Telemental Health

Telemental health refers to providing mental health services remotely through technology such as video calls, phone sessions, or messaging. It allows individuals to access therapists, counselors, or psychiatrists without needing to visit a clinic in person. This approach can increase convenience, reduce travel time, and expand access, especially for those in rural or underserved areas. Telemental health maintains the same confidentiality and quality of care as in-person services when conducted properly. It is a flexible, effective way to support mental well-being, making professional help more accessible and adaptable to different needs.
