Beacon Behavioral Partners Expands Network with Northeast Florida Psychiatric Association

PLANO, TX (August 18, 2026) — Beacon Behavioral Partners (BBP), a growing national network of independent psychiatric practices, today announced its partnership with Northeast Florida Psychiatric Association (NFPA), a leading outpatient psychiatry practice serving patients throughout the Daytona Beach and Northeast Florida region. This new partnership deepens a connected network of high-quality psychiatric practices in the area, providing the latest in treatment research and quality patient care.

For more than 14 years, Dr. Gary Frick has built a reputation for delivering personalized psychiatric care, helping patients navigate a wide range of mental health conditions through evidence-based treatment and compassionate clinical expertise. The practice offers a comprehensive range of outpatient behavioral health services, including psychiatric evaluations, medication management, psychotherapy, Spravato treatment, GeneSight pharmacogenomic testing, and Suboxone treatment for opioid use disorder.

“At Beacon, we seek partnerships with physicians who have built outstanding practices centered on patient care and support,” said Rob Jardeleza, Chief Executive Officer of Beacon Behavioral Partners. “Dr. Frick has earned the trust of his patients and community through clinical excellence and a compassionate touch. We are excited to support the continued growth of the practice while ensuring Dr. Frick and his team can remain focused on what matters most—delivering exceptional care.”

NFPA joins Beacon’s expanding community of partner-led practices committed to improving behavioral healthcare while preserving clinical independence. By joining the Beacon network, the practice will continue operating under its trusted brand and clinical leadership while benefiting from Beacon’s operational support, strategic resources, and collaborative network of behavioral health providers.

“Partnering with Beacon allows us to continue growing without compromising the personalized care our patients have come to expect,” said Dr. Gary Frick. “With Beacon’s support, we’ll be able to expand access to innovative technology, enhance our service offerings, and continue meeting the growing behavioral health needs of patients throughout Northeast Florida without compromising the quality of care that defines our practice.”

The partnership builds on Beacon’s continued investment in Florida, where the organization already supports Tampa Neuropsychiatry (TNP) and SunCoast Psychiatry. Earlier this year, TNP expanded its reach with the opening of a new Palm Harbor location under the leadership of Dr. Faizi Ahmed, further demonstrating Beacon’s commitment to increasing access to high-quality behavioral healthcare throughout the state. BBP plans on developing additional locations with FL partners in the coming year. By developing a connected Florida platform of leading independent practices, Beacon creates opportunities for clinical collaboration, operational excellence, and sustainable growth across multiple markets.
