I've never written an online review. I just couldn't ignore how amazing my experience has been and I feel like everyone who's ever struggled with mental health issues should know about this option, so here goes.
I work in public safety. I don't carry a gun or badge, but I work closely with men and women who do. I have to think and act quickly to ensure everyone gets home safely. Even though it's 2019 people doing this job still don't feel like asking for outside help is an option. Not long ago I heard about telepsychiatry and really hoped I'd found an answer for the depression/anxiety I'd been pushing through with brute force for years.
From the first appointment she was empathetic and thorough. She took the time to understand the big picture (my med history, family history, work history, what I thought I wanted out of all this). She was non-judgmental and rational. She understood that I was already on meds for migraines and insomnia (thanks night shift!) and that I had to be really careful about taking anything that would slow my reflexes/response time.
She was professional and meticulous - answering all my questions in extreme detail. I've never had an experience with anything psychiatry-related where compassion was involved. She definitely has it. What a welcome relief.
I highly recommend Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Amy McLaughlin at Sunpath Wellness.
Please - if you are on the fence about asking for help, telepsychiatry makes everything about the process so much easier. And if you're anything like me, what could be better than getting the support you need from the comfort and privacy of your own home? read more
