TimelyCare
Virtual Health and Well-being

As part of William & Mary partnership with TimelyMD, students now have 24/7 access to virtual care services with TimelyCare – the virtual health and well-being platform, designed for college students. There is no cost for these services for students who have paid the Health & Wellness fee.

William & Mary Students will have access to:
1. Talk Now: Unlimited on-demand mental health support 24/7(available to all William & Mary students throughout the world), to talk about anything, including anxiety, relationships, depression, and school-related stressors. This can be a supplement to therapy, or standalone. It is unlimited.

2. Health Coaching: Unlimited access to health coaching, available to all William & Mary students throughout the world. 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.

3. Scheduled Counseling Sessions: Limited to 12 sessions per academic year (available to all William & Mary students throughout the United States). Choose the day, time (including later evenings and weekend availability), and mental health provider that works best for you. Students can look through the bios, specializations, and identities of the providers to find a good match. Over half the TimelyCare providers hold a BIPOC identity. 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, (approximately 50 minutes each). Sessions can extend to 12 appointments over the course of the calendar year, which resets each fall. Students cannot engage in concurrent individual therapy with a provider at the W&M Counseling Center and scheduled (on-going) therapy through Timely Care.

4. Self-Care Content: Visit the Explore page within TimelyCare for guided self-care content.
