I am Matthew Appling, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing psychiatric care to adults throughout Florida and Georgia via telehealth.

I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing mental health support. My approach emphasizes compassionate, individualized care, open communication, and collaboration with each patient to develop treatment plans that address their unique needs and goals.

I have extensive experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals, including transgender and nonbinary patients. I recognize the importance of providing mental health care in an environment where patients feel safe discussing their experiences, concerns, and identities without fear of judgment or discrimination.

I strive to create an affirming and respectful therapeutic relationship with every patient, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or background. I value listening carefully, understanding each person’s individual circumstances, and supporting their mental health and emotional well-being.

My goal is to provide accessible, evidence-informed psychiatric care that helps individuals feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their treatment journey.
