At I Amadeus Psychiatry, we provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing follow-up care with Laura Besada, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner.
Whether you’re seeking answers for the first time, returning to treatment, or looking for continued care, we begin by understanding your concerns and goals.
In-person appointments are available in Miami, with telehealth appointments across Florida when clinically appropriate.
Start With a Clearer Understanding
Your first appointment is an opportunity to talk about what brought you to care and how you’ve been feeling. You don’t need a previous diagnosis or a clear explanation of your symptoms.
Your evaluation may include:
• Your current symptoms and their effect on daily life
• Mental health and medical history
• Previous treatment and medication experiences
• Sleep, mood, attention, and stress
• Relevant family history and substance use
• Your preferences, questions, and treatment goals
We’ll discuss our findings and recommendations together. When needed, additional records, testing, or follow-up may help clarify your diagnosis and treatment options.
Informed Decisions About Your Treatment
Medication may be one part of a mental health treatment plan. We’ll discuss whether it may be appropriate for you, explain potential benefits and risks, and consider your preferences.
Medication management may include:
• Reviewing current and previous medications
• Discussing treatment options and alternatives
• Starting or adjusting medication when appropriate
• Monitoring effectiveness, side effects, and interactions
• Reviewing recommended laboratory testing or other monitoring
• Discussing how to safely change or discontinue treatment when needed
Prescriptions depend on your evaluation, clinical needs, and applicable requirements. A specific medication or prescription is not guaranteed.

Review Progress & Adjust Your Plan
Follow-up visits give us time to discuss how you’re doing and whether your treatment continues to meet your needs.
During these appointments, we may review:
• Changes in symptoms and daily functioning
• Medication benefits and side effects
• Sleep, stress, and relevant life changes
• Questions or concerns about your treatment
• Progress toward your goals
• Recommended next steps and follow-up timing
Appointment frequency depends on your symptoms, treatment, and monitoring needs.

Connect With Care From a Private, Convenient Location
Telehealth allows you to meet with Laura through a secure video appointment when appropriate for your care.
For your visit, you’ll need:
• To be physically located in Florida
• A phone, tablet, or computer with a camera and microphone
• A reliable internet connection
• A private space where you can speak comfortably
• Your current location and contact information available for the appointment
Some concerns may require an in-person visit, physical examination, testing, or a different level of care. We’ll discuss these needs with you when relevant.
Meet Face to Face
In-person appointments offer an opportunity to discuss your concerns and treatment in a private office setting.
Initial evaluations and follow-up visits are available by appointment, subject to scheduling availability and clinical appropriateness.
Visit our Contact page for office information and directions.
You Don’t Have to Wait Until Symptoms Feel Unmanageable
Changes in sleep, mood, motivation, attention, or worry deserve attention—even if you’re still keeping up with everyday responsibilities.
An early evaluation can help you understand what you’re noticing, explore contributing factors, and discuss appropriate support.
Seeking care does not automatically mean you need medication. Recommendations may include monitoring, therapy, psychiatric treatment, or evaluation by another healthcare professional.
Revisit Your Needs With a Fresh Conversation
If you’ve received psychiatric treatment before, we can review your history, current concerns, and goals to determine whether our services are a good fit.
Please bring an updated medication list and relevant treatment records when available. Previous prescriptions are reviewed as part of a new evaluation; continuing the same medication is not automatic.
If you’re transferring care, discuss medication supply and transition arrangements with your current prescriber before ending that treatment relationship.
Mental health care may involve more than one professional. When appropriate and with your authorization, we can coordinate with your therapist, primary care clinician, or other treating professionals.
We may recommend:
• Individual or specialized psychotherapy
• Medical evaluation for symptoms that may have physical causes
• Additional testing or specialist assessment
• A higher level of care when outpatient appointments are insufficient
Our services focus on psychiatric evaluation and medication management. When another service would better meet your needs, we’ll discuss appropriate next steps.
Start with an initial psychiatric evaluation, including if you already have a diagnosis or take psychiatric medication. This helps us understand your history and determine appropriate care.
New patients need an evaluation before prescribing decisions can be made. Established patients may need a follow-up appointment or monitoring before a refill is appropriate.
No. We’ll discuss recommendations and alternatives with you. Your preferences are part of treatment planning, and you can ask questions before deciding how to proceed.
Many evaluations and follow-up visits can take place through telehealth. Suitability depends on your clinical needs, prescribing requirements, and whether an in-person assessment or additional services are needed.
Follow-up timing is individualized. More frequent visits may be recommended when starting or changing treatment, while ongoing care depends on your progress and monitoring needs.
Visit our Pricing & Plans page for current self-pay fees and available care plans. Contact the practice before scheduling if you have questions about insurance participation or benefits.
You deserve an opportunity to discuss your concerns, understand your options, and participate in decisions about your mental health.
