Telesychiatry is the delivery of mental health treatment, including counseling and therapy, through state-of-the-art video teleconferencing. With our world more connected than ever before, and thanks to encryption and software portals that make it possible to create HIPAA-compliant remote connections between providers and patients, you are only an Internet connection away from a qualified mental healthcare provider. This book makes the case for telepsychiatry as an effective, lower-cost, more convenient and flexible alternative to in-person treatment for suitable clients. Even now, telepsychiatry is achieving wider mainstream acceptance. This is a trend that will only grow in the future - a future in which telemental healthcare will inevitably play a significant role.
