Telehealth

Telehealth allows you to get mental health care remotely, without leaving the comfort of your home. At Kema Health Services, skilled psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner Josyane Kengni, PMHNP, and the other specialists provide expert support for anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and other mental health concerns through telehealth. The practice is based in Frederick, Maryland, and serves the entire state, so call the office or click the online booking feature to make your telehealth appointment now. 

What is telehealth?

Telehealth refers to mental health care using digital connections. While Kema Health Services provides exemplary mental health care in the Frederick, Maryland office, some patients need to or just prefer to stay home while they get the treatment they need. 

To meet your needs, the practice provides outstanding virtual mental health care using electronic devices and the internet. Patients throughout Maryland can opt for telehealth if desired. 

How does telehealth mental health care work?

Telehealth involves connecting your computer, tablet, or smartphone to a reliable internet connection. You’ll visit a secure and private virtual waiting room a few minutes before your appointment. There, you’ll meet your mental health care provider via live video chat.

The visit isn’t different from being in the Kema Health Services office. You’ll discuss your mental health challenges, ask questions, get guidance, and talk about your treatment goals. 

If you need or already take medication for depression, anxiety, or another mental health disorder, your telehealth appointment can include medication management. With medication management, your specialist prescribes and oversees the use of medication to relieve symptoms.

Telehealth psychotherapy and medication management provide much of the same experience as office-based care. You can alternate the two types of visits if you wish. 

What are the benefits of telehealth?

Telehealth at Kema Health Services offers some great benefits, including: 

• Access to mental health care from anywhere in Maryland 
• Convenient appointment times
• Time savings because there’s no drive to the office 
• Money savings (no transportation or babysitter costs) 
• High-quality mental health care in the place you feel most secure and comfortable
• Complete privacy as you discuss your mental health 

Kema Health Services believes that mental health care is crucial medical care that you need to stay healthy. The specialists make this type of medical care as accessible and easy as possible by offering telehealth visits. 

If you’re considering seeing an expert for mental health care, telehealth can be an ideal way to get help without leaving your home. Kema Health Services offers telehealth visits Monday through Saturday. Call the office or schedule an appointment online to get the accessible help you deserve.
