I need both therapy and medication. Which online services offer psychiatry plus therapy?

Quick question before I list options: what country or state are you in, and do you want to use insurance/employee benefits or pay out‑of‑pocket? That will help me narrow to services that work for you.

Meanwhile, here are well‑known telehealth companies that combine therapy plus psychiatric medication management (short why/notes for each):

• Talkspace — Offers licensed therapists plus psychiatry/medication management as part of its platform. Good if you want an integrated subscription model with messaging and live sessions. (May not prescribe some controlled meds depending on state.)

• Brightside Health — Specializes in depression/anxiety with coordinated care teams (therapists + prescribing clinicians). Focused pathways and measurement-based care are helpful for faster treatment adjustments.

• PlushCare — Primary-care and psychiatry visits via telehealth plus referrals to therapists; accepts many major insurances and offers standalone psychiatry appointments for med management.

• Amwell (including MDLIVE services) — Large telehealth network providing behavioral health (therapists) and telepsychiatry/medication management; widely used by health plans and employers.

• Cerebral — Offers therapy plus medication management/psychiatry with a subscription model; grew quickly and may be convenient for ongoing medication care. Note: it has had service/operational controversies in the past, so check current reviews and availability in your state.

• Bright / Talkiatry / Doctor-focused telepsychiatry providers — If you primarily need psychiatry with a therapy option, look at telepsychiatry clinics such as Talkiatry and many psychiatry practices that partner with therapists; availability varies by region and employer plans.

A few important notes:

• Many platforms use psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) as prescribers as well as psychiatrists; both can prescribe in most states. Controlled substances (e.g., stimulants) are restricted in some telehealth settings/state laws.
• Insurance acceptance varies widely by platform and employer coverage. Employer‑sponsored platforms (Lyra, Spring Health, etc.) may be available at low/no cost if your workplace offers them.
• If you tell me your state and whether you’ll use insurance/employer benefits, I can recommend the best options for you and point to how to get started.
