“Dr. T is great! Super professional, very nice and a pleasure to see. Only complaint is that Thriveworks billing software can be a bit wonky, however. It can bill you as "self pay" even if you check "I have insurance" as your primary payment option. Not a fault of Dr. T's - just something to be mindful of!”

Getting to know Dr. Khadija Tuitt

Dr. Khadija Tuitt is a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 15 years of nursing experience in both acute inpatient and community outpatient psychiatric nursing. She earned her Doctorate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Dr. Tuitt specializes in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating individuals who suffer from a host of mental health issues.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My goal is to work in partnership with my patients using compassionate trauma-informed care as the cornerstone of treatment. It is important to me that my patients learn about what they are being diagnosed with along with available treatment options so that they can make a well informed decision about their care. We work together by developing an individualized treatment plan to help patients move from surviving to thriving.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I utilize medication management and psychotherapy to promote safety, healing, and stabilization of symptoms. My goal is to tailor your treatment plan by reviewing current symptoms, life changes, social and family history, and labs/diagnostic tests, to create an individualized plan of care based on your unique and individual needs. Once you book an appointment, you will receive an email within 24 business hours to join the patient portal and complete the paperwork process.

Don’t see your insurance?

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $300 for 60 minutes
Ongoing session: $250 for 30 minutes
  • Sliding scale: Offers lower out-of-pocket fees on an individual basis, typically based on your ability to pay
  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork

Saw Dr. Tuitt to explore ADHD treatment options. She was very thorough and very professional in explaining options and made me feel at ease that we will figure out a treatment that works best for me. She simply informs you of the possibilities and encourages you to not do anything that you are not comfortable with.
