Orchid Bloom Psychiatry & Wellness

FAQ

Our practice is primarily focused on women’s mental health — that is our passion and our specialty. That said, we welcome patients of all backgrounds — including men, even if you’re only here because someone you love gently (or not-so-gently) suggested it. We do make exceptions for men who were patients in Renee’s previous practice, as well as spouses or partners of current patients. Spaces for male patients are very limited, so please call the office directly to discuss availability. Everyone deserves thoughtful, personalized psychiatric care, and we are committed to providing that across the board.

Yes — psychotherapy is woven into every session we provide. We rely heavily on psychoeducation and counseling as part of our integrative approach, so each visit incorporates meaningful therapeutic dialogue alongside medication management when needed. That said, we are a psychiatric practice, not a dedicated therapy clinic. If you feel you would benefit from more frequent or deeper therapy work, we are happy to refer you to excellent local therapists we know and trust, and we have wonderful resources to help guide that process.

Yes — we offer both in-person visits at our office in Stuart, FL and telehealth appointments via secure video. Many patients appreciate the flexibility of telehealth, especially for follow-up visits. We will work with you to determine what format best fits your needs and circumstances.

Your initial intake appointment is 90 minutes. This extended time allows us to truly get to know you — your history, your goals, your lifestyle, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. We take a comprehensive, whole-person view before making any treatment recommendations. You will leave with a clear plan and a sense of being genuinely heard.

We are currently in-network with Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare (UHC), and Medicare. If you have a different insurance plan, we are considered out-of-network but can provide a detailed superbill after each visit that you can submit to your insurer for potential reimbursement. Many plans cover 50–80% of out-of-network mental health services once your deductible is met. HSA and FSA funds can also be used.

We treat a wide range of psychiatric and mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, perimenopause and menopause-related mood changes, postpartum mood disorders, and more. Our integrative approach means we look at the whole picture — including hormonal health, nutrition, sleep, and lifestyle — not just a diagnosis.

The easiest way to get started is to reach out to us directly by phone at (772) 919-9830 or by email at admin@orchidbloompsych.com. You can also use the Book Now button at the top of the page. We’ll schedule a brief call to make sure we’re a good fit before your first full appointment.

For your first appointment, it’s helpful to have:

• A list of any current medications (including supplements)
• Any relevant medical or psychiatric records if available
• Your insurance card
• A list of questions or concerns you’d like to discuss

Most importantly, bring yourself — your story matters, and we want to hear it.

Why Integrative Psychiatry
& Women's Health

Mental health is not a single variable. For women especially, it is woven into biology, life stage, relationships, and the world around them. Here’s why a broader approach changes everything.

Mind & Body Are One

Integrative psychiatry treats the mind and body as connected — looking at nutrition, hormones, gut health, sleep, and genetics to address the root causes of mental health, not just the symptoms.

Compassionate Care icon

Women's Hormones Matter

Hormones like estrogen and cortisol shape mood and cognition, yet mainstream care often overlooks this. Women deserve a provider who understands the full picture.

Evidence Meets Whole-Person Care

Integrative psychiatry builds on evidence-based medicine — combining careful medication management with nutritional support, lifestyle medicine, and mind-body techniques backed by research.
