60% of rural Americans live in areas with a shortage of mental health professionals.
Residents of these rural communities are far less likely than their urban counterparts to report needing care, and significantly less likely to receive treatment for mental health problems.
Women are particularly affected, and are at a higher risk for abuse, as the shortage of mental health services and lack of anonymity often make it difficult for women to leave dangerous relationships.
This is where eCounseling Essentials can help.
eCounseling Essentials brings therapy right to the hands of those who need it. Through HIPAA compliant software, individuals or groups can directly video call licensed therapists. A connected device is all that’s needed. eCounseling Essentials also eliminates stigma, because each therapy session is conducted from the privacy of the patient's own home.
eCounseling Essentials works on tablets, smartphones, laptops and desktops. Patients that travel frequently can even access their therapist while on the road.
