Cleburne is Johnson County's seat, a railroad town that became a bedroom community without ever admitting it. Plenty of Cleburne households split the difference - one commuter, one local job, kids in Cleburne ISD - and the calendar math of getting anyone to a Fort Worth specialist appointment never works. Forty minutes is close enough to visit us once, far enough to prefer video after.
Insurance we see from Cleburne: BlueCross and UHC employer plans, school-district TRS-ActiveCare, and Ambetter.
Getting seen: Telehealth for the routine, our Pantego clinic up Highway 174 and I-20 when in-person matters. Evening slots for the commuter half of the house.
In a crisis, call or text 988 any time. The public mental health authority for Johnson County is Pecan Valley Centers — a good option if you need immediate or low-cost local services beyond what we provide.

What to Expect at Lyte Psychiatry
Your first appointment is a full psychiatric evaluation — not a quick intake. Your provider spends 50–60 minutes reviewing your history, current symptoms, medications, and goals. By the end of the visit, you leave with a diagnosis, a specific treatment plan, and if medication is appropriate, a prescription sent to your local pharmacy the same day.
Follow-up visits are typically 20–30 minutes. They focus on how you're responding to treatment, any medication adjustments, and next steps. Most patients are seen monthly at the start of treatment, then less frequently once things are stable.
We work with a lot of patients who've had poor experiences with psychiatry before — rushed appointments, billing surprises, providers who never remember their history. At Lyte, we verify your insurance before your first visit, keep appointment slots open for urgent needs, and check in with you after every medication change — not just at your next scheduled follow-up — so you are never left adjusting on your own.
Who will I actually see in Cleburne?
You are matched with a specific, named clinician — not a rotating pool. Every provider you see is licensed to treat patients in Texas, where Lyte Psychiatry offers care.
