Telepsychiatry Services in New York City

What is Telepsychiatry?

Telepsychiatry is an innovative solution that facilitates mental health consultations from the comfort of your home. It is particularly useful for individuals juggling busy schedules, or those who prefer the convenience of remote consultations. With a secure internet connection, you can now consult Dr. Stracks for diagnosis and treatment of various mental health conditions, including substance abuse issues.

Why Choose Telepsychiatry?

Opting for our telepsychiatry services offers multiple benefits such as:

• Flexibility to consult from anywhere
• Eliminates stress related to commuting
• An excellent option in light of current public health considerations, such as the Covid-19 pandemic

Treatment Scope and Limitations

While telepsychiatry has broad applications, there are certain limitations compared to in-person visits. Dr. Stracks is committed to delivering the highest standard of care and will inform you if a telepsychiatry approach is suitable for your specific condition.

In-Person Visits

Dr. Stracks believes in a holistic approach to mental health. Therefore, periodic in-person visits are recommended and will be scheduled based on your individual needs and treatment progress.

Insurance and Payment Options

For our New York practice, we are unable to accept insurance specifically for telepsychiatry sessions. However, in our Connecticut branch, some insurance plans may cover telepsychiatry consultations. Dr. Stracks will discuss insurance coverage and payment options suited to your needs.

Telepsychiatry: A Safe and Secure Option

Rest assured, the privacy and confidentiality of your telepsychiatry sessions are our utmost priority. Dr. Stracks uses secure and HIPAA-compliant audio-visual platforms to ensure that your remote consultations are as safe as in-person visits.

How to Get Started with Telepsychiatry
