Tyler Patten, APRN, PMHNP-BC — board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, licensed in Florida
Cash-pay telehealth psychiatry for adults in the Tampa Bay area — without crossing the bay for twenty minutes.
Tampa Bay is one enormous, low-density metropolitan area stitched together by causeways and interstates. The psychiatric practice with an opening is frequently on the other side of a bridge, and a monthly twenty-minute medication check becomes a two-hour errand.
The region has also grown faster than its behavioural health capacity, so the appointment on the far side of that bridge is often months out to begin with.
I’m Tyler Patten, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner licensed in Florida. Video appointments: $175 for a full first hour, $65 for follow-ups, usually available within the week.
Flat published pricing, cash-pay, with nothing charged at booking.
| Visit | Price |
|---|---|
| New patient evaluation — 60 minutes with Tyler | $175 |
| Follow-up visit — 20 minutes | $65 |
| Typical Tampa-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 Tampa with a private space and a connection. Click a link; nothing to install.
Prescriptions go electronically to your Tampa pharmacy the same day. Follow-ups are $65 and always with the same provider.
A full hour to begin, then twenty-minute follow-ups often enough to adjust a medication properly rather than only when something goes wrong.
I don’t prescribe controlled substances — no stimulants, no benzodiazepines. Florida has a great many telehealth practices built around exactly that; this isn’t one of them.
Where a prescription has quietly been renewing for years without review, that reassessment is the visit — and sometimes the right answer is to change nothing.
