TimelyCare
Virtual Health and Well-being
As part of Virginia Tech's partnership with TimelyMD, students have free, 24/7 access to virtual care services with TimelyCare – the virtual health and well-being platform from TimelyMD, designed for college students. For questions about the service or IT support, call 833-4-Timely.
- TalkNow: 24/7, on-demand emotional support to talk about anything, including anxiety, relationships, depression, and school-related stressors. This can be a supplement to therapy, or standalone. It is unlimited.
- Scheduled Counseling: Up to 12 free virtual therapy appointments per academic year. Choose the day, time (including later evenings and weekend availability), and mental health provider that works best for you. All of their providers have training in the diverse needs of college students. This service is best for students seeking ongoing counseling services over multiple appointments, which last approximately 50 minutes each. Students cannot engage in concurrent individual therapy with a provider at Cook Counseling and scheduled (on-going) therapy through Timely Care.
- TimelyCare therapists can refer students to Cook Counseling Psychiatry after 3 scheduled counseling appointments within an academic year.
- Health Coaching: Develop healthy lifestyle behaviors for nutrition, sleep habits, time management, and mindfulness. This can be a supplement to therapy, or standalone as well. It is unlimited.
