Let’s get started.
You deserve a safe, happy, and healthy life.
For many children and adults in Ohio, including Dayton, the journey to hope and healing is often obstructed by anxiety, depression, family and marital problems, psychiatric care for any mental disorders, and limited access to community resources.
According to America’s Mental Health Rankings:
“Nearly 25% of Ohio adults are experiencing mental health issues, according to nonprofit Mental Health America (MHA).
Only three states reported worse figures in 2019.
Ohio fell from 11th to 25th in the annual mental health rankings, showing a significant year-over-year decline.
We at Counseling Now strive to change this. Through our online mental counseling and psychiatry services in Dayton, we aim to help every child and adult succeed in all areas of their lives.
Counseling Now focuses on a patient-first approach to mental healthcare, psychiatry, and case management in Dayton.
Every child and adult we serve receives the same care and respect.
We don’t view our patients as numbers or cases; we see them as individuals with unique needs and stories.
This understanding allows us to provide an individualized treatment plan that takes into account your culture, needs, personal history, and specific situation.
We promise to treat you with respect and dignity, no matter your age, gender identity, race, ethnicity, mental health issue, or where you live in Ohio.
We’re not just a mental counseling online service—we’re a community dedicated to helping you succeed.
We understand that financial concerns can be a significant barrier to seeking help.
For many families and parents in Ohio, that can mean giving up their children to the state in order to get them the mental health care they cannot afford.
According to the MHA, 27.7% of Ohio adults who needed mental health care did not get it due to cost.
That’s why we accept a variety of insurance plans, ensuring everyone in Dayton can access affordable and timely care.
We accept Medicaid, Medicare, Tricare, and all major commercial insurance plans for our online mental counseling and psychiatry services in Dayton.
If you lack insurance or have an out-of-network plan, don’t worry. We offer self-pay options and flexible payment plans for all our patients.
The MHA has provided concerning insights about mental health access in Ohio. Their report mentions that:
“Leading up to the pandemic, large shares of adults with mental illness did not receive care.
In Ohio, 63.4% (567,000) of adults with mild mental illness, 50.7% (335,000) of adults with moderate mental illness, and 30.5% (186,000) of adults with serious mental illness in the past year did not receive mental health treatment.
in 2018-2019, 7.5% (664,000) of adults in Ohio reported an unmet need for mental health treatment in the past year, which was higher than the U.S. share of 6.2% (15.4 million).”
Fortunately, modern technology has overcome many obstacles to accessing mental health care.
At Counseling Now, we’ve embraced this technology. Our online counseling services and psychiatric therapy in Dayton are available on any device with an internet connection, such as a phone, desktop, laptop, or tablet.
There’s no need to miss work or school. Don’t worry about transportation, childcare, or interacting with strangers while waiting.
You can attend your session of psychiatric care in Dayton at your convenience, in a place where you feel safe and comfortable.
Additionally, you won’t have to wait weeks or months for care–most of our clients can book an appointment and see a mental health provider within the same week.
At Counseling Now, we believe that mental health is an essential part of your overall wellbeing and quality of life.
It helps you cultivate meaningful relationships, face life’s challenges with confidence, and achieve happiness and peace of mind.
However, mental health issues are a part of life for many Chicago residents.
It could be anything– a family crisis, recurring depression and panic attacks, stress, relationship problems, or anything else that causes you to struggle with your mental and emotional health.
No matter what it is, you’ll find a compassionate ally here at Counseling Now.
Our Chicago counselors and therapists will meet you where you are – whether that’s at home, in the office, or a quiet spot in your favorite café – through live online counseling at the time of your choosing.
Whatever you’re struggling with, time is of the essence for psychiatric patients like you in Chicago.
Even “mild” symptoms like restlessness, lack of appetite, or irritability can turn into a full-blown episode if not addressed quickly enough.
You can’t afford to wait weeks or months when you or your loved ones are having a psychotic break or need your medications adjusted.
Working with a virtual psychiatrist from Counseling Now allows you to skip long waitlists at clinics or hospitals and receive the help you or your loved one needs right away.
Our licensed psychiatrists, family nurse practitioners (FNPs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PNPs) are trained in assessment and diagnosis, including psychiatric evaluations, psychotherapy, and prescribing medications.
As part of our psychiatry services, we also offer medication management for children, teens, adults, and senior patients in Chicago.
Our specialists can help you transition to a new medication regimen, assist you with adjusting your dosage, and help you cope with side effects.
