Dr. Stephanie Couyoute

I provide online psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive care for adolescents (16+) and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, bipolar and sleep difficulties. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of healthcare experience across critical care, acute care, and psychiatry, I look at the full picture of your physical and mental health to help you feel like yourself again.

Whether you are exploring medication for the first time or looking for a fresh, more thoughtful approach to your current treatment, I take the time to truly listen. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from Palm Beach Atlantic University and treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar and other mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, insomnia, stress, and grief.

You will never feel rushed or treated like a checklist. Together, we will build a realistic, personalized treatment plan aligned with your daily life, health history and goals, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

You don’t need to arrive with a diagnosis or know which medication to ask for. I start by listening to what you’re experiencing, how it affects your daily life, and what you want to change. I approach care with respect for your experiences, cultural background, and preferences.

Treatment may include medication management, supportive counseling, education, and practical strategies. I explain my recommendations, including potential benefits and side effects, and welcome your questions so we can make informed decisions together.

At follow-up visits, we’ll discuss what’s improving, what remains difficult, and any medication concerns. We’ll adjust your treatment plan based on your response and goals.

Your first appointment is a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. We’ll begin with what brought you to care and what you’d like help with, then discuss your symptoms, medical and mental health history, sleep, daily routines, and past treatment experiences.

You’ll have time to share concerns, ask questions, and discuss treatments that haven’t worked for you. I’ll explain my assessment in clear language and review your options, including whether medication may be appropriate.

Before we finish, we’ll discuss your treatment plan and follow-up care. My goal is for you to understand what we’re addressing, why I’m recommending a particular approach, and what happens next.
