# Telehealth Psychiatry in Jacksonville 

Jacksonville is the largest city by land area in the continental United States — which means 'nearby' can still be forty minutes away, and the psychiatric provider you need may be on the far side of a very big map. Add a significant Navy presence and the outlying stretches of Northeast Florida, and access becomes a real geography problem.

Telehealth answers that geography directly. Sheilah Battle-Stephens, PMHNP-BC, serves the Jacksonville region by secure video as a Florida-licensed psychiatric provider — distance stops being the deciding factor.

## Distance shouldn't decide your care

Across a footprint as large as Jacksonville's — and the smaller towns of Northeast Florida around it — the closest psychiatric provider can be an impractical drive. Secure video collapses that distance: a board-certified provider is as close as your phone, whether you're in Riverside, at the Beaches, or well outside the urban core.

Sheilah offers evaluations and medication management for adults across anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders, with a welcome to the area's veterans and military families and an unhurried, listening-first approach.

## Honest about how this works

New Leaf is telehealth-only — no Jacksonville office. Sheilah is licensed in Florida (PMHNP #11022244) and sees patients by secure video; you'll need to be physically located in Florida at appointment time. New Leaf is a private-pay practice — we don't bill insurance, so the cost of every visit is clear before you book.

## Who she sees in the Jacksonville region

-   Residents far from the nearest psychiatric provider 
-   Navy and veteran families across the First Coast 
-   Busy professionals, parents, and seniors 
-   Adults in the smaller towns of Northeast Florida 

Common questions 

## Frequently asked.
