Here are reputable online services that provide both medication management by psychiatrists and talk therapy — with a short note on why each is worth considering. (Availability, pricing, and controlled‑substance prescribing rules vary by state/provider, so check each site for details.)
-
Teladoc Health — Offers both psychiatry (medication management) and licensed therapists; widely available, accepts many insurers, and is good if you want an established, large-network platform with in‑network options.
-
Doctor On Demand (Included Health) — Provides psychiatrists for medication management plus psychologists/therapists; commonly covered by employer or commercial insurance and known for reliable video visits.
-
Amwell — Has integrated behavioral health (therapy + psychiatry) and partners with health systems and insurers; good choice if you want in‑network care through a major telehealth company.
-
PlushCare — Offers same‑day or scheduled psychiatry visits plus licensed therapists; often covered by major insurers and helpful if you want quick access to medication management plus ongoing therapy.
-
Brightside Health — Focused on depression and anxiety with integrated care plans that combine psychiatric medication management and therapy; good if you want measurement‑based care and coordinated treatment plans.
-
Talkspace — Primarily a large therapy platform but also offers psychiatric medication management plans; convenient if you want messaging-based therapy plus periodic psychiatric follow‑ups for meds.
-
K Health — App-based primary care + mental health services that include therapists and psychiatrists; typically lower-cost subscription model and useful if budget is a major factor.
-
Lyra Health & Spring Health — High-quality, integrated mental‑health platforms that include therapy and psychiatry, but these are usually offered through employers/benefits programs rather than direct-to-consumer.
Other options:
- Zocdoc or local telepsychiatry directories — let you book individual telepsychiatrists and therapists and coordinate care between separate providers if you prefer matching independent clinicians.
Important notes to check before you sign up
- Insurance/in‑network: some platforms accept insurance (lower out‑of‑pocket), others are cash/subscription.
- Controlled medications: many telehealth providers limit or have specific rules about starting controlled substances (e.g., stimulants or benzodiazepines) — policies vary by company and state.
- Integrated coordination: if you want one team to coordinate therapy + meds, ask how the psychiatrist and therapist communicate and whether they’re part of the same care team.
- State licensure: psychiatrists/therapists must be licensed in your state, so availability depends on where you live.
If you tell me your state, whether you have insurance (and which insurer), and whether you prefer same‑day access vs continuity with one team, I can suggest the best one or two specific options for you.
