Mental Health Care in Massachusetts

Access gap in Massachusetts: Massachusetts has the highest per-capita mental health spending of any state, yet still faces new patient psychiatric wait times of 3–6 months in many areas — a disconnect between investment and accessible care that telehealth is uniquely positioned to solve.

Whether you are in Boston, a rural community, or anywhere in between, you can access board-certified psychiatric care from the comfort of home — via secure, HIPAA-compliant video. Check the scheduling portal for current appointment availability; most major insurance plans are accepted.
