How do online psychiatry appointments work?
After you book a telehealth appointment, you meet your clinician over a secure video link at your preferred, scheduled time. Your first online visit will be a psychiatric evaluation. Based on that, your psychiatrist will prepare a treatment plan focused on your conditions with the right time follow-ups. To ensure a peaceful session experience, you only need a quiet space and a stable internet connection.
What mental health conditions are covered through telepsychiatry?
Our online psychiatry service covers a complete range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, and other related disorders. We offer complete psychiatric care through virtual therapy sessions, consultations, medication management, and more.
Do you accept insurance for virtual visits?
Yes, your telepsychiatry treatment is also covered by insurance. Brainpower Wellness Institute is in-network with multiple insurance companies, and many of them cover telepsychiatry services, with each plan’s benefits and prices being different. We recommend confirming your behavioral health coverage benefits before your appointment. We also offer out-of-network and self-pay options.
How much does a self-pay telepsychiatry visit cost?
Costs vary depending on the visit type and length; an initial evaluation typically costs more than a follow-up. Contact us for information regarding self-pay costs and to verify what your insurance covers.
Do you offer online ADHD treatment?
Yes. We provide online ADHD treatment. As it is mainly diagnosed in children, remote access can make it easier for them to get treatment in a safe, comfortable environment. However, ADHD in some may require in person visit for proper evaluation. Contact us today and know whether you can get treated online as per your symptoms or conditions.
Can a psychiatrist prescribe medication during an online visit?
Yes, often an online psychiatrist can prescribe and adjust medication and provide ongoing psychiatric medication management. Certain controlled medications may require additional verification or an in-person evaluation under federal and state telehealth rules. Your clinicians will explain what applies to your situation.
Is online therapy as effective as seeing someone in person?
Yes. At Brainpower Wellness Institute, we prioritize patients’ privacy. Our online visits take place on a confidential, HIPAA-secure platform. This ensures that your health information is protected at every stage.
Do I have to live in California to use your telepsychiatry services?
Yes. Because our providers are licensed in California, you must be physically located in California during your virtual visit. This applies to every online psychiatrist and therapist on our team.
What challenges does telepsychiatry solve?
One of the biggest barriers to accessing mental health services in the U.S. is the geography, economy, and ongoing stigma of seeking help. BPWIMH solves these challenges and makes it easy to access mental healthcare, lowering psychiatric care costs and improving patient outcomes.
How early does my treatment start?
Appointment booking is the first step before starting treatment. Just click on “Book Telepsychiatry Appointment”, and the form will appear. Fill out the necessary details and choose any specific time from the available slots that works for you, and submit it. Later, you will be notified via email or phone call about appointment scheduling. For a smooth experience, you can call us directly at (714) 712-0711. Our team will contact you and assist in scheduling an appointment as per your preferences. On the day and at the scheduled time, you will meet a psychiatrist, and the treatment begins.
Can children and teens be seen online?
Yes! Accessing treatment online is very beneficial for children to ensure comfort and engagement throughout the process. That’s why we provide telehealth psychiatry for children and adolescents with a parent or guardian involved for younger patients.
What should I do in an emergency between visits?
Telepsychiatry is not for emergencies. If you or someone else you love is in danger or experiencing a crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or dial 911. For non-emergency needs, you can contact us by calling (714) 712-0711 or submitting an online form.
Can I change an in-person appointment to a telepsychiatry appointment?
Yes, you may change your in-person appointment to a telepsychiatric appointment, but you need to inform us before the scheduled time. Contact our team for more information regarding changes in your appointment.
Is a child and adolescent psychiatrist available through telepsychiatry?
Yes, we have professional psychiatrists who have expertise in child and adolescent psychiatry. They help children and young people with emotional and behavioral problems, family dynamics, and mental health disorders by conducting sessions through telepsychiatry.
