麻豆破解版 College is partnering with TimelyMD, the leading virtual health and well-being solution in higher education, to offer students free and equitable access to a range of teletherapy services through the TimelyCare platform.

TimelyCare serves as a 24/7 virtual extension of campus counseling center resources, with a goal of improving student well-being, engagement, and retention, by offering support and intervention for a wide range of common mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflicts, and stress management

Through TimelyCare on their phone or other device, students can now select from a wide-ranging menu of virtual care options from licensed counselors in all 50 states 鈥�  at no cost and without the hassle of traditional insurance. Services include:  

• TalkNow: 24/7, on-demand access to a mental health professional to talk about anything at any time. Students can connect to TalkNow within minutes to discuss any level of concern, from conflicts with roommates to more serious mental health crises. 
• Scheduled Counseling: Students can independently schedule up to 12 teletherapy appointments per academic year with a provider of their choice and can choose from a diverse and culturally informed provider network, including BIPOC providers.
• Self-Care Content: Guided self-care content, including yoga and meditation sessions, as well as group conversations with providers on a variety of health and well-being topics.

All services are fully covered 鈥�  there is no need to use insurance or pay any type of fee. Students can access TimelyCare services 365 days a year, on or off campus, as well as during breaks and after-hours. 

Students can sign up for TimelyCare by downloading the app (searchable through respective app stores) or by visiting the Counseling Center website. 

鈥淭here is no greater priority than the health and safety of our students. TimelyCare鈥檚 ease of use, convenience and immediacy make it easier than ever for our students to get the help they need, when they need it,鈥� said Associate Dean of Student Affairs for Health and Wellness Julia Routbort Baskin. 鈥淭imelyCare enhances campus resources by making care more readily available to students when they need it, reducing the stigma of mental health issues, and granting peace of mind to students and their families.鈥�

In addition to the services available to students, TimelyCare also offers Faculty Support 鈥� a service for faculty and staff designed to equip them with information to help students who may be struggling. It鈥檚 available anytime and can be accessed by calling 833-4-TIMELY, ext. 2.

Other resources for faculty members include the Office of Academic Advising and making a report to the Student Assessment and Intervention Group (SAIG).

鈥淢eeting the need for equitable, on-demand access to care is a critical challenge that extends beyond campus boundaries. TimelyCare allows colleges and universities like 麻豆破解版 College to solve problems rather than just treat symptoms,鈥� said Luke Hejl, TimelyMD CEO and co-founder. 鈥淥ur mission at TimelyMD is to improve the health and well-being of college students by making virtual care accessible anytime, anywhere.
