Josefina Sta Romana, MD

To help me determine the best way I can help you, I want to get to know you from all angles, using a biopsychosocial approach, to avoid a cookie-cutter treatment plan. You are a unique individual with unique needs . Your physical health, relationships, family background, finances, academic andor occupational functioning, and significant life events, play a part in how you're feeling right now. I want to understand all these factors first before I come up with my treatment recommendations. I am not a paternalistic therapist by any means ( though some people may like that). We shall work together on our common goals of reducing your distress and promoting your good health and emotional well-being.

I see clients online for psychotherapy andor medication management through telepsychiatry sessions with live audio and video. For those of you who have never tried it, I assure you the expected standard of care for telepsychiatry is the same as the standard of care for traditional in-person appointments. I help clients in the following states where I am licensed: Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, Ohio , Pennsylvania, Indiana, Rhode Island, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. I do not prescribe controlled substances like stimulants for ADHD and benzodiazepines for anxiety and sleep. Your privacy is of utmost importance to me. I only use HIPAA compliant video conferencing platforms with electronic prescribing and instant messaging capabilities. The computer I use for my online sessions is protected by a secure firewall and 2 anti-virus software suites. I regularly scan my computer to check for viruses, spyware, and malware. The fax service I use is also HIPAA compliant. Sorry , I am not a network provider for any health insurance plans. If your insurance covers out-of-network providers, I can provide you with documentation to submit to your insurance company for partial reimbursement.
