What is Online / Video Therapy?

We’ve noticed an increasing demand for video therapy simply because of it’s convenience and the confidentiality it offers. Therapy is provided from the comfort of your own home using your smartphone, computer, or laptop.

Quite simply, make an appointment with your therapist.  A few minutes prior to your scheduled time, you’ll sign onto the video platform.  Your therapist will then also connect at your appointment time and provide you with your therapy or counseling session.
