Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Treatment in Kentucky

PTSD is a disorder that develops in some people who have experienced a shocking, scary, or dangerous event.

In Kentucky, access to psychiatric care has historically been limited — Kentucky has one of the nation's highest rates of serious mental illness at 6.4% — well above the national average of 5.6% — yet ranks in the bottom 10 states for mental health provider availability, especially in Appalachian Eastern Kentucky. Hometown NP's telehealth model changes this by connectingKentucky residents directly with board-certified PMHNPs via secure video — no commute or waiting room.

Kentucky's telehealth parity law (KRS § 304.17A-138) requires health insurers to cover telehealth mental health services at parity with in-person services. Your standard mental health copay applies to your Hometown NP appointment. We accept Aetna, Cigna, Humana, Anthem in Kentucky. Self-pay is $150/session.
