West Virginia's Mountains Make the Drive Hard. Telehealth Makes It Unnecessary.
We’re proudly headquartered right here in Martinsburg — and telehealth means the rest of the state gets the exact same access, mountains and all.
Why Telehealth in West Virginia
Expanding access to psychiatric care in West Virginia.
Large parts of West Virginia are widely recognized as mental health provider shortage areas, and winding mountain roads can turn even a “nearby” psychiatrist into a serious drive. Telehealth was practically made for a state shaped like this one: the same licensed care reaches a home in the Eastern Panhandle and a home three ridgelines deep, without anyone crossing a county line.
Built for mountain distances
No winding two-hour drive just to reach the nearest available psychiatrist.
Closing a real shortage
Much of West Virginia faces a documented shortage of mental health providers — this is exactly the gap telehealth exists to close.
Headquartered in-state
Based in Martinsburg, licensed for the whole state — not an out-of-state practice borrowing your license requirement.
