Virtual Behavioral Health Treatment

Virtual health, often referred to as telehealth, has been used in clinical settings for many years. There has been a recent rise in its use in many areas of medical practice since the COVID-19 pandemic. 


Virtual health is the use of two-way, interactive technology to provide health care and facilitate patient-provider interactions. In behavioral health, virtual health has the potential of helping with the significant treatment gap by making services more available and convenient.
