Dr. Jayanti earned his medical degree from Texas A&M College of Medicine and continued his training at The University of Texas at Austin. He completed his residency at the UT Health Science Center in Tyler and pursued a fellowship in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at UT Dell in Austin.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding psychiatrists in Midland starts with knowing how psychiatric care differs from therapy. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists, including counselors and social workers, provide talk therapy and support. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, it can help to read each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, background, and approach to medication management before booking.
In a smaller city like Midland, local psychiatry appointments may be more limited than in larger Texas metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you choose a psychiatrist who fits your schedule, preferences, and care needs. Psychiatry visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber, so it can help to review each bio for appointment format, availability, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Midland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first visit. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients with your plan, verify your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
