Telehealth Therapy FAQ

What is telehealth therapy?

Telehealth therapy is virtual mental health support offered through secure video sessions. It allows you to meet with me from the comfort, safety, and privacy of your home (or car, office, or cozy corner), using your phone, tablet, or computer.

Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

Yes! Research shows that telehealth therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions for many concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, parenting, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients find virtual sessions more accessible and flexible — especially busy moms, working professionals, and those managing full plates.

Where can I be located during my session?

You’ll need to be physically located in Georgia during your session since I am licensed to provide therapy in Georgia. You can join from anywhere that's quiet, private, and has a stable internet connection — even your parked car or a locked room at work.

Is it secure and private?

Yes. I use a HIPAA-compliant video platform to protect your privacy. No sessions are recorded, and I take your confidentiality seriously. I’ll also offer tips on how to protect your space if you’re worried about privacy at home.

What do I need for a telehealth session?

  • A phone, tablet, or computer with a camera

  • Stable Wi-Fi or cell service

  • Headphones (optional, but helpful for privacy)

  • A quiet, uninterrupted space

  • Something to sip on or a fidget if that helps you focus

What if I’m running late or having tech issues?

Life happens — especially in a virtual world. If you're having trouble logging in or running late, just shoot me a quick message. I’ll do my best to adjust as long as I’m able. If tech issues interrupt the session, we can reschedule or finish by phone.

Can I do therapy during my lunch break or from my car?

Absolutely. Many clients meet with me during nap time, on a lunch break, or in a parked car for privacy. As long as you’re in a safe, stationary, and private space, we can make it work.

Is telehealth a good fit for children?

For younger children, telehealth may not always be ideal unless we’ve set up interactive tools ahead of time. I’ll help parents decide what’s developmentally appropriate and suggest options like parent coaching, activity-based sessions, or hybrid care if needed.
