Telehealth Counseling
 

I am an advocate for the continuing use of telehealth services provided for clients in Virginia. 

Telehealth allows the client the ability to receive mental health services from the comfort of their home. This resource allows them to have flexibility they may need due to other responsibilities such as career, environment, parental duties, and other factors that could otherwise be a barrier to receiving mental health care. Overall, telehealth counseling can improve access to care and enhance the therapeutic experience.
