Telehealth Counseling in Georgia & Florida

 

My practice is fully online, so all of my sessions are Telehealth video sessions.

What is Telehealth?

Telehealth Counseling, also known as online therapy, telemental health counseling, virtual therapy, or distance therapy, is counseling that is provided via the phone or internet. This allows for convenience, flexibility, and accessibility. If you schedule a Telehealth appointment with me, your services will be provided through a HIPAA-compliant platform called Sessions Health that will allow us to connect via both video and audio for our online sessions. No special software is necessary.

Most insurance plans cover Telehealth, but be sure to contact your insurance company to see if they will cover Telehealth sessions/virtual visits for behavioral health/mental health with me as your provider.

FAQs about Telehealth

Telehealth may not be a good fit for everyone.

*Some insurance plans only cover Telehealth with a third party platform, such as Teladoc, Live Health Online, or MDLive, which does not include my services.
