Tyler Patten, APRN, PMHNP-BC — board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, licensed in Idaho
Cash-pay telehealth psychiatry for adults in Canyon County — a published price and no insurance in the middle.
Nampa is one of the largest cities in Idaho and most of the region’s psychiatric prescribers are twenty miles east. That gap is why so many people here are managed on antidepressants by a primary care provider who has fifteen minutes and no specialist to refer to.
Cost compounds it. In a county where a lot of work is hourly and high-deductible plans are common, an in-network psychiatric evaluation still frequently costs $250 to $500 out of pocket before the deductible is met. The insurance card doesn’t make it affordable; it makes it unpredictable.
I’m Tyler Patten, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner licensed in Idaho. $175 for a full hour, $65 for follow-ups, by video, usually within the week.
Compare this against what your plan actually pays before the deductible is met — not after.
| Visit | Price |
|---|---|
| New patient evaluation — 60 minutes with Tyler | $175 |
| Follow-up visit — 20 minutes | $65 |
| Typical Nampa-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 Nampa with a private space and a connection. Click a link; nothing to install.
Prescriptions go electronically to your Nampa pharmacy the same day. Follow-ups are $65 and always with the same provider.
If you’ve been getting an antidepressant refilled at a primary care visit for years without anyone reassessing it, that reassessment is the appointment. Sometimes the answer is to change nothing, and that’s a real answer.
I don’t prescribe controlled substances — no stimulants, no benzodiazepines. It’s a fixed policy, and better read here than discovered in your appointment.
Antidepressants, mood stabilizers, non-stimulant ADHD medication and non-habit-forming options for anxiety and sleep, followed over time by the same provider.
