I had an excellent experience at this practice. The office is impeccably clean, comfortable, and has a calming, positive vibe. Everyone was professional and welcoming. The person I met with was on her A-game—confident, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind. She made me feel completely at ease even though I wasn’t sure what to expect. I left feeling impressed and grateful to have found such a competent and caring practice. 🫶

Deleted my review last year because I felt bad but this is getting ridiculous. Earlier this year, because the billing department screwed up, they charged $35 copay instead of $45 per appointment when I saw the nurse practitioner. So we owed a few hundred even though it wasn’t our fault. They bombarded me with emails and even sent us an intimidating letter to my new address in another state (no idea how they got it) asking for the remaining balance and if we didn’t pay they’d escalate. I haven’t been at this clinic since summer of last year and to randomly receive all this was sketch. After going back and fourth with insurance and the billing people, we eventually paid the remaining balance because we had to, even though they screwed up. We paid a few months ago, and I recently received another email still asking for money! This is getting ridiculous and I want this to stop now. I feel harassed and I’m tired of being reminded of this terrible clinic every few months. Now the reason why I originally left a negative review was because of an incident I had with Shelly the nurse practitioner. Basically what happened was after I completely TMS therapy and felt better, I wanted to taper off medication, since I saw no point in continuing since it wasn’t helping in the first place. She got emotional and gave me an ultimatum, either I keep taking meds or she’ll fire me. Didn’t even bring in the doctor to discuss. I wasn’t even given a taper plan after I was fired either, so that was dangerous. I had to sit in the waiting room crying as Shelly printed out my discharge papers and coldly wished me good luck. What kind of treatment was that for a patient that was there for over half a year? It makes no sense that they promote TMS therapy for people with medication-resistant depression (which I have) but will then kick you to the curb after you feel better and wanna taper off the very meds that never helped anyway. Makes no sense at all. These people just want you on meds so they can make money. So yeah expect them to fire you if you express wanting to get off meds after TMS. I’ve been trying to be patient and just let this go but I have to say something since the emails don’t stop. Please leave me alone. Edit: Never said you didn’t deserve to be paid fully, but the fact that your billing team made a mistake and is still sending emails asking for money after we paid is an issue. You’re twisting it as if we messed up, when in reality we paid what we were billed at the time. Take your corpo response somewhere else please. 2nd Edit since they deleted their first response: I get mistakes happen but seeing another email asking for $350 we already paid is extremely stressful especially after having a negative experience. And the reason why the balance wasn’t paid for some time was because your billing department never gave us a reason why we even owed this amount. My dad actually called early this year because they charged his card $350 WITHOUT letting us know, and he told them that was a mistake and that we paid everything we were billed, and they refunded us. But after that they kept reaching out asking for that money. We eventually found out through our insurance (not you guys) what the mistake was. Again you’re acting like we were never proactive in paying. Who’s gonna pay a mysterious large bill without a reason?

I was honestly very hesitant to even book an appointment but after visiting Bright Horizons Psychiatry and meeting the team my perspective completely changed The staff were warm and approachable and the provider really took time to listen and explain everything in a way that made sense I walked out feeling lighter and more hopeful than I had in a long time and things only got better once I started the treatments The care and support here have made a real difference for me and I’m grateful I took that first step

I had a truly positive experience during my recent visit to Bright Horizons Psychiatry. From the moment I walked in, the environment felt calm, welcoming, and supportive. The front desk staff were friendly, efficient, and made the check-in process smooth and stress-free. My session with the provider was excellent. They took the time to listen carefully, asked thoughtful questions, and created a safe space where I felt comfortable opening up. It was clear that they were not only knowledgeable but genuinely cared about my well-being and long-term progress. The treatment plan we discussed felt personalized and collaborative, which I really appreciated. Overall, I left feeling heard, supported, and optimistic. I highly recommend Bright Horizons Psychiatry to anyone seeking compassionate and professional mental health care.

You Might Be Wondering...

Yes. Many psychiatrists in Rockville accept Medicare Part B for outpatient mental health services, including psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and follow-up visits. Medicare typically covers 80% of approved costs after the deductible, while the remaining 20% may be covered by supplemental insurance. Some clinics also accept Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans, which often include expanded benefits and lower copays.

Contact us to verify your insurance coverage.

Medicare-accepting psychiatrists in Rockville commonly treat depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, adult ADHD, panic disorder, mood disorders, and treatment-resistant mental health conditions. Medicare covers appointments necessary for diagnosis, ongoing management, medication reviews, and medically necessary therapies recommended by your psychiatrist.

Yes. Medicare continues to cover telehealth psychiatry visits, allowing patients in Maryland to meet with their psychiatrist online from home. These virtual sessions are billed the same as in-person visits and are ideal for individuals with mobility limitations, transportation challenges, or those seeking convenient access to mental health support.

Medicare typically covers TMS therapy for treatment-resistant major depressive disorder when specific clinical criteria are met. Coverage for Spravato (esketamine) may also be available with prior authorization and documentation of failed antidepressant treatments. Each case is reviewed individually, and the clinic’s billing team usually helps verify eligibility to prevent unexpected costs.

Most clinics offer fast insurance verification, where they review your Medicare Part B or Medicare Advantage plan before your first visit. You can also call the number on your Medicare card or check the Medicare provider directory. Bringing your Medicare card and supplementary insurance details to your first appointment ensures smooth enrollment and accurate billing.

Your first session typically includes a comprehensive mental health evaluation, medical history review, medication assessment, and a discussion about your symptoms and goals. The psychiatrist will create a personalized treatment plan, which may include medication, lifestyle recommendations, therapy referrals, or advanced treatments. This visit is fully or partially covered by Medicare depending on your plan.

Many Medicare patients struggle with long waitlists in Maryland, but our psychiatric specialized clinic — Bright Horizons psychiatry — offer shorter wait times and same-week availability. Call us at 240-599-1001 and you can get the soonest appointment.

For your first visit, bring:

  • Your Medicare Part B card or Medicare Advantage card

  • Any supplemental insurance information

  • A list of current medications

  • Previous mental health records (optional)

  • Photo ID

Having these documents ready ensures your coverage is verified quickly and your appointment runs smoothly. Contact our care cordinators to get a full list of documents needed.
