ESA letters require thorough assessment and documentation, which goes beyond the scope of our practice's capabilities. 

Therefore , we regret to inform you that our practice is unable to provide ESA letters at this time due to liability concerns.

Letters for disability , work/school accommodations and  family medical leave are only completed if you are an established patient for atleast 3 months and actively participating in psychotherapy and medication management. We cannot complete forms for new patients due to having insufficient time and information to determine prognosis and etc. 

Letters and forms needed for work or school are completed during our appointment, in order to insure accurate information. Please allow 7-10 business days for the letter to be completed and sent to you via the patient portal. 

Forms and letter completed outside of appointments will require a fee, depending on the number of pages. The cost ranges from 25-75 dollars. 

At our practice, patient safety and responsible prescribing practices are paramount considerations. As such, we adhere strictly to regulations set forth by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regarding controlled substances. Controlled substances, such as benzodiazepines (e.g., Xanax, Ativan, Valium), hypnotics (e.g., Lunesta, Ambien), and stimulants (e.g., Adderall, Ritalin), are powerful medications with significant potential for abuse and adverse effects. Consequently, we do not routinely prescribe these medications unless clinically indicated and deemed necessary for your treatment plan.

Furthermore, any individual being considered for a controlled substance prescription will undergo a urine drug screen prior to initiation of the medication and periodically thereafter at the provider's discretion. This protocol helps ensure that patients are using prescribed medications responsibly and are not engaging in substance misuse or abuse. It's important to note that if a urine drug screen detects substances such as marijuana, alcohol, or excessive amounts of caffeine, it may impact the decision to prescribe a controlled substance.

Our practice is committed to promoting patient well-being and minimizing potential risks associated with controlled substances. We encourage open communication and collaboration to explore alternative treatment options that align with your needs and goals. Your health and safety are our top priorities, and we appreciate your cooperation in maintaining a safe and effective treatment environment. If you have any questions or concerns about our controlled substance policy, please don't hesitate to discuss them with your provider.

You may have expected this time of your life to be the happiest you’ve ever felt but find the opposite to be true. No matter what stage of the perinatal journey you’re in, it could be affecting your mental and physical health in ways you didn’t expect.​

Your outlook on pregnancy and motherhood can improve under the skilled guidance of a perinatal mental health provider. Brighter Day Psychiatry is a telehealth based practice that provides medication for various perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. 

We have experience in supporting women who are trying to conceive, pregnant and postpartum. We offer a well-rounded and compassionate approach to mental health, looking at all aspects of your lifestyle before making any treatment recommendations. 

In addition to gathering a thorough medical, psychological, social, and perinatal history, we will also assess your sleep habits, nutritional intake, current stressors, and cultural and spiritual preferences before making recommendations. We provide a safe and judgement free space. Our continuous goal is to nurture, encourage, extend hope and contribute to your overall mental health and well-being.
