Telehealth Appointments
Telehealth appointments as Prescribed by your Salience Health Provider
We are excited to announce that our clinics will officially begin transitioning back to in-person visits! Telehealth was a temporary solution during the pandemic to allow our patients to continue receiving care under social distancing guidelines. Telehealth was never intended to be a way to care for our patients long-term. Most people have returned to their everyday lives and are not avoiding public places. So, why would one of the most important things you do for yourself be something done over a screen?
This does not mean that telehealth will be eliminated in its entirety, but significantly reduced based on the clinical needs of each patient.
It comes down to one thing – “Do The Right Thing Always.” Behavioral healthcare is healthcare, and our medicalized approach to treating depression & anxiety has been our focus since the very beginning. It’s time to get back to what we do best – making meaningful connections with our patients and placing you at the center of all we do.
As we continue to offer personalized, effective, and evidence-based behavioral health services, a portion of your care must be in person, and is dependent on the clinical recommendations of your provider.
Our therapy services will continue to be conducted via telehealth.
If you are being seen for a telehealth visit, it is important that you are not disturbed or distracted during your appointment. Please choose a quiet, calm, solitary environment (Not in your car, on the move, or with family and friends, etc.)

What to expect with your telehealth appointment
A telehealth appointment is just like a regular appointment. You will sit in front of a camera where you will be able to see yourself and your Salience Health provider.
Once you have started your appointment, patients and providers will interact, just as they would for a traditional clinic appointment. Make sure to ask your provider questions, as you would in the office. At the end of the appointment, your provider will develop a personalized care plan.
How do I prepare for a telehealth appointment?
Before your appointment begins. Make sure you have completed the following steps:
Be sure to fill out all of your online paperwork before your appointment. We will not be able to see you until it is filled out. You can find all of the online paperwork here.
Make sure to check your internet connection 5-10 minutes before your scheduled appointment. Be sure to have your meeting email pulled up and ready for the appointment.
A member of the Salience Health Medical Assistant team will give you a call at the time of your appointment. They will help you get started with your appointment and begin your check-in process.
