Using a device like a computer or tablet for video conferencing or a telephone for texts or calls, you connect virtually to speak with a licensed therapist. Research shows that it can be just as effective as in-person sessions for various mental health conditions.  According to the American Psychiatric Association (APA), tens of thousands of mobile applications and digital health resources are available on demand to monitor and support mental health. These sources range from consumer-facing wellness apps to prescription digital therapeutics.
