Telehealth Therapy Maryland

Across the nation, many counseling services are offering telehealth therapy as a convenient therapy option for their patients. Whether you’re on the go or unable to make it to a face-to face therapy session, telehealth therapy makes it possible to receive the help you need regardless of your situation. If you can access the Internet or a phone, you can continue with counseling and therapy.

Why Telehealth Therapy is Important to You

Health and public safety concerns can prevent many people from receiving in-person Maryland mental health and substance abuse services they need. That’s why Congruent Counseling is proud to be able to offer both in-person and telehealth services, using our HIPAA-approved EHR-based telehealth option. Telehealth therapy makes it possible for you to continue receiving the treatment from your own home or a location where you feel safe. You do not need to risk your health or the health of those you love in order to continue treatment and counseling in Maryland.

What is Telehealth Therapy?

Telehealth therapy basically refers to health-related services and information made available electronically through telecommunication tools. This can take many forms, including text, audio, video, and real-time time streaming appointments with providers. The technology may involve a combination of video conferencing, streaming media, wireless communications, and the internet.

Some people confuse the terms telehealth and telemedicine, but they are actually different. Telehealth provides a wider range of services that includes both your physical and mental health needs, while telemedicine focuses on more physical health issues and services.

Telehealth Therapy in Maryland

When it comes to therapy, telehealth typically involves streaming or telephone appointments with your counselor or therapist. Video streaming appointments mean that you and the counselor can see each other, which may be a better option for some, and which may be required for insurance to pay for the service. Also, keep in mind that Maryland law requires teletherapy to be provided by a counselor licensed in the State of Maryland, and while the client does not have to be a resident of Maryland, they must physically be in the state to receive telehealth therapy from our therapists.

Is it Private?

Here at Congruent Counseling, we know that your privacy as it relates to counseling and therapy is very important. That is why we use the HIPAA-compliant portal provided by our EHR, PIMSY. Using this particular portal means that your privacy is respected.
