Barkat Ali, NP — Psychiatrist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Barkat!

I am a psychiatric mental health practitioner working across the lifespan. I focus on understanding your unique needs and creating a treatment plan that supports your mental health journey.

My focus

I help young adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD overcome crippling negative self-talk and reclaim their confidence, purpose, and joy by offering an integrative treatment approach that includes medication management, therapy, supplements, and lifestyle coaching.

My approach

I practice integrative and functional psychiatry by determining the underlying biological root cause of symptoms, listening to understand your concerns, and providing a personalized treatment plan.

My communication style

I will take a complete history, mental status exam, and assessment ending with a medical diagnosis. This will help create tailored treatment plan options for us to work through in follow-up sessions, as well as expectations of the patient-provider relationship. The initial consultation takes 60 minutes. We are available on weekends.

My journey to mental healthcare

I graduated from the Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences (LUMHS), with a Bachelor of Medicine and a Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS). I also obtained a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas. I completed my Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) from Northern Kentucky University.

My goals for you

I use a collaborative and empowering approach in setting goals with you, which requires sensitivity, realism, and patient-centered care.

Our first session

I employ a nonjudgmental, empathic, and warm approach to provide evidence-based care in a safe and supportive environment. We'll work together to understand your concerns and begin building a treatment plan that feels right for you.
