Telehealth Sessions
Telehealth Sessions
A telehealth session is conducted over a video call. Telehealth sessions have been increasingly utilized by therapists over the past several years, and they have been shown to be about as effective as in-person sessions. At this time, most insurance companies are covering telehealth services. My experience is that the insurance benefits for telehealth, including deductible and copay, are very similar to the in-person outpatient behavioral health benefits.
I offer sessions through an online tool called Doxy.me. Doxy.me is free for clients, and there is no need to download any software or any app. The client simply uses a web browser on a computer, phone, or tablet to access my account. There is no need for the client to set up an account. No information is stored by the website, it is simply a secure conduit for the video call. For more information on this tool, visit www.Doxy.me.
Phone Sessions
Most insurance companies are currently reimbursing for phone sessions in order to allow increased access to treatment.
