Telehealth Psychotherapy

Secure and confidential online psychotherapy allows me to provide mental health services using videoconferencing technology.

How It Works

Therapy that fits into your life

Online psychotherapy is a fast growing field and has been proven to be as effective as face-to-face therapy sessions.

I have been offering secure online video sessions, or telehealth services, since 2013. Sessions follow the same structure as in-person therapy: an initial assessment, collaborative goal setting, and weekly sessions lasting 45–50 minutes in the beginning stages of therapy.

Confidential and HIPAA compliant

Sessions are held on a free, confidential, HIPAA compliant video platform through doxy.me.

Available in five states

Telehealth sessions are available for clients located in California, Vermont, New Hampshire, Iowa, and Idaho.

From wherever you are comfortable

Telehealth psychotherapy allows my clients to participate in therapy in the comfort and convenience of their own home.
