Understanding Telemedicine
Telemedicine refers to providing healthcare services remotely using digital tools like video calls, messaging apps, and other virtual tech. For mental health practitioners, this means offering therapy, consultations, and even assessments online instead of face-to-face in an office.
Telemedicine opens up so many possibilities. Your clients can attend sessions from home, eliminate geographical barriers, and make scheduling way more flexible. It means you can reach more clients, offer more appointment options, and connect with people who might not otherwise have access to in-person care.
How PlaySpace Can Support Your Telemedicine Practice
At PlaySpace, we’ve designed our platform specifically with mental health practitioners like you in mind. We understand the challenges and unique needs when it comes to online therapy. Here’s how we can help you make the most of telemedicine for your practice:
1. Keeping Sessions Confidential
Confidentiality is very important in therapy and one of the common concerns about telemedicine is how to keep client information safe. With PlaySpace, we ensure your client’s security and privacy. Our general session link feature is simple: send a link to your client and they can join the session without needing to create accounts or share personal info. It’s similar to Zoom but built with therapy in mind.
2. Hands-On Support from Our Team
Navigating new technology can feel overwhelming sometimes. That’s why we’re always here to support you. Whether you’re setting up a session, troubleshooting an issue, or exploring new features, you have direct communication with our support and technical team whenever you need it.
3. Flexible Therapeutic Approaches
Every client is unique, and different therapeutic approaches work better for different people. Whether you prefer a more structured, goal-oriented style or a client-led, open-ended approach, our platform supports both modalities. We’ve created tools that allow you to guide sessions as needed while providing enough flexibility for clients to take the lead when appropriate. This helps you tailor each session to the needs of your clients, just as you would in person.
4. Expanding Your Reach
With telemedicine, you’re no longer limited to clients who live within driving distance of your office. PlaySpace allows you to provide care to clients across regions, states, or even countries. This not only helps you grow your practice but also opens up opportunities to work with individuals who may have difficulty accessing mental health services in their local areas. For clients with busy schedules, or anxiety about in-person sessions, telemedicine offers an accessible and convenient solution.

We recognize the importance of feeling involved and connected to a telemedicine platform that you entrust to run your sessions.
