What Anxiety Treatment Looks Like Through Telehealth

Your first appointment is a comprehensive clinical evaluation, typically 45 to 60 minutes. Your provider reviews your history, current symptoms, prior treatments, and the impact anxiety is having on your daily life. This evaluation informs the treatment approach.

For many patients, treatment involves medication management with non-controlled medications such as SSRIs or SNRIs — effective first-line treatments for anxiety that can be prescribed via telehealth in South Carolina. Prescriptions are sent electronically to your preferred pharmacy in Spartanburg.

Our approach is integrative — we consider sleep quality, exercise, nutrition, caffeine, alcohol, and other lifestyle factors that substantially influence anxiety alongside medication when it is indicated.

What the Research Says About Telehealth for Anxiety

Multiple clinical trials have found that telehealth delivery of psychiatric evaluation and medication management for anxiety is equivalent in effectiveness to in-person care. The American Psychiatric Association and the Anxiety and Depression Association of America both recognize telehealth as a standard mode of care for anxiety disorders.
