Anyone in California
You do not need to live near San Diego. If you are physically located in California during your session, we can see you. From Redding to San Ysidro.
Telehealth across California
Care That Comes to You, Anywhere in California
If you live anywhere in California, you can meet with the same Palm Mental Health providers as our El Cajon and Chula Vista clients. Secure video sessions from home, your car, or wherever you have privacy. Same clinicians, same services, same warmth.
The same providers
Your telehealth visit is with the same licensed therapists, psychiatric providers and case managers who see clients in our offices.
Simple and secure
You receive a private session link by email or text. Click it at your appointment time. No special software, no accounts to create.
How a virtual visit works
Three Steps, From Your Home
Request your appointment
Fill out our short online request, or call us. Tell us you prefer telehealth and which language you are most comfortable in.
We confirm by phone or email
A member of our staff contacts you to confirm a time that works and answer your questions about how virtual visits run.
Join your private session link
At your appointment time, click the secure link we send you. That is the whole process. Everything you discuss stays confidential.
Services Available Virtually
Most of what we offer in our offices works just as well on video.
Individual Therapy
One-on-one sessions for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and life transitions. Virtual sessions are private, and many clients find it easier to open up from their own space.
Couples & Family Therapy
Meet together even when you are in different places. Everyone joins the same secure video session from wherever they are.
Psychiatry & Medication Management
Psychiatric evaluations, ongoing medication check-ins and prescription renewals happen comfortably over video with our psychiatric providers.
Case Management
Help navigating healthcare systems, community resources and benefits continues by video and phone, wherever in California you live.
Comfort in your language
We Speak Your Language
Talking about mental health is hard enough without searching for the right words. Our team includes clinicians who speak English, Spanish, Arabic, Farsi, Bengali and Aramaic, and telehealth makes it simple to match you with someone who speaks yours.

Insurance & Paying for Care
We accept most major insurance plans, and our staff can check your coverage before your first visit, including for telehealth appointments. If you prefer to pay directly for care without using insurance, we offer self-pay options and will walk you through costs clearly before anything is booked. Contact us and we will explain your options plainly, with no surprises.
