Telehealth Psychiatric Care in Vermont

Vermont has fewer than 60 practicing psychiatrists for its entire population of approximately 645,000 people. The state's rural character — with no major metro areas outside Burlington — makes telehealth the primary access point for psychiatric care for the majority of Vermonters.

Hometown NP's board-certified PMHNPs are licensed in Vermont and see patients via HIPAA-compliant video telehealth — from the comfort of their own home, office, or any private space with an internet connection. Vermont law (8 V.S.A. § 4100k) requires health insurance plans to cover telehealth mental health services at parity with in-person services. Your standard mental health benefit applies to your Hometown NP appointment.

We accept Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare in Vermont. Self-pay is available at $150 per session.
