Frequently Asked Questions
About Telehealth Services
Telehealth addiction treatment delivers professional counseling, therapy, and recovery support remotely via secure video platforms, phone, or messaging applications. The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated telehealth adoption, with research now demonstrating effectiveness comparable to in-person treatment for appropriately selected individuals. Telehealth increases access, reduces barriers, and provides convenient, private addiction care.

Effectiveness and Research
Growing research demonstrates telehealth effectiveness for addiction treatment. Studies show comparable outcomes to in-person care regarding treatment engagement, retention rates, abstinence outcomes, and patient satisfaction. Telehealth works particularly well for continuing care, relapse prevention, medication management, and individuals with appropriate clinical severity (mild to moderate cases without complex medical/psychiatric needs requiring in-person care).
Advantages of Telehealth
Remote treatment eliminates geographic barriers (rural areas, lack of local providers), transportation obstacles (disability, no vehicle, distance), scheduling conflicts (flexible hours including evenings/weekends), privacy concerns (anonymous from home), stigma worries (no one knows you're attending), pandemic safety, continuity when relocating, and social anxiety about in-person groups. Telehealth democratizes access to quality addiction treatment.
Limitations and Considerations
Telehealth cannot provide medical detox or 24/7 supervision, may be less effective for severe addiction requiring intensive structure, requires stable housing and reliable internet, presents challenges for crisis management, may involve home environment distractions, and depends on individual comfort with technology. Telehealth works best for stable, motivated individuals with appropriate clinical severity and supportive home environments.
Hybrid Models
Many programs now offer hybrid approaches combining in-person and telehealth services. Some require periodic in-person assessments with telehealth sessions between. Others allow clients to choose per session. Hybrid models provide flexibility while maintaining some in-person connection. Insurance coverage and state licensing regulations influence available options.
