Marsha Wheatley, MD

What has motivated me over the course of my career as a caregiver? I am a native Houstonian who grew up in a working-class community. Through curiosity and hard work, I was able to attend a university that included people of vastly different life experiences. I was molded by both communities to appreciate the commonalities of humanity. That broad exposure extended my empathetic spectrum to grasp the needs of the American diaspora.

I use a biopsychosocial approach to evaluate the patient. I gather patient history with a mindset that considers the neuroscience that chemically shapes mood, thoughts, and behavior. I am able to uncover factors that can inhibit psychological growth and development. I have experience in seeing how the social conditions of the œthen can influence the resiliency of the œnow. I appreciate, and am proficient in, advances in technology, but prioritize the analog relationship between doctor and patient.

Meeting people where they are. It is an old trope, but describes how one allows a patient to set the path forward. An open-ended interview is conducted with an open mind towards resolution. When being evaluated and treated by me, a patient can expect to be met in a cordial but professional manner. Treatments are discussed and considered based on the mental state of the patient and the clinical efficacy and scientific evidence of benefit. The patient is invited to ask questions and consider whether they wish to pursue the suggested treatment plan.

My practice focuses on medication management, which I typically offer in conjunction with supportive therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. Occasionally, I may determine that additional therapy is also needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome. In addition to general adult and geriatric psychiatry, my areas of interest include complex psychiatric and medical conditions, neuropsychiatric issues, and treatment-resistant cases. I enjoy using my medical expertise to solve difficult cases. I have an interest in exploring combined traditional psychiatric practice with complementary and holistic approaches to treatment, and I believe in keeping my patients healthy rather than only addressing illness.

I have been practicing for over 20 years in general adult psychiatry. I am board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and hold a certification in Elder Law, which I received through the Mitchell Hamline School of Law. I also have advanced training in psychopharmacology, earned with distinction. I received my medical degree from the University of Toledo, College of Medicine and Life Sciences, where I was given the outstanding medical student award by the Department of Head and Neck Surgery. I completed my internship with the Department of Family Medicine and my residency with the Department of Psychiatry, both at the University of Toledo, College of Medicine and Life Sciences.

Throughout my career, I have served as the Medical Director of two Community Mental Health Centers and as the Corporate Medical Director for a company providing neuropsychiatric and general psychiatric care to patients residing in nursing facilities. I have also been a preceptor for numerous universities and have trained advanced practice providers in psychiatry.

My practice focuses on child and adolescent medication management. I typically offer this in conjunction with supportive or emotionally focused therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. Occasionally, however, I may believe that additional therapy is needed and will ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome. I provide treatment plans that include holistic recommendations for diet, exercise, and educational and psychosocial/spiritual aspects of care. I am known for listening to and respecting patients' stories and walking them on a path of recovery and growth.

I am a staff psychiatrist at Talkiatry and am double board certified in child and adolescent psychiatry and adult psychiatry. I received my medical degree from the Boonshoft School of Medicine at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, and my Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Therapy from The Ohio State University. Prior to attending medical school, I practiced for 14 years in physical therapy with a specialization in children with developmental and neurological disabilities. I have held multiple positions in hospital and outpatient psychiatry, including community mental health, developmental and foster care settings, and medical director positions. I have also served as clinical faculty for both the Wright State Department of Psychiatry and the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine. I have a passion for the education of medical students, residents, and patients.

I am a double board-certified Child and Adolescent and Adult Psychiatrist specializing in the well-being of children, adolescents, and young adults. A staunch advocate for evidence-based approaches, I integrate lifestyle and pharmacological interventions to foster mental health resilience among my patients. I am particularly passionate about the shared decision-making model, which enhances patient empowerment and satisfaction by actively involving patients in their treatment plans. My approach is deeply holistic, informed by my training in integrative medicine and my personal commitment to wellness.

I currently serve in St. Louis, MO, where I am known for my dynamic leadership as a Medical Director and my robust clinical practice. Throughout my career, I have held pivotal roles, including Medical Director of Crisis Psychiatry Services at Mercy Hospital and key positions in several reputable outpatient clinics across the U.S. My clinical acumen spans a diverse range of settings, from private practice and crisis care to specialized programs in residential and educational institutions. Complementing my medical expertise, I hold a Juris Doctorate, with a focus on public health and social policy, which enriches my understanding of the legal and systemic aspects of healthcare.

My academic contributions are equally notable. I have developed educational curriculums that significantly improve health outcomes and have shared my expertise through numerous media appearances and professional talks. My commitment to medical education is reflected in my mentorship of nurse practitioners and my involvement in creating community psychiatry programs.

On a personal level, I practice wellness through nutrition, exercise, and travel with my family. My professional journey is driven by a commitment to optimizing mental health outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for my patients and their families.

My approach to care is patient-centered, holistic, empathic, evidence-based, and culturally competent. I value building trust and fostering an environment where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their care. I hold a special interest in college-age populations, women's and reproductive health, trauma-related care, nutritional psychiatry, and psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychopharmacology.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist with experience caring for patients across all age groups in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I earned my medical degree from Northeast Ohio Medical University and completed my psychiatry residency at OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital.

In the initial session, I take time to understand each patient's history, concerns, and goals. I carefully rule out underlying physical conditions that may impact mental health and cognitive functioning, and collaborate with patients to identify lifestyle changes that can support their well-being. Treatment plans are tailored, evidence-based, and designed to be practical and achievable.

I am board certified in Adult psychiatry. My approach to mental health is integrative, with the utilization of complementary and alternative treatments such as yoga, lifestyle changes, and nutritional interventions in addition to traditional medication management and therapy. I prefer to focus on the overall health and well-being of an individual, rather than just treating symptoms. My practice focuses on medication management along with elements of therapy from different modalities, such as supportive and cognitive behavioral therapy, that are patient-tailored. I understand the importance of psychotherapy and may ask to bring in a therapist into your treatment team to provide the best care and outcome. My clinical interests include depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, panic disorder, OCD, and ADHD.

After completing my undergraduate degree in Biology at Ohio Northern University, I received my medical degree from Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine.

I use a variety of therapeutic approaches (supportive, CBT, DBT, psychodynamic) in combination with medication management to help patients identify and develop treatment plans towards their own unique goals. Having worked with patients across their lifespans allows me to take a well-rounded approach to identifying issues with my patients, especially in family settings.

I am a double board-certified psychiatrist in Psychiatry and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I completed medical school in my home state at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine, where the focus on mind-body connection now fits seamlessly into holistically minded patient care. I then completed General Psychiatry residency and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry fellowship at the University of Colorado, where I was Chief Fellow focused on improving resident/fellow experiences and ensuring all medical students took a firm grasp of psychiatry into their futures. Prior to joining Talkiatry, I worked in a residential treatment center for teenagers with eating disorders, gaining significant experience with challenging patients and their families.

I treat patients of various ages, and in addition to medication management I am a strong proponent of therapy in various forms. My approach to the treatment of adults and children/adolescents incorporates the impact of various things such as family history of mental health/medical conditions as well as any adverse childhood experiences/trauma. In addition to screening for common conditions such as bipolar disorder, anxiety, and depression in all patients, I also emphasize the importance of screening for conditions that can manifest in childhood (such as ADHD, Autism) as well as first-episode psychosis in young adults. From the initial visit and onward, I prioritize a collaborative effort with my patients (and at times their families). In addition to medication adjustments, I emphasize the importance of optimizing additional tools such as therapy while making appropriate lifestyle changes. During every follow-up visit, I take care to ensure that the current treatment is not hindering my patient's progress in any way.

I am board certified in both General Psychiatry and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I completed my undergraduate studies at Stony Brook University and attended medical school at the American University of Integrative Sciences. I also hold an MBA from Davenport University. I completed my psychiatry residency training at Bergen New Bridge Medical Center, followed by a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center/Case Western Reserve University, where I served as Chief Fellow. Prior to joining Talkiatry, I trained and worked across a combination of various healthcare systems in New York, New Jersey, Ohio, and Kentucky.

FAQs

How does Talkiatry work?

Talkiatry is an online psychiatry practice designed to make high-quality mental health care more accessible. We’re 100% virtual, in-network with major insurance plans, and first appointments are typically available in days.

To get started, you’ll complete a quick online assessment to tell us what you’re looking for. We’ll match you with psychiatrists who are licensed in your state, in-network with your insurance, and experienced in treating your concerns. You’ll choose the clinician you’d like to work with.

Your first visit is an in-depth evaluation where your psychiatrist will listen, provide a diagnosis, and work with you to create a treatment plan tailored to your goals and preferences. You’ll continue seeing the same clinician over time, adjusting your plan as your needs evolve. Our team is always here to help with scheduling, insurance, and questions about your care.

Do you provide therapy?

Care at Talkiatry starts with psychiatry. If you already have a Talkiatry psychiatrist, they can refer you to one of our therapists if you’ve decided together that therapy is the right next step. However, you can’t see a Talkiatry therapist if you aren’t already seeing one of our psychiatrists.

What should I do if I’m having an emergency?

Talkiatry does not provide emergency care. If you or someone you know is in crisis, please visit your nearest emergency room, call 911, or call or text the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988.

How much will my visit cost?

The majority of our visits cost patients $25 or less after insurance*, but your exact out-of-pocket cost depends on your plan. The best way to get a clear estimate is to contact your insurance provider directly. Here’s what to ask them:

  • Do I have mental health benefits that include outpatient psychiatry?
  • Is Talkiatry in-network for my plan?
  • What’s my copay or coinsurance for outpatient psychiatry visits?
  • Do I have a deductible? If so, how close am I to meeting it?
  • Do I have an out-of-pocket maximum? If so, how close am I to reaching it?
  • Are virtual or telehealth psychiatry visits covered the same as in-person care?
  • Is prior authorization required for outpatient psychiatry?
  • Can you provide a cost estimate for an in-network psychiatry visit using CPT code 99204?
  • Can you provide a cost estimate for an in-network psychotherapy visit using CPT code 90833?

*Includes all patient costs from 9/24-9/25: copayment, deductible, coinsurance, and $0 payments. Excludes missed appt. fees.  Your medical visit costs can vary depending on insurance coverage.

What if I don’t want to take medication?

Psychiatrists are medical doctors, and medication is often part of how they treat mental health conditions. At Talkiatry, your psychiatrist will start by listening and discussing your options with you. Medication is always your choice, but if it’s not something you’re open to considering, we may not be the best fit for ongoing care at this time.

How do I know if Talkiatry can help me?

Talkiatry provides virtual, in-network psychiatric care for people struggling with mild to moderate mental health issues. Here’s what we can help with:

  • Anxiety
  • ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder)
  • Bipolar disorder
  • Child & adolescent care
  • Depression
  • OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder)
  • Pregnancy & postpartum care
  • PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder)
  • Substance use disorder

Our goal is to connect you with the best possible care for you. At your first visit, your doctor will confirm whether Talkiatry is the right fit. If they recommend in-person or higher-level care, they’ll guide you to the appropriate resources.

What if my insurance changes from United Healthcare?

Insurance changes are common, and we’re here to help. Talkiatry is in-network with thousands of plans. If your insurance changes, reach out to a Care Coordinator to update your information and confirm your coverage by calling 833-351-TALK (8255).

Do I still take the assessment if I’m already diagnosed with ADHD?

Yes. Our online assessment is an important part of how we match you with the right psychiatrist. Your first visit will include a thorough evaluation so your psychiatrist can confirm your diagnosis and tailor your treatment plan to your current needs.
