoing care resumes after medical stabilization.
GeneSight pharmacogenetic testing is available when prior antidepressant trials failed or side effects were limiting. Results are probabilistic, not deterministic.
Book Psychiatric Evaluations
Start with one thorough Psychiatric Evaluations evaluation rather than a series of 15-minute check-ins. Book at (888) 307-2199 or online.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Psychiatric Evaluations so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.
