We know that each day we wake up to news updates and an ever growing list of changes we are making in our lives. It can bring up a lot of fear, anxiety and even grief as plans are cancelled, social distancing happens and daily routines are completely shifted. We truly value our relationship and have developed a plan so we can continue to take care of your mental health during this time. We want to be a place of support through what you are going through.
Starting Wednesday 3/25/2020, providers will be able to offer virtual sessions through a secure video platform that can be accessed via a desktop/laptop or smartphone. This is a temporary measure as the CoVid-19 will one day pass.
Research shows that virtual sessions is an effective form of psychotherapy. There are a few differences than what you experience in our office. You will need to find a space if at all possible that is quiet and where you feel comfortable to share. If you have a headset that will also help with reducing noise and distraction.
Please note that your video session will be conducted at the same time of your weekly session. If you do not have a regular weekly session time, your provider will reach out to you to schedule your upcoming session. Prior to the time of your session your provider will send you an email that will contain a link to our secure video portal.
If you have not yet signed a telemedicine video consent form, we would encourage you to do so as soon as possible. The form can be completed online on your computer/laptop or smartphone and can be accessed by clicking here.
We recognize this is a crucial time for all of us to maintain some sense of normalcy, to get support when we are isolated and to continue working on our strengths to take care of our mental well being.
