Access quality mental health care from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Our telehealth services bring the same experienced providers and evidence-based treatment you would receive in our office directly to you through secure video sessions.
Is Telehealth Right for You?
- Prefer the comfort of home
- Transportation or mobility challenges
- Live in a rural area
- Busy schedule requiring flexibility
- Health concerns limiting travel
How It Works
We use a HIPAA-compliant video platform. Once a telepsych session is scheduled, you will receive an email with a link to click to enter your secure session at the time of the appointment. Works on any device on which you have email – computers, tablets, smartphones. Available throughout the state of Pennsylvania.
Insurance
At the present time, commercial insurances and Medicare cover telepsych sessions with the same policies and copays as in person sessions.
How is this different from larger telehealth-only companies?
Our services differ from those of the “big box” telehealth companies in several ways.
- Our staff of providers has been carefully cultivated through professional networking, in person interviews, and careful vetting, a process the large national companies cannot replicate. Our clinical staff is comprised of only experienced and well-trained professionals.
- Our therapists understand the culture and social climate of Western Pennsylvania because we live here too.
- Our therapist are able to easily provide referrals or collaborate with local professionals such as teachers and physicians, when needed and with your permission, to provide the best care for you.
- Have a billing or scheduling question? You have the opportunity to connect with our office manager, who works only with our patients and can give personal attention to your questions.
- Feel like an in person meeting will enhance your comfort and trust in your therapist? Many patients begin care with one or two in person sessions to get to know their therapist, before switching to telepsych sessions to maximize convenience.
