Thoughtful psychiatric care, without the waiting room.
Board-certified medication management for anxiety, depression, and the weight of simply holding it all together. Plans are personal. Appointments aren’t rushed.

Take care of your mind. It’s where you live every day.
Care for what actually shows up in everyday life.
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. Care begins with listening — and with the understanding that what you’re carrying is real.
Anxiety & Worry
Racing thoughts, a tight chest, the sense that something is always about to go wrong.
Depression & Low Mood
Flat days, missing motivation, and the slow drain of not feeling like yourself.
Mood & Bipolar
Highs and lows that feel disorienting, and the wish for steadier ground.
Sleep & Focus
Nights that won’t end and days that blur — when rest and attention both feel out of reach.
Stress & Burnout
Life transitions, caregiving fatigue, and the burnout that creeps in quietly.
Trauma Symptoms
Old responses that no longer fit the present — hypervigilance, avoidance, overwhelm.
From curious to confirmed, in three simple steps.
Book Online
Choose a time through the patient portal. No phone tag, no forms sent by fax. Your first visit is typically a 60-minute psychiatric evaluation.
Meet Your Provider
Sit down with Tylon for a focused conversation about your symptoms, history, and goals.
Follow-Up Care
We build a plan that fits your life, adjust as needed, and stay in touch through the portal between visits.
Getting mental health care shouldn’t feel overwhelming, inconvenient, or out of reach — especially when you’re already holding a lot.
Hi, I’m Tylon.
I’m a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner based in Southern Ohio, caring for adults across the state. My work is medication management — done carefully, with time to talk and time to listen.
My practice is small on purpose. It means your visits aren’t rushed, your plan is built around your actual life, and you talk to the same person every time.
If you’ve been thinking about reaching out, this is your sign.
Accessible care, clearly priced.

Before your first visit.
Not sure what to expect? A few things most new patients want to know — answered plainly.
What happens on the first appointment?
Your first visit is a 60-minute psychiatric evaluation. We review your history, current symptoms, goals, and any medications you’re taking. If medication is appropriate, we discuss options together and build a plan.
Do I need a referral?
No referral is needed. You can book directly through the patient portal. If your insurance requires one, we’ll help coordinate.
What won’t you treat?
This practice focuses on adult outpatient medication management. Active crises, substance-use-focused treatment, and court-ordered evaluations are outside our scope, and we’ll help you find an appropriate provider if that’s what you need.
How do I reach you between visits?
All non-urgent clinical communication happens through the secure patient portal. For emergencies, please dial 988 or 911.
Ready when you are.
Booking takes about two minutes. No referral needed. Most major Ohio insurance accepted.
