Frequently Asked Questions

Telepsychiatry is a type of telehealth service where psychiatric care is provided remotely using secure video or phone sessions. You meet with a licensed mental health provider from the comfort of your home, receiving the same quality care as an in-person visit. Sessions are conducted through HIPAA-compliant platforms that protect your privacy and confidentiality.

Through telepsychiatry, you can receive comprehensive mental health services, including initial psychiatric evaluations, medication management, psychotherapy and counseling, crisis intervention, and ongoing support.

Most services available in-office can be delivered effectively through telepsychiatry services. Your provider will determine if your specific needs are appropriate for virtual care during your consultation.

Yes. Studies and clinical experience show that the telepsychiatry service is equally effective for most patients. Many patients find that virtual care improves consistency, comfort, and accessibility.

You only need basic technology that most people already have: a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera and microphone, plus a reliable internet connection. No special software downloads or technical expertise is required. Our team provides simple instructions for connecting to your appointment, and we're available to assist if you have any questions.

Telepsychiatry sessions are highly secure and private. We use HIPAA-compliant, encrypted video conferencing platforms specifically designed for healthcare. Your personal health information and session content are protected with the same rigorous security standards as in-person visits. We recommend conducting your session in a private space where you can speak freely without being overheard.

Yes, our online psychiatrist can prescribe medications during telepsychiatry appointments just as they would during in-person visits.

Prescriptions are sent electronically to your preferred pharmacy. Certain controlled substances may have restrictions depending on state and federal regulations, which your provider will discuss with you if applicable. Medication management and adjustments can be effectively handled through telehealth.

Most insurance plans now cover telepsychiatry services at the same rate as in-person appointments. Coverage expanded significantly in recent years, with many insurers recognizing telehealth as equivalent to traditional office visits. We recommend verifying your specific benefits with your insurance provider. Our office can assist with insurance verification and will provide information about coverage and any out-of-pocket costs before your appointment.
