What Is Online Psychiatry?

Modern psychiatric care has evolved to meet the changing needs of patients who have busier lives and greater access to technology. Online psychiatry, also known as telepsychiatry or online therapy, allows you to connect with our experienced psychiatric professionals through secure video appointments. We use HIPAA-compliant technology to conduct comprehensive assessments for mental health conditions and provide ongoing treatment and medication management, all through virtual sessions. This approach maintains the same high standards of compassionate care you’d receive in person while offering greater flexibility and convenience.

What Are the Benefits of Online Psychiatry?

Online psychiatric services provide numerous advantages for Denver residents seeking mental health care. Through secure video sessions, you can receive comprehensive psychiatric care from the comfort of your home or office, eliminating travel time and reducing barriers to consistent treatment. These services prove particularly valuable when you’re juggling family responsibilities or stuck at work longer than you expected. Weather or physical abilities aren’t hurdles to overcome when you don’t have to drive. 

Virtual appointments are also helpful for those who experience anxiety related to leaving home or visiting medical offices. Online therapy sessions make it easier to take the first step toward mental wellness.

Our virtual appointments allow us to provide:

Comprehensive mental health evaluations and neuropsychological testing by clinical psychologists that thoroughly assess your symptoms and concerns

Medication management services to ensure your treatment plan remains optimized and effective

Ongoing support for various mental health conditions—including anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder—and help with difficult life transitions

Mind-body exercises with trained health coaches

Easier, regular check-ins to monitor progress

Flexible scheduling options that work around your commitments, reducing the stress of commuting to appointments

Support and ease of access for Spanish-speaking patients with bilingual service offerings

Is Telehealth Psychiatry as Effective as In-Person Psychiatry?

You might wonder about the effectiveness of online psychiatric care. Research consistently shows online psychiatric services are just as effective as in-person visits. Our Denver patients find that connecting with a provider from home or a comfortable space helps them feel more relaxed and open during sessions, which often leads to more productive conversations about their mental health journey.

Even though we’re talking via a screen, our providers maintain a personal connection with the people we work with, which is one factor that’s essential for effective psychiatric care. Many people tell us they appreciate being able to focus on their treatment options without the added stress of physically getting to appointments.
