Telehealth means that all my sessions are conducted online via video-conference (Zoom), phone, or text.  These virtual sessions offer many advantages over traditional therapy: my clients feel more comfortable and safer in their own settings, commuting and parking anxiety is eliminated, and there's more flexibility with appointments. 

 

As a licensed mental health professional, I am required to follow licensing codes, state laws, and HIPAA regulations that ensure security and confidentiality.  As a Telehealth clinician, I have a signed HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Zoom that protects my clients' personal health information in accordance with HIPAA guidelines.  I also follow the Telehealth Best-Practices Guideline established by the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association.
