I'd love to be your partner in patient care.
A real KAP collaboration for California-licensed therapists; not a remote prescriber at arm's length.
Why I built this
Many California therapists offering KAP have ended up working through remote-prescriber platforms. If that works for you, that’s great, but the model puts the prescriber at arm's length and naturally limits the engagement to candidacy review at intake, dosing approval, and not much else. When something changes mid-treatment, a new medication, a new symptom, a candidacy question, the back-and-forth is slow and the prescriber doesn't intimately know your patient. These details are especially important for the powerful experiences surrounding these medicines.
Blue Jay Psychiatry is the alternative: a local, communication-forward partner who actually knows the case and stays close to it across the entire KAP arc.
How collaboration works
The therapy is yours. Preparation, dosing-day work, integration — that's where the therapeutic engine runs, and where the patient's relationship already lives.
The medical side is mine, and I stay close to the case:
Initial medical intake and candidacy. Full medication review, relevant medical history, contraindications, dosing strategy.
Prescribing. Sublingual ketamine prescribed through SureScripts e-Rx to the pharmacy of the patient's choice.
Ongoing medication-management visits. I see the patient across the KAP arc — not just at the start. Each visit checks contraindications, side effects, the rest of the patient's medication picture, and whether ketamine remains the right call as treatment progresses. Ketamine is a sensitive medication; the point of these ongoing visits is to make sure it stays the right one.
Communication on shared clinical calls. When something needs discussion — a candidacy concern mid-cycle, a new medication, a plan change — the conversation happens between us, not through a ticket queue.
I do not attend dosing sessions. The collaboration shows up in medical oversight, accessibility, and how engaged the prescriber stays not in physical co-presence at every dosing.
Logistics
Geography. Greater Sacramento and Northern California. Visits happen via secure telehealth across the state. Patients located outside California cannot be seen.
Patient relationship. The patient remains your therapy patient. Blue Jay Psychiatry establishes a separate medical relationship for prescribing and medication management.
Fees. The patient pays Blue Jay Psychiatry directly for medical visits. You bill the patient separately for therapy. Blue Jay Psychiatry is cash-pay with a Superbill provided; no insurance billing on the medical side.
First step. A 20-minute intro call with me to walk through the model, discuss your typical caseload, and decide whether the collaboration is a good fit before any patient is referred in.
Common questions
Q: Are you accepting new collaborating therapists?
Yes, within capacity. The intro call (above) is where we figure out fit before any patient is referred.
Q:What's the typical patient pathway?
You identify a patient you think is a KAP candidate. You make a warm referral to me for an initial medical consultation. I evaluate candidacy, prescribe if appropriate, and continue medication- management visits across the KAP arc. We communicate directly on shared clinical decisions.
Q: How does pricing work for the patient?
Each provider bills the patient separately. My medical fee schedule is on the Services page; your therapy fees are yours. The patient understands they're seeing two providers in a coordinated arrangement.
Q: What if a patient I refer isn't a KAP candidate?
I'll say so in the initial consultation, and recommend alternative care — either at Blue Jay Psychiatry (medication-only management, or combined therapy + medication if that fits) or back to you with my clinical reasoning.
Q: Do you take insurance?
No. Blue Jay Psychiatry is cash-pay and I provide a Superbill for out-of- network reimbursement. Most PPO plans reimburse 50–80% of medical visits.
