Telehealth Services

What Is Telehealth?

Telehealth, also called telebehavioral health or telemental health, allows you to meet with a mental health professional through secure video and audio technology.

With telehealth, you can receive many of the same services available through in-person care, including:

• Individual therapy
• Family therapy
• Couples therapy
• Child and adolescent therapy
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
• Stress and anger management
• Psychological evaluations
• Medication management, when appropriate

Your therapist or provider will determine whether telehealth is appropriate for your specific needs.

Benefits of Telehealth Therapy

Virtual mental health care can make it easier to stay consistent with treatment while maintaining your privacy and routine.

Telehealth can help you:

• Save time by eliminating travel to and from appointments
• Access care from home or another private location
• Maintain flexibility around work, school, and family responsibilities
• Stay connected to treatment when getting to the office is difficult
• Continue care consistently without unnecessary interruptions
• Feel more comfortable in a familiar environment

For many people, telehealth removes some of the barriers that can make starting or continuing therapy difficult.

Telehealth Services Available

Depending on your individual needs and clinical recommendations, telehealth may be available for:

Not every service or appointment is appropriate for telehealth. Your provider will help determine the best format for your care.

Is Telehealth Right for You?

Telehealth may be a good option if you:

• Have a busy work, school, or family schedule
• Prefer receiving care from home
• Have transportation challenges
• Live farther from the office
• Want greater flexibility with appointments
• Need ongoing support but have difficulty attending in person
• Feel more comfortable beginning therapy virtually

All you need is a private space, a reliable internet connection, and a compatible device for your appointment.

What to Expect During a Telehealth Session

Your telehealth appointment is designed to feel as comfortable and supportive as an in-person session.

Before your appointment:

• Choose a quiet, private space where you can speak openly.
• Make sure your device is charged and connected to the internet.
• Use headphones if they provide additional privacy.
• Allow yourself a few minutes before the appointment to get settled.

During your session, you’ll meet with your therapist or provider through a secure video platform. You can discuss your concerns, work toward your treatment goals, and receive the same personalized attention you would expect from an in-person appointment.

Privacy and Security

Your privacy is an important part of mental health care. Our telehealth services use a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform designed to protect the privacy of your communication and personal health information.

For your own privacy, we also recommend participating from a quiet location where others cannot overhear your session.
