virtual sessions
We offer online therapy to residents of California. For coaching, we offer sessions for residents outside of California.
As the coronavirus continues, many of us are unable or unwilling to travel for an in-person therapy session. If you are already in therapy, or if you need professional emotional support, online therapy sessions or telehealth can provide the care that you need.
How do online therapy sessions work?
In advance of your session, we will send you instructions for clicking in or dialing into the session. Ideally, you will use a smartphone or a computer with a camera so that we can get the full experience of meeting, including facial expressions and body language.What tips do you have for making online sessions work?
When you come to the office for psychotherapy, you expect an environment that is quiet, private, and professional. This is true for online therapy sessions as much as for in-person sessions! Prepare yourself a working headset (if you will be calling via computer) and a quiet room. For best results:- Make sure the room is well lit. (A window in front of you might cast a shadow or create low visibility.)
- If possible, to improve eye contact, position your camera so that it’s easy to look at the camera and at the screen.
