The most recent enrollment of Neil Leibowitz as the first chief medical officer of Talkspace marks a crucial move towards expanding its textual-based therapy service, to create a provision for psychiatric treatment. Talkspace has revolutionized the manner in which therapy is being administered, by providing online therapy, rather than the conventional therapy that required direct contact between a client and the therapist. Based on the statement mentioned above, patients can either use their mobile phones to text a therapist or on some occasion communicate their related issues by composing video message or even share pictures.
In relation to
the nature of service being offered by Talkspace Health Company, clients have
come to appreciate the level of confidentiality portrayed by the service. For
instance, some clients prefer the anonymity related to Talkspace therapy
claiming that the ability to not necessarily provide your real names makes one
have extreme confidence in sharing their situation, without fear of being
judged by the person in the other end. In addition, clients have come to love
the convenience of going through sessions at one's free time. For example,
Talkspace has provided a communication platform where one can send a text
message at their convenience and get feedback that they can go through whenever
they find ample time.
Another benefit
of seeking online therapy service from Talkspace is
the ability for one to switch therapist easily. Talkspace believes in providing
services that will bring about positive results to our clients. As a result,
Talkspace has structured its services in a manner that ensures the client with
an opportunity to select another therapist, should it happen that they are not
satisfied with their current client. Besides, since the nature of service being
provided is solemnly dependent on the availability and convenience of the
client, one is not limited to the extent at which they can reach out to a therapist
and get assured of feedback. Most importantly, one can decide to temporarily
suspend their account, and resume at whenever they are ready.
In line with
Talkspace development agenda, the appointment of Neil Leibowitz comes at a time
where Talkspace is on the verge of invading the field of
psychiatric remedy. As a result, Leibowitz has come to appreciate the program
and is fully committed to promoting Talkspace transformational agenda. In his
statement, Leibowitz admitted that as much as some people are accustomed to the
traditional therapy approach, many have also come to appreciate the mobile and
web-based approach. Therefore, Leibowitz believes that it is possible to expand
Talkspace to also cover psychiatric in a period not exceeding one from his
employment date. The newly confirmed chief medical officer also believes that
embracing Talkspace program marks a tool towards promoting the role of technology
in providing medical service.
In spite of
not having much popularity with employee assistance program, Leibowitz believes
that Talkspace can make more efforts towards partnering with other primary
health service providers, to render more reliable psychiatric remedy. In fact,
he believes that when the medical history of psychiatric patients is availed
online, it can provide adequate information that will enable many health
officers to provide the most appropriate treatment. In fact, companies like
Magellan have started remitting contributions to Talkspace, for services
provided to its employee.
