What is the difference between Tele Mental Health vs Tele Counseling?

AspectTele Mental HealthTele Counseling
CredentialsLicensed mental health professionals (e.g., psychologists, psychiatrists, licensed therapists)Licensed counselors, therapists, or social workers
Work EnvironmentRemote, private practice or healthcare settingsRemote, clinics, or private practice
Industry UsageHealthcare, mental health servicesBehavioral health, emotional support
Search & Comparison IntentUnderstanding mental health treatment options onlineSeeking emotional support or counseling services remotely

Tele Mental Health involves licensed mental health professionals providing diagnosis, therapy, and psychiatric services remotely. Tele Counseling typically refers to licensed counselors or therapists offering emotional support and guidance via telecommunication. While both are remote mental health services, Tele Mental Health often covers a broader scope including medication management, whereas Tele Counseling focuses on talk therapy and emotional support.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a tele mental health professional, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Tele Mental Health professional, you need a background in psychology or counseling, an active clinical license (such as LCSW, LPC, or Psychologist), and a solid understanding of mental health assessment and intervention. Familiarity with telehealth platforms, secure video conferencing tools, and electronic health records is crucial for delivering remote care. Excellent communication, empathy, and adaptability are vital soft skills for building rapport and supporting clients virtually. These competencies ensure effective, ethical, and accessible mental health care in a remote environment.

What is tele mental health?

Tele mental health refers to the provision of mental health care services remotely using technology such as video calls, phone calls, or secure messaging. This approach allows patients to connect with licensed mental health professionals from the comfort and privacy of their own homes. Tele mental health is especially beneficial for those with limited access to in-person care due to distance, mobility, or scheduling constraints. It can be used for a variety of services, including counseling, therapy, medication management, and follow-up appointments.

What are some common challenges faced by tele mental health professionals, and how are they typically addressed?

Tele mental health professionals often encounter challenges such as managing client engagement in a virtual setting, ensuring privacy and confidentiality, and navigating technical issues like unstable internet connections. To address these challenges, clinicians use secure, HIPAA-compliant platforms, provide clear guidelines to clients about privacy, and may offer troubleshooting support or backup communication methods. Regular training and peer consultation also help practitioners stay updated on best practices and maintain effective therapeutic relationships remotely.

Join Valera Health, a leader at the forefront of tele-mental health, where your passion for compassionate, evidence-based care meets purpose. We are dedicated to making high-quality mental health care accessible and affordable for all. We're currently expanding our team and looking for exceptional, driven mental health therapists for full-time roles.
At Valera Health, we believe exceptional mental healthcare starts with supporting exceptional providers. Founded by clinicians who know how hard it is to find quality care for everyone, especially underserved communities, we've built something different-a place where you can focus entirely on what you do best: providing compassionate, evidence-based care to those who need it most.
As a therapist with Valera, you'll treat the complex cases others turn away-from mild anxiety to schizophrenia and bipolar disorder-while our dedicated administrative team handles all the scheduling, billing, and prior authorizations. This means you can practice at the top of your license alongside psychiatrists, medical assistants, and care coordinators, delivering care that truly transforms lives.
Ready to be part of something bigger? Join our mission to make quality mental healthcare accessible to everyone.
Join the Valera Community:
Enjoy competitive compensation and benefits because your expertise deserves to be valued. Deliver exceptional, inclusive mental healthcare that truly meets patients where they are.Become part of a supportive provider community with a compassionate care team genuinely dedicated to patient outcomes. Collaborate within our vetted in-house network of health coaches, therapists, nurse practitioners, and psychiatrists with diverse expertise. Focus on clinical work while we provide the technology and EMR systems for efficient, effective care delivery. Receive comprehensive support including malpractice insurance, healthcare benefits, continuing education, PTO, and competitive per-visit compensation. Access clinical training opportunities to expand your skills (with available CEUs). Set your own schedule and work remotely while earning steady, predictable pay.
Job Duties:
  • Render evidence-based treatment to a spectrum of patients.
  • Provide an array of mental health services to promote individualized patient recovery primarily through telehealth video or telephone.
  • Conduct intakes, individual, group, and family therapy when applicable.
  • Provide mental health assessments, counseling, referrals, and intervention services.
  • Complete and maintain documentation in a timely and accurate manner and according to Federal, State, and company guidelines.

Requirements:
  • Active LICSW, LMHC, or LMFT license in New York
  • Minimum 1 year of 1:1 clinical experience using evidence-based treatment
  • Experience with EMR documentation and treatment planning
  • Reliable technology access: high-speed internet and private workspace for confidential sessions
  • Willingness to obtain additional state licenses

What Makes You Stand Out:
  • Training in EMDR, DBT, or other specialized modalities
  • Telehealth or remote experience
  • Self-motivated with strong independent work skills and collaborative team spirit
  • Excellent engagement and assessment abilities with diverse patient populations

Compensation:
At Valera, we believe that pay transparency during the interview process is a critical part of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our recruiters will review our compensation model on our first call with you to be able to make an informed decision.
In addition to a highly competitive benefits plan, Valera's Hybrid W-2 therapists' compensation plan totals ~$58K-$105K, which consists of a base salary plus a monthly productivity incentive. An onboarding incentive will also be added to the first three paychecks during a clinician's ramp-up period.
Be part of our mission!
We are very proud of the work that we do and it takes a great team to make it happen! If you are interested in one of our open positions, we'd love to start the conversation.
We hire people from all backgrounds because that's what it takes to build a team that can reach and support those in need of high-quality behavioral healthcare. We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
