- Talkiatry - Psychiatrist-led (not just therapists), accepts many major insurers, known for thorough evaluations
- Cerebral - Has faced some scrutiny but has stabilized; accepts some insurance, worth verifying your plan

Tips Before Choosing
- Call your insurance first to get a list of covered telehealth providers
- Ask specifically if they prescribe stimulant medications (some platforms are restricted)
- Look for board-certified psychiatrists, not just nurse practitioners
- Check if they do proper evaluations vs. quick questionnaires
The regulatory environment for online ADHD prescribing has tightened, so always verify current availability in your state.
