What is telepsychiatry?

What should I expect during a telepsychiatry appointment?

​​First, schedule your telepsychiatry by calling the office or booking online. When it’s time for your appointment, your provider connects with you through your phone, tablet, or computer—whatever’s easiest for you. Each appointment varies, but you can expect:

Medical history discussion

Your provider asks about your medical history, what medications you’re taking, and if there is a history of mental, emotional, or behavioral conditions in your family.

Psychiatric evaluation 

You’ll talk with your psychiatrist about your mental health, and how you’re feeling—whether you’re experiencing anxiety, phobias, hopelessness, or other symptoms that are impacting your productivity and quality of life.

Diagnosis

After your conversation, your provider makes a diagnosis and works with you to customize a treatment plan that suits your needs and lifestyle.

Treatment 

Your tailored treatment options may include medication, psychotherapy, counseling, and lifestyle changes.

Depending on the severity of your condition and how well your treatment is working, your provider maps out how often you should check in via telepsychiatry appointments.
