Psychiatry telehealth means meeting with a licensed prescriber by secure video instead of in an office. At Anywhere Clinic you book online, have a first visit of about 30 to 40 minutes with a psychiatrist (MD/DO), psychiatric nurse practitioner, or physician assistant, and, when it is clinically appropriate, any prescription is sent electronically to your pharmacy. Self-pay is $150 per visit (new and follow-up), and we take insurance where we're in network. Our clinicians are licensed in 47 states and D.C. Check your insurance or book a visit above.
During a telehealth appointment, your provider conducts a clinical interview, reviews your symptoms and medical history, and develops or adjusts your treatment plan. See online psychiatric evaluations for what the first visit covers, or our online psychiatrist page for the full service.
Prescriptions are never guaranteed. Your provider decides what is appropriate for you, and controlled substances may require an in-person visit under the Ryan Haight Act. Federal telehealth rules for controlled substances are temporary through Dec 31, 2026 and may change. Read more in can an online psychiatrist prescribe medication?.
The technology requirements are minimal: a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera and microphone, plus a stable internet connection. See our privacy policy for how your information is handled. Rescheduling is free with 24 hours' notice.
