Talkiatry is now offering virtual therapy in all 50 states, aiming to bridge the long-standing gap between psychiatry and therapy. The company employs 400+ therapists who work alongside its 800+ psychiatrists in a shared care ecosystem. With 40% of Americans living in mental health shortage areas, the expansion targets a system under serious strain.
Talkiatry, the nation's largest private employer of psychiatrists, has expanded its virtual therapy services to all 50 states — a major step in its mission to deliver coordinated, full-spectrum behavioral healthcare. The company now employs more than 400 therapists who work within the same platform as its 800+ psychiatrists, enabling direct note-sharing and communication that's rare in today's fragmented mental health landscape.
The model addresses a persistent pain point: patients often see a therapist and psychiatrist through entirely separate networks, with little to no coordination between providers. By housing both under one roof, Talkiatry aims to close that gap and improve outcomes — patients seeing both a Talkiatry therapist and psychiatrist stay engaged in care twice as long as those receiving psychiatric care alone.
By the Numbers:
Why it matters: With a deepening psychiatrist shortage and billions in avoidable ED costs tied to untreated mental illness, Talkiatry's nationwide therapy rollout offers a scalable, in-network solution — and signals a broader industry shift toward integrated, tech-enabled behavioral healthcare.
