Tyler Patten, APRN, PMHNP-BC — board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, licensed in Idaho
Cash-pay telehealth psychiatry for adults in Caldwell — no drive across the valley, no insurance required.
Caldwell is at the far end of the Treasure Valley from where nearly all of the region’s psychiatric prescribers sit. Thirty miles doesn’t sound like much until it’s monthly, in traffic, during work hours, for an appointment that lasts twenty minutes.
Agriculture, food processing and warehouse work also don’t stop for a two o’clock appointment. When the only available slots are mid-afternoon on a weekday, plenty of people simply never start.
I’m Tyler Patten, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner licensed in Idaho. Appointments are by video with early and late slots available — $175 for a full hour, $65 for each follow-up.
A published flat price, cash-pay, charged after the appointment rather than at booking.
| Visit | Price |
|---|---|
| New patient evaluation — 60 minutes with Tyler | $175 |
| Follow-up visit — 20 minutes | $65 |
| Typical Caldwell-area private psychiatrist, first visit, out of pocket | $250–$500 |
| Typical follow-up, out of pocket | $100–$250 |
Payment is collected after your appointment, not when you book. A valid card is kept securely on file and charged once the visit is complete. No insurance is billed, so there is no deductible to meet and no surprise bill weeks later.
Pick a time that works. No referral, no waitlist, no phone tag — most new patients are seen within a week.
A full 60 minutes with Tyler, from anywhere in Caldwell with a private space and a connection. Click a link; nothing to install.
Prescriptions go electronically to your Caldwell pharmacy the same day. Follow-ups are $65 and always with the same provider.
A full hour to start, then twenty-minute follow-ups often enough to adjust things properly. Antidepressants, mood stabilizers, non-stimulant ADHD medication, and non-habit-forming options for anxiety and sleep.
I don’t prescribe controlled substances — no stimulants, no benzodiazepines. It’s a fixed policy, and better read here than discovered in your appointment.
And a real look at what could come off. The goal is the least medication that keeps you well, not the longest list that covers every symptom.
