Telehealth Services Oak Park CA

During COVID-19, in order to protect your safety, as well as the safety of our staff, we are providing telehealth services to our patients near Oak Park CA until it’s safe to resume in-person appointments. Clients can now speak with our clinicians via video conferencing from their homes or a private space. Telemedicine is available for psychotherapy and psychiatry (medication management). Our experienced team of providers is dedicated to providing compassionate and efficient mental health care for patients during this challenging time. We will work with you to come up with a personalized treatment plan. Our office staff are working remotely as well and are always available to assist you.

While many of our patients have some experience using different types of platforms for telecommunication, we understand that for others there may be some time to become accustomed. In our experience, almost everyone has been able to find a way to feel comfortable and benefit from our services provided online. While some people choose to have their sessions over the phone, most patients and providers find that having a video connection is more beneficial in the therapeutic process. Also, insurance providers have policies that cover telepsychiatry and teletherapy conducted using video, but will not offer reimbursement for a phone appointment.

We’ve also created a page with many helpful coping resources that we’ll be updating over time. Please click the button below to access it.
