Mental Health Care in Fort Worth, TX
Fort Worth is the 12th-largest city in the United States, and it has its own identity, separate from Dallas in ways that matter to locals. Tarrant County's diverse population, from TCU students to Blue-collar workers in the Stockyards district to suburban families in Southlake, has a wide range of psychiatric needs. Despite the city's size, in-person psychiatric wait times in Fort Worth are often long. We see Fort Worth and Tarrant County patients both in-person at our Pantego clinic and via telehealth. Most major insurance plans accepted.

Fort Worth sits fifteen minutes from our clinic, so this is one of the few big Texas cities where choosing between in-person and video is a genuine choice, not a consolation prize. We see a lot of families from the hospital district and airmen and reservists connected to NAS JRB Fort Worth.
Insurance we see from Fort Worth: Tricare comes up more here than anywhere else in DFW because of the base. Otherwise it is BlueCross, Aetna, and Ambetter in roughly that order.
Getting seen: In person at 2900 W Park Row Dr in Pantego, just off Highway 303, or by video. Evening telehealth slots go fast; book two or three days out.

What to Expect at Lyte Psychiatry
Your first appointment is a full psychiatric evaluation — not a quick intake. Your provider spends 50–60 minutes reviewing your history, current symptoms, medications, and goals. By the end of the visit, you leave with a diagnosis, a specific treatment plan, and if medication is appropriate, a prescription sent to your local pharmacy.
Follow-up visits are typically 20–30 minutes. They focus on how you're responding to treatment, any medication adjustments, and next steps. Most patients are seen monthly at the start of treatment, then less frequently once things are stable.
We work with a lot of patients who've had poor experiences with psychiatry before — rushed appointments, billing surprises, providers who never remember their history. At Lyte, we verify your insurance before your first visit, keep appointment slots open for urgent needs, and give you a direct way to reach your provider between sessions when something comes up.
