FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND?

If your question isn’t answered below, view our full list of FAQs here.


WHO IS BRIGHTSIDE FOR?

Brightside provides online mental health care to individuals 18 years and older
in all 50 states. Our expert providers can help with anxiety, depression, and
many other common concerns. We offer personalized psychiatry and
clinically-proven therapy. 

Please note: Our providers do not prescribe controlled substances. Here is a
list of medications we do prescribe.

Online care is not a good fit for people with certain conditions or situations.
These can include:

 * Ongoing, high-risk self-harm behavior
 * Schizophrenia or any symptoms of psychosis
 * Some cases of bipolar disorder I or acute mania
 * Severe substance use
 * Medically unstable eating disorders
 * Dementia
 * Kidney or liver disease, long QT syndrome, seizures, or cardiac arrhythmias
   (restricted for medication treatment only)

If any of these describe a condition you’re experiencing, it’s best for you to
be seen in person by a primary care provider who can help you find the treatment
that’s right for you.


HOW DOES BRIGHTSIDE WORK?

Brightside makes it easy to get life-changing mental health care from the
comfort of your home. We offer psychiatry (medication), therapy, or both. 

Here’s how care at Brightside works 

1. Take a free assessment: Answer a few questions to help your provider better
understand what you’re experiencing. View your results and choose psychiatry,
therapy, or both.

Learn more about psychiatry

Learn more about therapy

2. Meet with your expert provider: Choose your provider and book your 1:1 video
session. 

 * For psychiatry: Your first session is typically 30 minutes and includes an
   evaluation, a conversation about your personalized treatment, and a chance to
   ask any questions. You and your psychiatric provider will talk about how
   you’re feeling—then decide on the best next steps, together. 
 * For therapy: All of your therapy sessions are 45 minutes. Your therapist will
   ask some questions about you and your past experiences. Then you can talk
   about goals and go over how they can best support you. 

3. Follow your treatment plan: You can message your provider with questions at
any time.

 * For psychiatry: Take any medications as prescribed and stay in touch with
   your psychiatric provider about how you’re doing.
 * For therapy: Continue your 1:1 video sessions and complete self-guided
   lessons. Our self-paced lessons help you practice skill-building exercises
   that are proven to help you feel better. Your therapist will review your
   responses and provide guidance along the way.

4. Track your progress, and start getting better: Share how you’re doing in
check-in questionnaires so your provider can stay up to date. 

 * For psychiatry: You and your provider will meet for follow-up appointments.
   Typically, you’ll see your provider every few months—or more often, if
   treatment changes are needed.
 * For therapy: You and your therapist will typically meet weekly to talk about
   challenges and celebrate your progress. You can share what’s working well for
   you and where you want to go deeper. Your therapist will help guide you
   through your personalized program so you see the best results.


WHO ARE THE PROVIDERS AND THERAPISTS?

Our expert providers are handpicked for their ability to provide best-in-class
mental health care. They have years of experience and active licenses in your
state. 

All of our therapists have:

 * A master’s or doctorate degree in clinical psychology, clinical social work,
   or counseling from an accredited program
 * Experience delivering science-backed (also known as evidence-based) care for
   anxiety & depression

All of our psychiatric providers are:

 * Psychiatrists or psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners (PMHNPs)
 * Exceptionally skilled at prescribing effective medication

Every provider in our network goes through a rigorous hiring and vetting process
that you can learn more about here. They also follow the same high clinical
standards as in-person providers.


DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?

Yes, learn more about insurance we accept here.


IS MY INFORMATION KEPT PRIVATE?

Brightside Health and its associated platform is HIPAA compliant and follows all
HIPAA requirements including, but not limited to, the Privacy Rule. We encrypt
data in transit and at rest. All communication with our software is done using
signatures with a cryptographic hash algorithm. As well, all information is
encrypted at rest once stored on our servers.


WHY DO YOU NEED TO MONITOR MY SYMPTOMS?

Mental health conditions are complicated. To make sure you are on the right
treatment, and making appropriate progress, we will ask you to complete
check-ins periodically to let us know how you’re doing. Your provider will
review these check-ins to help them decide whether making an adjustment will
help you get better, faster, and stay that way longer.   

You can also use this information to track your own progress over time.


HOW DO I GET MY MEDICATION?

If prescribed, your psychiatric provider will send your prescription to a local
pharmacy for your convenience.


HOW CAN I GET HELP IF I’M IN CRISIS?

Your safety is extremely important to us. If you’re at immediate risk of suicide
or self-harm, seek 24/7 help now:

 * Call or text 988 for the 988 Lifeline. 

 * Call 911 for emergency support. 

 * Go to your local hospital immediately for care. 

Help is always available. We also recommend reaching out to a family member or
friend to let them know that you are having these thoughts and to ask for help
and support.

741-741

If you’re in emotional distress, text HOME to connect with a counselor
immediately.

988

Call or text the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline for 24/7 emotional
support.

911

If you’re having a medical or mental health emergency, call 911 or go to your
local ER.

everyone who needs it.
