Unlocking Mental Health Access Through Telehealth

Breaking Barriers: The Potential of Telehealth in Mental Health

Content:
The rise of telehealth services since 2020 has opened new doors for mental health support, particularly for individuals with limited access to traditional care. However, as my recent project has shown, barriers such as lack of internet access and socioeconomic challenges still limit its full potential.

Key Insight:
Telehealth adoption grew to 27.7% (2020-2024), yet usage is uneven, ranging from 0% in some regions to over 80% in others.
Addressing gaps like technological accessibility and outreach can significantly enhance engagement.

Call to Action:
Let’s reimagine how technology bridges gaps in mental health care. I’m eager to connect with professionals and innovators working to make mental health support more accessible. What strategies have you seen work?
