Teletherapy, also known as online therapy, e-therapy, or video therapy is therapy delivered through a virtual platform via a computer or smartphone. If you’ve ever used FaceTime or Skype, it’s essentially the same thing, except more secure, HIPAA compliant, and with a qualified therapist.
By providing teletherapy, I am available to provide therapeutic services to more residents in Texas that may not have the same access to mental health services in their area. If you are in the Austin area, you can reduce your time in traffic and have more flexibility in your schedule by taking advantage of teletherapy.
Why Teletherapy?
Offers greater flexibility and work life balance
Reduce commute time
Privacy of your home
Convenient in times of illness
Access for clients with mobility difficulties
I use a teletherapy platform through my practice management software, Simple Practice. Which is secure and HIPAA Compliant. Once an appointment has been created, you will receive a link via email so that you can join the virtual session.
