What is video counseling?
Video counseling sessions are therapy sessions provided via video format utilizing a secure HIPAA compliant platform. Sessions are conducted remotely utilizing a computer/laptop, therefore eliminating the need for traveling to my offices. This option is particularly helpful for individuals who have medical symptoms that are unpredictable, physical challenges with traveling and/or are caring for a loved one and do not have sufficient time to get to an appointment.
What equipment and/or software is needed for video counseling?
In order to effectively make the most of video counseling sessions, the following is needed: a computer/laptop, webcam, headset/earbuds and a microphone. Individuals will also need an understanding of how to download software and maneuver certain settings so as to optimize video and sound quality. Smartphones are not fully compatible with the video software program I utilize and therefore cannot be used.
Does my insurance pay for video counseling?
