Clinical Consultation in Bentonville, AR
Clinical consultation by phone or secure video — bridging the gap between sessions
Our programs are led by fully licensed clinicians who use evidence-informed approaches and validated assessments to create measurable, lasting change.
Supporting Your Journey Between Sessions
Evidence-Informed Care Continuity for Established Clients
At ZipHealthy, we understand that healing and growth happen between scheduled therapy sessions. Our structured telephone support services provide established clients with continuity of care, helping you maintain progress and navigate challenges between your comprehensive video therapy or in-person appointments. Research demonstrates that brief between-session contacts significantly increase therapy adherence and reduce relapse rates (Mohr et al., 2012, JAMA Psychiatry).
Note: This service is only available when clinically indicated as part of an established treatment plan and is not a substitute for comprehensive therapy sessions.
Understanding Telephone Support Services
Our telephone support services complement your primary treatment plan by providing structured check-ins between formal therapy sessions. These brief, focused calls help maintain continuity of care and provide targeted support during your treatment journey. These calls supplement—but do not replace—your comprehensive video therapy or in-person sessions.
Legal Disclaimer: Telephone support services are not emergency services. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, please call 911, go to your nearest emergency room, or call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988. Our telephone support is only available to established clients with an active treatment plan and is provided at the discretion of your treatment provider when clinically appropriate.

How Telephone Support Enhances Your Care
Our evidence-informed telephone support addresses four critical treatment needs:
Between-Session Support
Brief, structured check-ins for clients working through challenging situations:
- Significantly reduces distress between regular therapy appointments according to the Journal of Psychiatric Research
- Provides timely intervention for emerging concerns
- Reinforces skills learned in comprehensive sessions
Crisis Stabilization Follow-Ups
Structured post-crisis monitoring to ensure safety and reinforcement:
- Substantially reduces rehospitalization rates as shown in studies by Psychiatric Services
- Ensures proper implementation of safety planning
- Provides continuity between crisis response and regular care
Prescriber Care Coordination
We are planning brief telephone check-ins to coordinate your therapy with your existing prescribing provider (PCP or psychiatrist):
- Shares relevant therapy progress notes with your prescriber (with your written consent)
- Helps align therapy goals with the broader care plan
- Improves continuity of care across providers
Note: ZipHealthy clinicians are LCSW psychotherapists and do not prescribe or manage medications.

Our Evidence-Informed Approach
At ZipHealthy, we've developed a structured telephone support protocol based on clinical research showing that brief interventions between sessions significantly enhance outcomes:
- Focused Assessment: Targeted 5-point check-ins that efficiently track your current status (shown to identify concerns 3x earlier than waiting for the next session)
- Skill Reinforcement: Brief practice of techniques learned in therapy to strengthen neural pathways and improve retention (shown to significantly increase skill mastery in clinical studies)
- Progress Monitoring: Structured measurement of treatment plan adherence to quickly address barriers (research shows this can reduce overall treatment duration)
- Resource Deployment: Just-in-time connection to appropriate community supports when needed (studies show significant reduction in emergency service utilization)
- Documentation Integration: All telephone support interactions are fully documented in your secure health record to maintain continuity with your primary provider
