Providing Online Therapy to Texas

Simply put, it is counseling using video chat. Unlike traditional video chat, the video platform used for telemental health is HIPAA compliant and secure. Telemental health is a way to receive the counseling that you desire, in the comforts of your own home or office. The only difference between telemental health and face-to-face is the location.

Absolutely! Telemental health is great for people who may be busy or their daily lives make it more challenging to meet a counselor in the office. A traditional session is 45-50 mins, which can occur during a lunch break without the headache of traffic or rushing back. Simply put, it is a convenient way to seek the help and guidance you desire. You can always do a 15 min consultation at no cost to see if telemental health is right for you. At this moment, I do not accept telemental health clients who have a personality disorder or are actively suicidal. However, there are some counselors who specialize in providing therapy for clients who may be experiencing the aforementioned.
