The same care we deliver in our offices — evaluation, medication management, and therapy — over secure, HIPAA-compliant video.
What is telehealth psychiatry at CIP?
Telehealth psychiatry is the same care we deliver in our offices — psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and therapy — conducted over secure, HIPAA-compliant video instead of across a desk. You meet a licensed provider from your home, your office, or anywhere private, on a phone, tablet, or computer.
The providers on screen are the same clinicians who practice at our Coppell and North Dallas offices, led by Dr. Tahir Khwaja, psychiatrist and Chief Medical Officer. Nothing about the standard of care changes with the format: a real evaluation first, a plan you help shape, and follow-ups with the same provider each time.
Telehealth appointments are available to Texas residents only — our clinicians are licensed in Texas, and we don't see patients located in other states.
Who is telehealth psychiatry for?
Anywhere in Texas
Houston, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso, the Panhandle, the Valley — Texans who want a real clinic behind their virtual care. We serve the whole state by video; our physical offices are in DFW.
DFW, by preference
Dallas–Fort Worth patients who prefer video for convenience, privacy, or a packed schedule.
Already in our care
Existing in-person patients who want to move some follow-ups online — same provider, same chart.
Parents & adolescents
Parents coordinating care for adolescents. For younger children, call to confirm care for your child's age.
From secure link to follow-up
What a video visit is like
Before your appointment, you'll get a secure link — no account setup gauntlet, no special equipment beyond a phone, tablet, or computer with a camera and a private place to talk.
What can — and can't — be done by video
Most psychiatric care translates fully to video. Evaluations, diagnosis, medication management follow-ups, and therapy all work well by telehealth — that's how many of our patients receive most of their care.
That honesty is part of the pitch: a telehealth "clinic" with no physical location can't offer you any of the above.
Which conditions can be treated by telehealth?
Telehealth supports evaluation and treatment for a range of conditions, among others:
Your provider will tell you if anything about your situation calls for in-person care.
Why choose a real Texas clinic over a national app?
The national apps taught a lot of people what to avoid. We built the opposite, on purpose.
The same provider, every visit
You build an ongoing relationship with one clinician — not whoever the algorithm assigns this week.
Offices you can actually walk into
If your care ever needs an in-person visit — an exam, a treatment like TMS, or simply your preference — our Coppell and North Dallas offices are real places with real staff.
Evaluation before any prescription
No questionnaire-to-prescription funnel. Treatment decisions follow a proper psychiatric evaluation, every time.
In-network, not subscription
We accept most major insurance plans — see insurance and payment — rather than charging a monthly membership.
Who will I see?
Nearly our entire clinical team sees patients by telehealth. You'll be matched with one provider and keep them.
Common questions about telehealth
Prescribing by video, whether you'll ever need to come in, what you need for a visit, and insurance.
