Telepsychiatry

Finding high-quality, specialized mental health care shouldn’t be another source of stress. Yet, for many busy professionals, dedicated parents, and individuals living outside major urban centers, accessing expert psychiatric support can feel impossible. The logistics of travel, taking time off work, and fitting appointments into a packed schedule often become significant barriers to getting the help you deserve. What if you could connect with an expert integrative psychiatrist from the comfort and privacy of your own home?

At Willow & Stone, we believe that exceptional care should be accessible. Our telepsychiatry services bring our unique, whole-person approach directly to you, wherever you are. Using a secure, confidential, and HIPAA-compliant virtual platform, we provide expert mental healthcare that fits seamlessly into your life. This isn’t just about convenience; it’s about providing consistent, compassionate, and deeply personalized care without compromise. For us, remote mental health care is about breaking down barriers and building a genuine therapeutic partnership, no matter the distance.

Appointments for minors require parent or guardian initiation. Please include the child’s age and primary concern in the Contact Us message.

Insurances We Accept

What We Offer via Telepsychiatry

Our virtual platform offers access to the full spectrum of our integrative psychiatric services. We deliver the same level of depth, precision, and partnership online as we do in our office. You are not getting a lesser version of care; you are getting our best care, delivered in a way that works for you.

Our telepsychiatry services include:

Integrative Psychiatric Evaluations

Our comprehensive, 90-minute to two-hour initial evaluations are conducted via secure video. We take the time to understand your full story, explore your health history, and begin building the foundation for your personalized treatment plan.

Thoughtful Medication Management

We provide expert, evidence-based medication management with a "less is more" philosophy. Follow-up appointments allow for careful monitoring of your progress, discussing any side effects, and making precise adjustments as needed.

Functional Psychiatry Consultations

We can guide you through the process of advanced lab testing (hormones, nutrients, inflammation) remotely. We then conduct detailed follow-up sessions to review your results and build a data-driven plan incorporating nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle changes.

Trauma-Informed Care and Follow-Ups

As a trauma-informed practice, we create a safe and stable environment for all our sessions. We understand the mind-body connection of trauma and provide ongoing support that respects your history and fosters physiological calm and emotional healing.

Every aspect of our virtual psychiatry in DFW and beyond is designed to provide you with a cohesive and supportive experience.

How It Works: Your Path to Virtual Care

Getting started with our telepsychiatry service is a simple and straightforward process. We’ve designed every step to be user-friendly, secure, and supportive.

Step 1: Booking Your Appointment

You can begin by scheduling a complimentary discovery call to ensure we are the right fit for your needs. Alternatively, you can contact our office directly or use our online portal to book your initial consultation. You will receive a confirmation with all the necessary details.

Step 2: Completing Your Intake Forms

Before your first session, you will receive a link to our secure patient portal to complete your intake paperwork. This allows us to gather your health history and understand your concerns ahead of time, so our first meeting can be focused entirely on you and your story.

Step 3: Attending Your Video Session

A few minutes before your scheduled appointment, you will receive a link to join your private, HIPAA-compliant video session. There is no software to download; you simply click the link from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. Find a quiet, private space where you can speak openly without interruption.

Step 4: Comprehensive Assessment and Planning

During your session, Dr. Forbes will conduct a thorough evaluation, listen to your goals, and collaborate with you on the next steps. This may include recommendations for lab testing, lifestyle adjustments, or medication.

Step 5: Ongoing Follow-Up Care

We schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress, adjust your treatment plan, and provide continuous support. Communication between sessions is handled through our secure patient portal, ensuring your privacy is always protected.

To prepare for your session, ensure you have a reliable internet connection and a device with a camera and microphone. Most importantly, give yourself the gift of uninterrupted time to focus on your health.

The Benefits of Choosing an Online Psychiatrist in Texas

Opting for telepsychiatry offers numerous advantages that make it a powerful choice for modern mental healthcare. It’s a model that prioritizes your needs and integrates smoothly into your life.

Unmatched Convenience and Flexibility

Eliminate travel time, traffic, and waiting rooms. Attend your appointments from home, your office, or even while traveling (within our service areas), allowing you to fit vital self-care into your demanding schedule.

Continuity of Care

Life brings changes—a new job, a move, or a busy travel schedule. Telepsychiatry ensures that you can maintain a consistent, ongoing relationship with your trusted clinician without interruption, which is crucial for effective treatment.

Access to Specialized Expertise

Seeking help from the privacy of your own space can feel more comfortable and less intimidating for many people. It removes the potential discomfort of visiting a clinic and allows you to engage in care on your own terms.

Access to Specialized Expertise

Your location should not limit your access to the best possible care. Telepsychiatry makes it possible for individuals in rural or underserved areas to connect with a specialist in integrative and functional psychiatry—expertise that may not be available locally.

Personalized and Consistent Care

With Willow & Stone, you will see the same clinician for every appointment. This consistency is the bedrock of a strong therapeutic alliance, allowing for a deep understanding of your unique journey and a truly personalized approach to your wellness.

Who Is Telepsychiatry For?

Our virtual services are designed for a wide range of individuals who are ready for a more accessible, personalized, and in-depth approach to mental health. We work with teens (16+) and adults across Texas, Florida, and Louisiana.
