Urgent Same-Day Psychiatric Care in Orlando
When you're experiencing a mental health crisis or urgent psychiatric symptoms, waiting weeks to see a psychiatrist isn't an option. At our mental health clinic in Orlando, we understand that mental health emergencies require prompt attention. That's why we offer same-day psychiatrist appointments for Orlando residents who need urgent psychiatric care.
Our board-certified psychiatrists provide same-day appointments for severe depression, panic attacks, anxiety crises, medication emergencies, suicidal thoughts (but call 988 for imminent risk), acute mood episodes, ADHD medication concerns, and other urgent psychiatric needs. Whether you need a same-day evaluation, urgent medication adjustment, or crisis intervention, our Orlando psychiatrists are here to help you get the immediate care you need.
We accept most major insurance plans for urgent psychiatric appointments and offer both in-person same-day visits at our Winter Park office (convenient to Orlando, Lake Mary, Altamonte Springs, and Maitland) and urgent telepsychiatry appointments for faster access. Call us today at 386-848-8751 to schedule your same-day psychiatrist appointment in Orlando.
When to Seek Same-Day Psychiatric Care
Consider calling for a same-day psychiatrist appointment if you're experiencing:
- Severe Depression: Worsening depressive symptoms, inability to function, thoughts of self-harm
- Panic Attacks: Frequent or severe panic attacks interfering with daily life
- Anxiety Crisis: Overwhelming anxiety that's become unmanageable
- Medication Problems: Severe side effects, medication not working, ran out of essential psychiatric medications
- Mood Episodes: Acute manic or depressive episodes in bipolar disorder
- Suicidal Thoughts: New or worsening thoughts of suicide (call 988 for crisis intervention)
- ADHD Crisis: Urgent need for ADHD medication evaluation or refill
- Sleep Crisis: Severe insomnia affecting your functioning and wellbeing
- Acute Psychosis: New hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized thinking
- Rapid Deterioration: Quick worsening of any psychiatric condition
Important: If you're in immediate danger or having thoughts of harming yourself or others, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. For suicide crisis support, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
Our Same-Day Psychiatry Services
Urgent Psychiatric Evaluations
Same-day comprehensive psychiatric assessments for Orlando residents experiencing mental health crises or urgent psychiatric symptoms. We evaluate your current symptoms, assess risk, review psychiatric history, and develop an immediate treatment plan to address your urgent needs.
Emergency Medication Management
Urgent medication prescribing, adjustments, or changes when you're having a psychiatric emergency. Whether your current medications aren't working, you're experiencing severe side effects, or you've run out of essential psychiatric medications, we provide same-day medication solutions.
Urgent Telepsychiatry Appointments
Virtual same-day psychiatrist appointments for even faster access. If you can't make it to our office, we can often see you the same day via secure video call. Perfect when you're too anxious to leave home or need immediate care but can't travel.
Crisis Intervention & Safety Planning
Immediate psychiatric intervention for mental health crises. We help stabilize acute symptoms, develop safety plans, provide crisis resources, and determine if higher level of care (such as intensive outpatient or inpatient treatment) is needed.

Getting urgent psychiatric care is simple:
- 1. Call Our Office: Contact us at 386-848-8751 and let our team know you need a same-day appointment
- 2. Describe Your Situation: Briefly explain your urgent psychiatric needs so we can triage appropriately
- 3. Choose Appointment Type: Select in-person (at our Winter Park office near Orlando) or virtual telepsychiatry appointment
- 4. Same-Day Appointment: We'll schedule you with one of our board-certified psychiatrists the same day when possible
- 5. Get Immediate Help: Meet with your psychiatrist, receive evaluation, get prescriptions if needed, and develop a treatment plan
While we make every effort to accommodate same-day requests, availability depends on demand. Call as early in the day as possible for best same-day availability. Virtual telepsychiatry appointments often have more same-day availability than in-person visits.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I really see a psychiatrist the same day in Orlando?
Yes! We reserve appointment slots specifically for urgent same-day cases. While same-day availability isn't guaranteed every day, we make every effort to see urgent patients within 24 hours. Call 386-848-8751 as early in the day as possible for best same-day availability.
What qualifies as urgent enough for a same-day psychiatrist appointment?
Common urgent situations include: severe worsening of depression or anxiety, new suicidal thoughts, panic attacks that are overwhelming, medication emergencies (severe side effects or ran out), acute mood episodes in bipolar disorder, or any psychiatric symptom that's significantly impacting your safety or functioning.
Will insurance cover a same-day psychiatrist appointment?
Yes, most insurance plans cover urgent psychiatric appointments the same way they cover regularly scheduled appointments. We accept Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, and many other insurance plans. Your same-day appointment will be billed as a standard psychiatric evaluation or medication management visit.
Can you prescribe medications during a same-day appointment?
Absolutely. Our board-certified psychiatrists can prescribe all psychiatric medications including antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, ADHD medications, mood stabilizers, and antipsychotics during same-day appointments when medically appropriate. Prescriptions are sent electronically to your Orlando pharmacy for immediate pickup.
Is telepsychiatry faster for same-day appointments?
Often yes. Virtual telepsychiatry appointments typically have more same-day availability because there's no commute time and scheduling is more flexible. If you need to be seen urgently, telepsychiatry is often the fastest option for same-day psychiatric care in Orlando.
What if I'm having a true psychiatric emergency?
If you're in immediate danger, having thoughts of harming yourself or others, or experiencing a severe psychiatric emergency, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. For suicide crisis support, call or text 988. Our same-day appointments are for urgent but non-emergency psychiatric needs.
