Telehealth Psychiatry in Marianna, FL
Twelve Oaks Psychiatry provides telehealth psychiatry for adults and adolescents, with psychiatric medication management when appropriate, by secure video from home in Marianna, often the same day. In 2026, none of Jackson County’s 49,629 residents had a psychiatrist practicing in their own county, by the practice’s care access study, and video care closes that gap. Michael Hernandez, APRN, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, leads every visit.
Psychiatry by Video in Marianna
The opening appointment is unhurried on purpose: how sleep, worry, attention, and mood have gone lately, the health picture around them, and the reason you booked, worked through together from a private space at home.
Prescriptions follow evaluation and Florida and federal requirements, each visit happens while you sit physically in Florida, and Michael raises it himself when video is not the right tool.

FAQ
Do I ever need to be seen in person?
Only rarely, and never without warning. The care is arranged to run start to finish on video. On the uncommon occasion an exam in a room is truly needed, Michael brings it up himself and helps you decide where to have it. Your record keeps going.
What do I need for a video visit?
A phone, tablet, or computer with a camera, a private space to talk, and being physically in Florida at the time of the visit. A secure link is sent before the appointment, and for teen visits a parent or guardian joins as well.
I wanted an online psychiatrist in Marianna. Does this count?
Close, with one honest distinction. Psychiatry over video is exactly what this is, and one clinician runs all of it: Michael, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner rather than a physician. The evaluation is his, the prescribing decisions are his, and so is every later visit.
Is prescribing something a video visit can actually do?
Many psychiatric medications can be prescribed and managed through video visits, with prescriptions sent electronically to a Florida pharmacy. Prescribing decisions follow a full evaluation and Florida and federal prescribing requirements, some medications carry additional rules for video visits, and no medication is guaranteed in advance.
I cannot leave the farm or the family for a day of appointments. Does that rule this out?
No. A video appointment takes the hour it takes and nothing around it, so the work you cannot hand off and the people who count on you are not left for a morning. Visits run Monday through Friday, 10am to 6pm, same-day openings included.
Is this open to teenagers?
Yes. Every teen appointment includes a parent or guardian, present on camera or reachable throughout, with the teen given first turn to say what is going on. Michael matches the language to their age and walks the parent through each finding and each option.
I live outside Marianna, out in Jackson County. Does the visit change?
It does not. A video visit asks only that Florida is where you are when it happens, so an address out in the county, or in a smaller community across it, gets the same appointment. All you add is a closed door and a camera.
Does insurance cover telehealth visits?
Yes. Twelve Oaks Psychiatry accepts most major insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, AvMed, and 200+ additional plans. Telehealth coverage varies by plan, so please confirm your benefits and in-network status with your insurer before your first video visit.
Are same-day video appointments available?
Often, yes. Same-day video appointments are frequently open Monday through Friday, 10am to 6pm, and can be booked up to two hours before the visit. Calling (954) 947-1130 earlier in the day helps.
What should I do in a mental health crisis?
If you feel you might harm yourself or someone else, or you are in immediate danger, call 9-1-1 right away. For crisis support, you can reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by calling or texting 988. In many Florida communities, 2-1-1 connects you to crisis information and local referrals.
