Online Appointments FAQs
LifeStance offers both online and in-person appointments. Depending on your circumstances, if you prefer online sessions only, you may be able to get the treatment you need entirely online. If you want to see your provider in-person sometimes, or all the time, you have the flexibility to do that as well.
For your appointment, you will need to have access to a private place and a computer/tablet/smartphone with a camera and a high-speed internet connection. LifeStance will provide you with access to the videoconferencing software. All you have to do is be on your device and logged on at the time of your appointment.
We will send you directions on how to log in after you set up and confirm your appointment.
In some cases, individuals who are unable to attend onsite appointments may be able to receive prescriptions and/or manage their medication through online psychiatry accessed using an internet-connected device from a private space. Your clinician will inform you if an in-person visit is needed.
LifeStance is committed to ensuring that the interaction between the individual and the psychiatrist/therapist is private, secure, and HIPAA compliant.
