There’s no single “best” telehealth for everyone — the right one depends on whether you want medication management (including stimulants), therapy, integrated care, insurance coverage, and how fast you need care. Below are several well-regarded options and what each is best for if you’re an adult with ADHD plus anxiety:
- Done (DoneHealth)
- Best if: you want an ADHD-focused, medication-first program with clinicians experienced in adult ADHD.
- Why: specialty ADHD clinics streamline assessment and ongoing med management (including stimulant and non‑stimulant options where permitted) and they’re set up to manage common comorbid anxiety.
- Talkiatry
- Best if: you want board-certified telepsychiatrists who treat ADHD and anxiety together.
- Why: telepsychiatry model with psychiatrists focused on medication management for complex, comorbid presentations; often accepts insurance and offers coordinated care.
- PlushCare
- Best if: you want flexible primary/psychiatry telehealth that covers medication management and therapy referrals.
- Why: has psychiatrists and therapists available, can prescribe anxiety meds and — in many states and when appropriate — stimulants. Good for combined med + therapy care.
- Amwell (Behavioral Health)
- Best if: you want access to licensed psychiatrists and therapists through a large telehealth platform.
- Why: wide provider network, accepts many insurances, can treat ADHD and anxiety with combined psychiatry + therapy options.
- Brightside Health
- Best if: your main concern is anxiety/depression with comorbid ADHD or you prefer an integrated therapy + med-management program.
- Why: focuses on evidence-based care for anxiety/depression and offers psychiatry + therapy; some programs include ADHD assessments/treatment depending on availability.
- BetterHelp / Talkspace (therapy) + separate psychiatry for meds
- Best if: you primarily want therapy for anxiety (CBT, ACT) while getting meds from a psychiatric telehealth service.
- Why: therapy platforms have broad therapist networks for anxiety and coping strategies; combine them with a telepsychiatry service above if you need stimulant prescribing.
Important practical notes
- Stimulant prescribing is regulated: some platforms won’t start stimulant medications via telehealth or have state-by-state restrictions. Always confirm prescribing policies for your state.
- Ask about: provider type (psychiatrist vs psychiatric NP/PA), experience with adult ADHD + anxiety, whether they offer combined therapy + medication, wait times, costs, and insurance acceptance.
- If you want, tell me your state (or whether insurance/cost is important) and I can narrow this to the best options available where you live.
