About Tele-health
Telehealth, which is also known as Telemedicine.Telehealth is the use of communications technologies to provide health care from a distance. These technologies may include computers, cameras, videoconferencing, the Internet, and satellite and wireless communications. Some examples of telehealth include:
- A “virtual visit” with a health care provider, through a phone call or video chat
- Sending your provider a message through your electronic health record (EHR)
- Watching an online video that your provider sent you
- Getting an email, phone, or text reminder for upcoming visits
A growing number of people are opting for telehealth to meet their mental health care needs. Online therapy enables an individual to meet with our therapist from nearly anywhere in the world, so long as they have a stable and secure internet or phone connection.
Online therapy has also been called teletherapy, distance counseling, telemental health, and internet therapy.
