Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is telehealth, and how does it work?
Telehealth allows you to meet with your psychiatric provider or therapist via a secure video call. It works exactly like a regular office visit, but you connect digitally using your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
Can a virtual psychiatrist prescribe my medications online?
Yes. Our licensed psychiatric providers can electronically send mental health and substance abuse prescriptions directly to your local pharmacy during your virtual visit. Please note that certain regulations require an initial in-person evaluation at our Tempe clinic before moving to remote care.
Is online therapy as effective as in-person care?
Yes. Clinical studies show that online psychiatric care and therapy offer the exact same clinical outcomes and success rates as traditional in-office visits, with the added benefit of reducing scheduling stress.
Is my telehealth session private and secure?
Absolutely. We prioritize your privacy by using the dedicated, encrypted MYIO Patient Portal. Your sessions are fully secure and entirely compliant with federal HIPAA medical privacy laws.
Does insurance cover online psychiatry and therapy?
Most major health insurance plans cover telehealth services similarly to standard, in-office behavioral health treatments. Contact us directly, and our intake team will gladly verify your insurance benefits for you.
