What is TeleHealth?
Convenient Behavioral Health Support From Home
Telehealth allows children, young adults, and families to receive behavioral and mental health support remotely through secure virtual appointments. Instead of traveling to a clinic, families can connect with Texas Care providers from the comfort of their home using a phone, tablet, or computer.
Telehealth makes it easier for families to access care while reducing barriers such as transportation challenges, busy schedules, long travel times, or difficulty attending in-person appointments. Virtual services provide a convenient way for children and families to stay connected to support while continuing to receive quality care in a familiar environment.
At Texas Care, telehealth services are designed to provide flexible, accessible support while maintaining personalized care. Sessions may include behavioral health support, skill-building services, care coordination, coping strategies, emotional support, and family guidance depending on the child’s individual needs and treatment goals.
How Telehealth Helps
Telehealth gives families greater flexibility and easier access to care without needing to leave home. Virtual services can help children and young adults continue receiving consistent support, improve communication with providers, and stay engaged in treatment even during busy or stressful periods.
For many families, telehealth also creates a more comfortable setting where children may feel more relaxed and open during sessions. Services remain focused on building emotional, behavioral, and social skills while supporting progress at home, at school, and in everyday life.

Texas Care is committed to making behavioral and mental health services more accessible for families across the community.
