How Teletherapy Services Work
Virtual mental health care looks similar to in-person sessions in many ways. The biggest difference is the logistics of the online therapy platforms. You will get email and text reminders before the teletherapy session with a link to the online therapy “room.” The link always stays the same so you can easily put this only your calendar. Some clients also bookmark it for easy access, no matter what you will stick get an email with the link.
Once you click on it you will be taken to a digital “waiting room” on the therapy platform. You put in your name and pronouns if you desire and then wait until the start of your video conferencing appointment.
Katie will start the appointment and you will get popped into the online therapy room. Much research shows online therapy and is as effective as in person. Some clients actually find it more helpful if they have difficulty opening up because it feels less scary than having a person in the room staring at you.
If you have deeply relational trauma or feel nervous around mental health professionals working with an online therapist may help mitigate that.

For all other insurances, you may have out-of-network benefits, which means that they will support the cost of our services.
