On this segment of “Psychology Behind the Headlines,” hosts Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, and guest Whitney Catalano discuss a school-based telehealth program that’s making mental health care more accessible for children.
Increased Access
No more long drives to appointments – kids can get help from the comfort of their own environment.
Anonymity & Comfort
Many kids feel less nervous behind a screen, which may lead to greater openness in therapy.
Convenience for Families
Telehealth eliminates the need for parents to take time off work, making it easier to get consistent care.
