Garland is located in the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex, one of America's fastest-growing metro areas with over 7 million residents. One of DFW's most diverse cities. Large Hispanic and immigrant population. Working-class community. For Garland residents seeking stress care, the combination of a growing population and limited local psychiatric provider supply means that wait times at traditional practices can stretch weeks or months. Lyte Psychiatry's telehealth model eliminates that barrier, most patients in Garland and Dallas County are seen within the week.
