What Is Telepsychiatry?
Telepsychiatry is psychiatric care provided through secure video appointments rather than traditional in-person office visits.
With telepsychiatry, you can meet with a psychiatric provider from a private location in Virginia without having to commute to an office.
Online psychiatric care can make it easier to stay consistent with treatment while balancing work, family, school, caregiving responsibilities, and other demands.
Bodhi Wellness provides telepsychiatry for adults throughout Virginia when clinically appropriate.
Psychiatric Services Available Online
Our psychiatric providers offer comprehensive virtual psychiatric care, including:
Psychiatric Evaluations
Your initial psychiatric evaluation provides an opportunity to discuss your current symptoms, mental health history, medications, previous treatment, medical history, and treatment goals.
Your provider will work with you to better understand your concerns and determine appropriate treatment recommendations.
Psychiatric Medication Management
Medication management involves ongoing monitoring of your psychiatric medications and symptoms.
Your provider may evaluate medication effectiveness, side effects, dosage, interactions, and changes in your symptoms over time.
Medication recommendations are individualized based on your psychiatric history, current symptoms, medical considerations, and treatment goals.
Ongoing Psychiatric Follow-Up
Mental health treatment is often an ongoing process.
During follow-up appointments, your provider will monitor your progress, discuss changes in symptoms, assess medication response, and make treatment adjustments when appropriate.
Our goal is to provide consistent psychiatric care rather than simply treating symptoms during a single appointment.

Your Privacy Matters
Your mental health care is personal.

For the best experience, we recommend attending your appointment from a private location where you feel comfortable discussing your mental health.
When Telehealth May Not Be Appropriate
​
Telehealth is not appropriate for every mental health situation.
If you are experiencing an immediate psychiatric emergency, are at imminent risk of harming yourself or someone else, or require a higher level of psychiatric care, emergency or in-person services may be necessary.
If you are experiencing an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
