Founded in 2020, talkiatry operates a virtual psychiatry and therapy practice delivering remote care covered by major insurance. The platform integrates with over 100 insurance partners, enabling patients across 45 U.S. states to access appointments in days rather than months. The company has delivered more than 2 million patient visits through its network of 600+ psychiatrists and therapists.
The practice employs a clinician-led operational model designed to reduce administrative burden while preserving professional autonomy. Its technology platform handles practice management and insurance billing, allowing clinicians to operate with the flexibility of private practice alongside the stability of a larger institution. This approach targets retention and satisfaction within its clinical workforce while streamlining the friction points that typically constrain mental healthcare access.
The company was founded by Dr. Georgia R. M. D. and a patient co-founder, combining clinical expertise with direct insight into care gaps. Its focus centres on making high-quality mental healthcare accessible and affordable through the existing insurance infrastructure rather than requiring out-of-pocket payments or lengthy waiting periods.
