If you have already scheduled a session is via Distance Counseling
Don’t have time to come to an in-person counseling session? We offer online therapy through a secure video conferencing platform. In this way you could see us on your lunch break, or before or after your work hours without ever having to leave your office. Often your child’s school will allow your older child or teen to be seen through a Distance Counseling session while at school using a classroom or office not in use at the time for a counseling session.
The online option can save you precious time and money in gas. We are also aware that being in an online session would reduce many people’s worry about possible COVID exposure.
Distance Counseling/ Online therapy or telephone counseling is often a benefit for those who may find it difficult to attend regular appointments in person, prefer the comfort of their own home or office, or find comfort in the anonymity of the phone.
Please be sure to test your preferred form of contact prior to each session. Choose a place that has privacy, strong Internet connection or phone signal, and is comfortable and quiet. It is often beneficial to schedule periodic appointments in person as well. Most people benefit from telephone/online counseling; however, some risks do exist. Non-verbal cues, and eye contact, are likely to be missed, especially in a telephone session. Depending on your location there may also risks to your privacy. Signature pages for Distance Counseling will be provided to you through our online server and must be signed and returned prior to scheduling your first session. You will be responsible for signing into our secure video platform to meet with your counselor at your scheduled appointment time.
