Virtual Psychiatric Care That Fits Your Schedule

Lumora Health provides online psychiatry in Richmond, VA, for eligible adolescents and adults who prefer virtual psychiatric appointments. Online care can make it easier to attend mental health appointments while managing work, school, family responsibilities, and other daily commitments.

Virtual psychiatric visits can include evaluation, medication management, treatment planning, and follow-up care when appropriate.

Online Psychiatric Services

Depending on individual needs, online psychiatric care may include:
  • Psychiatric evaluations
  • Medication management
  • ADHD-related psychiatric care
  • Anxiety and depression support
  • Mood disorder care
  • Treatment planning
  • Ongoing psychiatric follow-up

Not every service is suitable for online treatment. The provider considers the patient’s needs, requested service, location, and clinical requirements before determining whether virtual care is appropriate.

How Online Psychiatry Appointments Work

After scheduling, eligible patients receive information about joining their online appointment. During the visit, the provider may discuss current symptoms, medical history, medications, previous treatment, and personal concerns.

The appointment may focus on an initial evaluation, medication management, treatment planning, or follow-up depending on the patient’s needs.

Patients should attend from a quiet and private location where they can discuss personal information comfortably.

Technology, Privacy, and Eligibility

Online psychiatry generally requires a reliable internet connection and a device with a camera and microphone. A private space can help protect the confidentiality of the appointment.

Eligibility for online treatment depends on the service and clinical circumstances. Some patients may need an in-person evaluation or appointment instead.

The care team can explain the requirements before the appointment.

Online Psychiatry vs. In-Person Care

Online psychiatry can reduce travel and provide additional flexibility for eligible patients. In-person care may be more appropriate when direct assessment is needed or when a patient prefers an office setting.

The right appointment format depends on the individual and the service being requested.
