FAQs

Telepsychiatry applies the modern technology of video call appointments to the traditional practice of psychiatry, facilitating mental health treatment with greater convenience.

Just like in person visits, Healthy Self Mental Wellness treats a variety of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and sleep disorders. You will be connected with a licensed provider that can provide treatment plans and medicinal recommendations for specific conditions.

Healthy Self Mental Wellness is exclusively telehealth. This allows us to provide convenient care to clients anywhere in the states that we serve.

You will need a device that allows you to make video calls. This can be a computer, tablet, or a smartphone. Whatever device you use will need to have a stable internet connection, camera, microphone, and a speaker.

Absolutely. Healthy Self Mental Wellness adheres strictly to HIPAA privacy rules and standards of integrity to ensure that your telehealth appointments are fully confidential and our electronic health systems are highly secure. Clients received the same level of protection and privacy as they would in person.
