Available Psychiatric Services in Oakland Park

As a full-service psychiatric clinic, the team at My Psychiatrist is with you every step of the way through treatment. To understand your symptoms and needs, we offer an expert consultation and evaluation. Then, we deliver one-on-one care and create a customized plan that increases the chances of long-term recovery. 

We are also affiliated with many of Florida’s top behavioral health hospitals, ensuring you receive the specific acute care you need.

Service Details

At My Psychiatrist, patients will have access to complete care, including the following. 

Outpatient

With our convenient outpatient services, you get traditional or holistic outpatient care while maintaining your daily routine and schedule. 

Substance Abuse Treatment

Whether you are struggling with a drug or alcohol addiction, we have outpatient, IOP and PHP services to treat your mental health and reach long-term recovery. 

TMS

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive, FDA-approved solution for depression. If you have treatment-resistant depression, this safe and effective procedure may be right for you. 

Adult and Geriatric

Older adults with mental health conditions need specialized treatments. Through our geriatric psychiatry services, we help meet age-related needs and challenges.

Telemedicine

We also offer telemedicine for your convenience. Choose from either video chats or audio calls and receive the same high-quality psychiatric care from the comfort of your home. 

SPRAVATO® for Treatment-Resistant Depression

Depression can make it difficult to handle life’s everyday responsibilities. Many patients know they need treatment but struggle to pursue it. It’s a frustrating cycle that becomes more stressful when treatment fails to provide the results you need.

The board-certified clinicians at My Psychiatrist administer SPRAVATO® — a nasal spray that compounds with your antidepressants to relieve symptoms when other methods leave you without results.

What We Treat

We treat all patients struggling with mental and behavioral health issues. Some of the specific conditions we treat include the following.

Depression 

Depression is challenging but treatable. There are several different types, such as atypical, bipolar and psychotic depression. With lifestyle changes, medication and TMS therapy, we can help you manage symptoms here in Oakland Park.

ADD/ ADHD

Both attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can have symptoms ranging from inattentive to hyper-impulsive — or a combination of both. You’ll find it easier to plan and carry out daily tasks with therapy or medications. 

Anxiety Disorders 

Anxiety disorders like panic disorder or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) make daily living a challenge. Our plans, which incorporate medications and therapies, can help you minimize and control your anxious feelings.

Substance Abuse

Substance abuse can involve alcohol, prescription medication or illegal drugs. With options like substance abuse detox, therapy and aftercare, we’ll get you started on the path to lasting recovery. 

Bipolar Disorders 

Bipolar disorder is characterized by a cycle of high and low emotions and behaviors. Bipolar I, Bipolar II and cyclothymic disorder (cyclothymia) can get you started on a tailored treatment plan that helps minimize extremes in mood. 

Insomnia 

Insomnia, or difficulty falling asleep, can be either acute or chronic. Once we determine the cause, we’ll create a customized treatment plan that helps you get the rest you need.
