About Me
Consultation Request

If you find yourself retreating from your usual activities and you want to get back to truly living, I'd like to help. I am a board-certified Psychiatrist, and I am looking for patients who are ready for a change. I enjoy working closely with people, and getting to know their preferences and needs before advising treatment (therapy, medications, or both). Since medications can have risks and benefits, I am always very mindful and careful.

Board Certification: American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology

Please note that I see patients only on Wednesdays. Since it is a small, part-time practice, I've decided to focus on my relationship with you, rather than on insurance-related distractors. So I do request payment at the time of service. If you have out-of-network benefits, I can provide paperwork so you can seek reimbursement. Thank you for understanding.

Get started: request a consultation with Debra Forrest, MD

This form helps prospective patients/clients and clinicians connect more efficiently and explore whether the requested relationship will be a good fit. As clinician skill sets, availability, and financial policies vary, this form helps ensure you find the right clinician for your needs.

If you are or believe you are experiencing a medical or psychiatric emergency, including suicidal or homicidal thinking, side effects to medication, or any other urgent or time-sensitive matter in which you need an immediate response, do not use this service. Instead call 911 or go to your closest emergency room.

This request is not an emergency or urgent matter. I wish to proceed
