Online Therapy With a Qualified
Therapist in South Carolina
Telehealth
I use HIPAA compliant video-conferencing technology to meet with clients virtually. Clients are able to meet with me using their desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or cell phone. You will be responsible for finding a private location with an Internet connection. Recent research has demonstrated that online therapy is as effective as meeting with a therapist in person.
Evidence-Based
I use empirically-supported psychotherapy approaches that have been demonstrated to be effective via peer-reviewed research. I select my approach based on numerous factors including the presenting issue(s), client background, treatment goals, and contraindications among other things.
Therapist-Client Relationship
The largest predictor of success in therapy is the client’s perception of the quality of their relationship with their therapist. The American Psychological Association has identified the therapeutic alliance, goal consensus, and empathy as being demonstrably effective in improving client outcomes.
What I Don’t Do
As I am not a medical doctor, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner. I do not prescribe medication. While reviewing your medications or recommending that you consult a physician might be part of our work together, my recommendation will always be to continue taking your medications as prescribed until you have consulted your prescribing physician.
How Long Does It Take?
The length of therapy is based on the client’s particular needs and goals. I generally recommend beginning with weekly sessions. Each client’s pace is unique. I have long-standing clients that like to continue to check in monthly. We can discuss what you think might work best for you during our initial consultation.
You Are Welcome
I don’t discriminate based on race, sex, gender identification, sexual orientation, national origin, native language, religion, age, disability, marital status, citizenship, political affiliation, genetic information, pregnancy, or any other characteristic. If you need help, I will help you if I am able.
