Talkspace - Online Therapy
Talkspace is a virtual service that connects members with licensed mental health providers for counseling, therapy and medication support. All care is delivered through a private and secure digital platform (iOS/Android/Web), so members can send their personal therapists unlimited private text messages, anytime, or attend a video appointment, from anywhere. Therapists message no less than twice per day via text, voice, or video. Talkspace has many options— including self-help tools and education—to support the needs of adults, teens, and couples.
UniCare members can access therapy virtually through text, audio, and video sessions anytime using Talkspace. For more information and to access care via Talkspace, visit talkspace.com/beaconhealthoptions.

Your UniCare plan includes benefits for LiveHealth Online. Copays range from $10-$20 depending on your plan.
