Do you want to pursue therapy from the comfort of your own home? We are here to help.
We’ve learned a lot during this pandemic about how to be online together, and telehealth has emerged as a viable option to meet the modern needs of so many of us right now. Shifting therapy to online when you need to isn’t a problem. It’s a solution that makes therapy portable, accessible, comfortable, and confidential. That’s why we will continue to offer telehealth beyond the pandemic.
Telehealth can be a good fit for you for the following reasons:
- Transportation Challenges
- Caregiver responsibilities
- Accessibility
- Convenience
- Comfort
- Privacy
- Safety
However, there are also reasons why in-person therapy may be a better fit:
- Complex mental health diagnoses (i.e., visual and/or auditory hallucinations, recent suicidal or homicidal thoughts, ADHD)
- Youth (age 17 and younger)
- Poor internet connection
- Privacy
We currently offer telehealth to those living in New York, Connecticut, Maine, Vermont and Florida. We provide telehealth therapy via Simple Practice, a HIPAA-compliant video platform that is similar to Zoom.
