What is Tele-therapy?
Tele-therapy is when a mental health therapist provides therapy through a live video connection over the internet or via telephone. You are provided the same treatment as you would if you attended an in-person session, it's just done through a computer! If you've ever used Skype on your computer or FaceTime on your iPhone, you've used the same type of technology teletherapy uses.
Potential Tele-Therapy Patients
Many different people can benefit from tele-therapy including children, teens, adults, families, and couples. People may be struggling with depression or anxiety, grief and loss, conflict within their families or with their partner, as well as a variety of other issues.
Insurance and Tele-Therapy
Due to the current COVID 19 public health crisis, tele-therapy is currently being covered by the majority of insurance companies. You will want to call the number on the back of your insurance card to ensure tele-therapy is covered. Charis is currently in-network with Aetna, BCBS, BCN, Cofinity, Priority Health, McClaren, Meridian, and Medicare. Your insurance may require a copay or co-insurance for tele-therapy as it does with in-person sessions.
