Plenty of Cleburne households split the difference - one commuter, one local job, kids in Cleburne ISD - and the calendar math of getting anyone to a Fort Worth specialist appointment never works. Forty minutes is close enough to visit us once, far enough to prefer video after.
Insurance we see from Cleburne: BlueCross and UHC employer plans, school-district TRS-ActiveCare, and Aetna.
Getting seen: Telehealth for the routine, our Pantego clinic up Highway 174 and I-20 when in-person matters. Evening slots for the commuter half of the house.
In a crisis, call or text 988 any time. The public mental health authority for Johnson County is Pecan Valley Centers — a good option if you need immediate or low-cost local services beyond what we provide.

What to Expect at Lyte Psychiatry
Your first visit usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes. Your provider will ask about your symptoms, medical history, current medications and what you want help with. You will discuss possible diagnoses and treatment options together. If medication is appropriate, your provider can send the prescription to your pharmacy.
Follow-up appointments are usually shorter, often 20 to 30 minutes. These visits give you and your provider time to review side effects, discuss what has improved and decide whether your treatment needs to change.
Before your first appointment, our team checks your insurance benefits and explains the expected cost. You will continue seeing a consistent care team, and you can contact the practice if a medication concern comes up between scheduled visits.
Who will I actually see in Cleburne?
