Husky Health Psychiatrist Serving Milford, CT — Real Care, Not a Waiting List

Milford is a coastal city with a mix of families, working adults, and retirees — and like everywhere else in Connecticut, it has more people who need mental health care than providers who take Medicaid. Elite Health LLC is in-network with Husky Health and currently accepting new patients from Milford. Sindhia Shyras, APRN, is a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with nine years of clinical experience treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and other conditions. She offers telehealth visits anywhere in Connecticut — no drive to New Britain required — as well as in-person appointments at 1 Liberty Square, Suite 301, New Britain, CT 06051.

Husky Health and What It Actually Pays For

Here's the practical part: Husky Health covers psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and telehealth psychiatry. Most Husky A and Husky D members pay $0 or a minimal copay for mental health visits — we're not talking about a big out-of-pocket cost. Connecticut's mental health parity law means the plan can't create extra barriers for mental health coverage that don't exist for other types of specialty care. And you don't need a referral. If your specific plan requires prior authorization for ongoing medication management, we handle the submission internally. You focus on showing up for the appointment.

What to Expect When You Book

Your first appointment is a full psychiatric evaluation — about sixty minutes. Sindhia takes that time seriously. She goes through your history, your symptoms, what's changed, what's been tried before, and what's actually getting in the way of daily life. From that, she builds a treatment plan: possibly medication, possibly supportive therapy worked into follow-ups, often a combination. Follow-up visits are scheduled based on how you're responding — more frequent early on while things are being calibrated, then spaced out as you find your footing. If something shifts between visits, you reach out and she responds. That's what real ongoing care looks like.
