Virtual Counseling Sessions

I am able to offer virtual sessions, also called video or Telehealth sessions IN FLORIDA AND New York.

Offering sessions online allows me to provide counseling and therapy to my clients from the comfort of their own home or anywhere they choose. All you need is a computer, smartphone, or tablet along with an internet connection. 

Virtual counseling sessions are offered to Florida residents as well as residents in the state of New York in need of counseling services. 

Many counselors have just started doing sessions in this manner, I have been doing it for years. I have seen my clients get all the benefits of traditional therapy, from the comfort and convenience of their own homes. It has proven to be effective for many. 

Here are some tips for how to have a good virtual therapy appointment:

  • Make sure you have a strong WIFI signal or internet connection.

  • Make sure no one is streaming ie. video games or even Netflix can slow down band width -which interferes with connection.

  • Know it is ok to tell me that the video is frozen or not working properly. Trust me, I want to know!

  • Carve out a safe space and intentional time for therapy that can ensure confidentiality. 

If you are interested in starting virtual sessions please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to help you on your journey.
