Ready to Get Started?
Good care shouldn’t depend on how far you live from a clinic. With telehealth at Lee Carlson Center, you can meet with a licensed Minnesota therapist from your living room, your car during a lunch break, or anywhere else you feel comfortable. You’ll get the same quality of care and the same insurance coverage as an in-person visit.

Why Clients Choose Telehealth at Lee Carlson Center
It’s available across Minnesota and beyond.
You don’t need to live near Fridley, Brooklyn Center, or Coon Rapids to work with us. Telehealth lets us reach clients statewide, including smaller and rural communities where local mental health options can be limited or where privacy is harder to come by.
It’s covered like any other visit.
Telehealth sessions are billed the same way as in-person appointments and accepted by the same insurance plans, including HealthPartners, Blue Cross Blue Shield, UCare, Medical Assistance, and Medicare. If you qualify for our sliding fee scale in person, you qualify for it on telehealth too.
It fits into your life.
No commute, no time off work you don’t have, and no arranging childcare just to make it to an appointment. Telehealth removes a lot of the friction that keeps people from getting started, or from staying consistent once they do.
It’s just as fast to get started.
Telehealth clients get the same access as everyone else at Lee Carlson Center, including new client appointments often available within the same week.
How Telehealth Works at Lee Carlson Center
Getting started is simple, whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re switching from in-person care.
- Reach out. Fill out our short new client form online, or call us at (763) 780-3036, whichever is easier for you.
- We take care of the details. We’ll verify your insurance, walk you through any sliding scale or Medicaid/Medicare questions, and match you with a therapist.
- Get scheduled. Most new clients are seen within the same week.
- Complete a short intake. Before your first visit, you’ll fill out paperwork through our secure patient portal, so your first session can focus on you, not forms.
- Log in and meet. At your appointment time, you’ll join your therapist through a secure, confidential video link from wherever you feel most comfortable.
Is Telehealth right for you?
Telehealth works well for most of the people we see, but it’s especially valuable if:
- You live outside the Fridley, Brooklyn Center, or Coon Rapids area, or anywhere else in Minnesota
- You live in a smaller or rural community and want added privacy
- You have a busy schedule, unreliable transportation, or caregiving responsibilities that make in-person visits hard
- You’re simply more comfortable talking through a screen than in an office
If you’re not sure, that’s alright. Talk to us. We can help you decide whether telehealth, in-person care, or a mix of both is the best fit, and you’re always free to switch as your needs change.
