COVID-19, Counselling and Tele-health

Here to help in trying times - COVID-19, stress, isolation and continuing therapy sessions with tele-health. The pandemic and social distancing has changed how we live for the near future. I am now offering sessions by phone or video.

Phone and video sessions are not the same as in-person of course, but we can be thankful for technology. I am available for you. I know many are troubled with anxiety and facing unforeseen challenges. I can help with a place to talk and with coming up with strategies and tools for your needs.

Tech does bring its own challenges however with respect to privacy, security and confidentiality. Phone is the most secure, but I do have access to a professional video platform that is used by medical professionals for its high security. My professional bodies, The College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario, and the Canadian Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, have both offered very hepful resources for "electronic practice". When we "meet", I will go over some more details about this with you.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns.

For the time being, I will be relaxing charges for late cancellations or no shows. I will probably be expanding my availability as I know some will need to work every hour they can get.
