Dr. Montenegro is board-certified in adult psychiatry and in child and adolescent psychiatry.

Meet with your psychiatrist through our secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform while you are physically located in Wyoming. Your physician takes the time to understand your symptoms, medical and psychiatric history, current circumstances, previous treatment, and long-term goals.
Receive clear, evidence-based treatment recommendations tailored to your needs. When appropriate, we provide ongoing medication management and collaborate with your existing Wyoming primary care provider, pediatrician, therapist, psychologist, or other members of your treatment team.
Access to psychiatric specialists can be challenging when the nearest appropriate provider is hours away. Telepsychiatry allows Wyoming patients to receive physician-led specialty mental health care from home while maintaining the same emphasis on careful evaluation, continuity, and individualized treatment.
For children and adolescents in particular, virtual appointments can also reduce missed school, time away from work for parents, and the logistical burden of traveling across the state for specialty appointments.
Montenegro & Associates Behavioral Health accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield plans (except Premera), subject to individual plan and network eligibility, and otherwise operates primarily as an out-of-network psychiatric practice.
For patients whose plans we are out-of-network with, we provide comprehensive, itemized medical superbills through our secure patient portal. Many patients use these documents to request partial reimbursement through their insurance plan's out-of-network behavioral health benefits.
Our office can also submit eligible superbills on your behalf through Reimbursify at no additional cost to you.
Because insurance benefits and provider networks vary by plan, we recommend contacting your insurance carrier directly to confirm your behavioral health benefits and any applicable deductible, coinsurance, or out-of-network reimbursement. Current fees and plan participation are listed on our Fees & Insurance page.
