Real availability, updated live.

Booking is a request — we confirm it, usually the same day. No referral needed.

How it works

Four steps, start to finish

1

Pick a time

Choose a slot that works for you and submit it. Booking is a request — we confirm it, usually the same day. No referral needed.

2

First appointment

About 60 minutes by video. Your history, current symptoms, what you have already tried, medical background, and what matters to you.

3

A plan you can read

You leave with a documented direction: what we believe is happening, what we recommend, and what we expect to change.

4

Follow-up

Around 30 minutes, every few weeks at first. This part is not optional — medication needs monitoring for safety and for effect.

What we treat

Conditions we work with

If you are not sure whether your situation is treatable, booking a first appointment is the right way to find out.

Anxiety and depression

Persistent worry, low mood, lost energy, reduced motivation. Medication managed carefully, with follow-ups that actually happen.

Trauma and PTSD

Post-traumatic stress disorder, and histories that have never been properly worked through. Prescribing that works alongside the therapy you are already doing.

Sleep and insomnia

Not sleeping, or never resting. We look at what is driving it before adding anything to the list.

ADHD

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, including adults diagnosed late or passed from provider to provider.

Mood fluctuations

Cycles that are hard to name. Part of the work is establishing a baseline you can trust.

Second opinions

A diagnosis you do not believe, or a plan that never quite worked. We start from your history, not the label.

Fit

Who this is for — and who it is not.

Being honest about both saves everyone time.

Book an appointment

Usually a good fit

  • Adults and teenagers who want structured medication management and a plan they can read.
  • People who have been passed between providers and want one person to hold the history.
  • Anyone who would rather pay directly than have a psychiatric diagnosis filed with an insurer.
  • People who cannot take a weekday morning off — evenings and weekends are the point.

Usually not the right service

  • Emergency or crisis stabilisation, daily support, or intensive outpatient care. Call 988 or 911 if you need help now.
  • Court reports, disability paperwork and forensic assessment.

Your provider

David Fairbanks, PMHNP-BC

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Board Certified.

David has spent 22 years in behavioral health. Seven years as a certified nursing assistant on a behavioral health unit, then fifteen as a registered nurse — through psychiatric hospitals, crisis care, detoxification, admissions, and behavioral health leadership. He now holds a Master’s in Nursing as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

He built Firefly Global LLC as a solo practice on purpose. What he kept seeing, over two decades, was not only a shortage of clinicians but a system that burns out the ones it has — administration, documentation, and broken handoffs taking time away from patients. This practice is deliberately small so that does not happen.

You should never have to guess what is happening with your own care. You will hear the clinical reasoning, the alternatives, and how progress will be measured.

Small on purpose. Not a platform, not a directory, not a rotating panel of whoever is available.

The same provider every time

Your history is held by one person, not reconstructed at each visit.

Deliberate prescribing

Adjustments come with a rationale. Side effects are treated as seriously as symptom improvement.

Evenings and weekends

Care that fits around work and school, rather than assuming you can take a weekday morning off.

Straight about cost

The full price is published on this page before you book, and you receive a written estimate before anything is charged.

Fees and payment

What it costs, before you commit.

Psychiatric care is expensive enough without having to guess. These are the full prices, published.

$150was $250Time limited

First appointment · 60 minutes

A full psychiatric evaluation. History, current symptoms, what you have already tried, and a plan you can read.

$120was $150Time limited

Follow-up · 30 minutes

Ongoing medication management. What is working, what is not, side effects, and any adjustment — with the reasoning explained.

Paying directly

The practice currently operates on a cash-pay basis. Payment is due at the time of service.

Insurance

Insurance access is being added. We are not putting a date on it until the contracts are signed. Leave a contact and we will get in touch the day it opens.

This opens a text message to the practice with your details ready to send. Send it and you are on the list.

Written estimate

Before your first appointment you receive a written Good Faith Estimate, as required by federal law for self-pay patients. Nothing is charged that was not estimated.

Receipts and cancellations

Every visit comes with an itemised receipt you can submit to your insurer. Please give at least 24 hours’ notice to change or cancel an appointment.

Questions

What people ask us first

What does it cost?

The first appointment is $150 for 60 minutes — a time-limited launch price, normally $250. Follow-ups are $120 for 30 minutes, normally $150. You are given a written Good Faith Estimate before your first appointment, so the figure is confirmed before anything is charged.

Do I need a referral?

No. You can book directly. If your therapist or doctor has suggested a psychiatric opinion, that is useful context to bring, but nothing needs to be arranged beforehand.

How soon can I be seen?

Appointments are available Monday to Friday in the evening and throughout the weekend. Submit a time and we confirm it, usually the same day.

Will I get medication at the first appointment?

Often, yes — when the picture is clear enough to prescribe safely. Where more information is needed, or where something needs checking first, a prescription may wait until the next appointment. Either way you will be told why.

Is it video only?

Yes. All appointments are by secure video, anywhere in California. There is no clinic to travel to.

Do you take insurance?

Not yet. The practice is currently self-pay. Insurance contracts are being worked on and we are not putting a date on it until they are signed. Leave your details and we will tell you the day it opens.

Do you see teenagers?

Yes. Care for adolescents includes appropriate coordination with parents or guardians, while keeping clinical confidentiality where it applies.

What about controlled substances?

These are prescribed only in limited circumstances, with careful documentation and monitoring. That is discussed openly at your evaluation so you know what to expect.

Do you do therapy, or only medication?

Both. Medication management is the core, and talking approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) can be part of your care.

What if I need to move an appointment?

Please give at least 24 hours’ notice. Confirmation and reminder messages make it straightforward to change a time.

If you need help right now

Firefly Global LLC is an outpatient practice and is not a crisis service. We do not provide emergency or crisis stabilisation, and messages are not monitored around the clock.

If you are in immediate danger or need urgent support, call or text 988 (the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or go to your nearest emergency room. You can also text HOME to 741741 to reach the Crisis Text Line.
