Undoubtedly, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a great introspection of the human mind. As rising cases called for stricter lockdown and self-isolation policies, everything came to a standstill. This detachment from the outside world gave rise to several cases of deteriorating mental health in individuals.

Minimum social interaction gave birth to rising instances of anxious and depressive episodes. According to a brief by WHO, the first year of COVID-19 gave rise to the global prevalence of anxiety and depression by an astounding 25%. Therefore, while eliminating the pandemic’s profound viral spread was pertinent, diminishing the mental health outcomes as a result had also become an urgency.

Over the next few years since the pandemic, the healthcare industry has undergone a massive metamorphosis in its clinical, business, financial and operational aspects. Once such major technological advance, is the advent of telehealth.

Accessibility

A major issue that Telehealth resolves with respect to delivering efficient mental healthcare is accessibility. In most of the population of the U.S., mental health delivery systems are not accessible. Almost 50% of the countries in the USA do not provide access to a psychiatric professional. Globally, several countries have no mental health policies, or programs. This means that millions are devoid of an access to good mental health care.

With Telehealth, individuals of all ages and walks of life can interact with seasoned professionals in the mental health industry to consult on matters of the mind. Improving accessibility means improving mental health outcomes in not just the US, but across the world.

Convenience

Telehealth communication of mental health appointments means individuals can access mental health according to their preference of time and place. This means that adults and children no longer need to take time out to travel significant distances to speak to a mental health professional.

Adults can receive mental health during their work hours, or even at the end of the day, whereas children no longer need to take off from school or extracurricular to visit the therapist. Children can receive behavioural or one-on-one therapy sessions at home.

Scheduling Family Sessions

Another added benefit that telehealth provides is the feasibility of family appointments. Several in person family therapy sessions depend on whether every member of the family is free to allocate a certain hour to family therapy, or whether each member has their transportation sorted for their appointment.

While most in-person family therapy sessions can be a hassle, so educating patients on telehealth adoption allows an easy fix to address matters by having all members of the family join in, from their respective homes, through a virtual video call, with their therapist.

This allows for an ease of access as well as a relevant platform to address issues and foster good relations amongst each member of the family at each mental health appointment.
