Online therapy and online psychiatry services for Miami
Ascend Mind & Body is the integrated Florida practice that combines psychiatry, therapy, primary care, and ketamine therapy under one roof. For Miami patients, we offer our psychiatric care and therapy services via HIPAA-secure telehealth - the same licensed Florida providers who staff our Wesley Chapel clinic.
- Telehealth psychiatry - initial evaluations, medication management, ADHD assessment, and ongoing care for depression, anxiety, bipolar, PTSD, and OCD.
- Telehealth therapy - individual, couples, and family sessions. CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, and ERP modalities.
- Online medication management - 20–30 min follow-up visits for ongoing refills, dose adjustments, and side-effect monitoring.
- Ketamine consultation - initial consultation can happen via telehealth; infusions require in-person visits at our Wesley Chapel ketamine clinic.
Why Miami Patients Choose Ascend
Miami psychiatric care has a bilingual gap, long waitlists, and a lot of OON practices that make insurance a nightmare. We run telehealth in English and Spanish, take nine insurance plans, and see new patients within two weeks. Ascend gives Miami patients four things most local options do not:
- Fast access. New psychiatric patients are often seen same-day or next-day. Florida’s industry average is 3 to 6 months.
- Real insurance coverage. Nine carriers in-network for psychiatry, not cash-only.
- Named providers. You see the same clinician every visit. Full bios on our provider page.
- Integrated care. Your psychiatrist and therapist share one chart. No faxing, no re-telling your story.
Miami patients are within reach of Jackson Memorial Hospital, University of Miami, Baptist Health, downtown Miami, Brickell, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove - but most of your care can happen from home, on your phone or laptop, in the times you can actually make work.
