Husky Health Psychiatrist Serving Bridgeport, CT

Bridgeport has one of the highest Medicaid enrollment rates in Connecticut — and one of the biggest gaps in psychiatric providers who actually accept it. If you've been trying to find a Husky Health psychiatrist and keep hitting dead ends, Elite Health LLC is in-network and taking new patients. Sindhia Shyras, a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with nine years of experience, provides telehealth psychiatry across all of Connecticut. So you can get real psychiatric care from Bridgeport — without leaving home.

Husky Health Covers More Than You Might Think

Psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and telehealth visits are all covered under Husky Health. Connecticut's mental health parity law means your mental health coverage works the same as any other medical coverage — no lower tier. Most Husky A and Husky D members pay $0 or a small copay for mental health appointments. And if your plan requires prior authorization for ongoing medication management, our office handles that — you don't have to figure it out yourself.

No Referral, No Runaround

Under Husky Health, you don't need a referral to see a psychiatric specialist. That means you can book directly — no waiting for your primary care doctor to make a call, no extra steps in between. Call our office at 860-515-8689 or use the online booking link below and we'll get you scheduled. The first appointment is a full psychiatric evaluation, not a quick intake form. Sindhia wants to understand what's actually going on before building your care plan.

Conditions We Treat

Sindhia treats adults with depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, panic disorder, insomnia, and mood disorders. She also speaks English, Malayalam, Tamil, and Telugu — so language isn't a barrier if you're more comfortable in one of those. Bridgeport is a diverse city, and that matters in a mental health setting where being understood accurately makes a real difference.
