[quote=Anonymous]When my then 16-year-old was exhibiting clear signs of depression and refusing school a few days a week, we went to the pediatrician first, and they recommended psychiatrists who all had long waiting lists. We ended up connecting with a psychiatric nurse practitioner who takes our insurance, and does telehealth visits although she is actually based very close to our home. She prescribed an antidepressant and something to help with sleep and anxiety, and my child turned the corner within a few weeks. Three years later, she is thriving and still on the same medication and still seeing that NP periodically by telehealth (from college) for medication renewals.[/quote]
