What Treatments Does Superior Health Medical Provide?

Superior Health Medical offers two forms of treatment: video counseling and prescription medication. Your provider will determine the most effective course of action based on your symptoms and other considerations and may recommend one or both of these treatments.

Video Counseling

Video counseling, also teletherapy, allows individuals to access mental health support through a secure video connection with a licensed therapist. Using a computer, tablet, or smartphone, clients can engage in audio and video communication with their providers from the convenience of their own homes. This form of video counseling offers a convenient and effective way for individuals to receive mental health treatment, particularly for those who value the flexibility and comfort of receiving treatment remotely.

Medication Management

Medication, either on its own or in combination with teletherapy, can be a useful treatment option for addressing mental health issues. Prescription medication can help manage the symptoms of your condition, while a therapist from our secure online platform can teach you coping skills and other strategies. Your healthcare provider will assess whether or not medication would be beneficial for you.

*What Will Telehealth Counseling and/or Treatment Cost?

Superior Health Medical is committed to providing accessible and affordable mental health treatment. Our teletherapy sessions are priced as follows:

*Cost may be less with insurance
