# Telehealth Psychiatry in Tampa 

Tampa Bay carries a large military and veteran community — anchored by MacDill Air Force Base — alongside a fast-growing base of finance, healthcare, and tech professionals. Both worlds share a quiet challenge: getting mental health care without it costing a day, a commute, or a measure of privacy.

Sheilah Battle-Stephens, PMHNP-BC, serves the Tampa area by secure video as a Florida-licensed psychiatric provider, with a particular welcome to veterans and first responders.

## Care that respects service and schedule

For veterans, first responders, and shift-heavy professionals, care from your own private space — at a time that fits — can matter as much as the care itself. Sheilah provides psychiatric evaluations and medication management for anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and trauma-related concerns, with a listening-first, direct-yet-approachable manner shaped by 36 years in healthcare.

Telehealth also bridges the gap when local psychiatric waitlists are long, connecting Tampa Bay residents to a board-certified provider without the wait.

## Honest about how this works

New Leaf is telehealth-only; there's no Tampa office. Sheilah is licensed in Florida (PMHNP #11022244) and sees patients by secure video, and you'll need to be physically 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. (If you have VA benefits, ask how private-pay psychiatric care can fit alongside them.)

## Who she sees in Tampa Bay

-   Veterans and active-duty-adjacent families 
-   First responders and healthcare workers 
-   Finance, tech, and professional-services workers 
-   Seniors, and LGBTQ+ adults across the Bay area
