Tele-Health, Video Based Therapy for Adults and Teens
If you are a Virginia resident, you may desire to utilize tele-health instead coming into the office for appointments. During the COVID-19 pandemic, therapists all over the country had to quickly move to a tele-health platform to insure safety and protect the wellness of clients and families. However, many of our therapists have been using this modality for years.
At the Family Therapy Center, we use a tele-health platform that allows "screen sharing". This means the therapist can upload a feelings faces image for example or can share an article on the computer and both can view it simultaneously. It also means that the therapist can find a meditation video, couples counseling exercise or deep breathing clip (when appropriate) and upload it and both can watch it AND each other at the same time. What we have learned is that this modality is useful during a pandemic, but ALSO useful for normal, everyday life as well.

Who Can Benefit From a Tele-Health, Video Based Therapy Session?
There are many reasons why one might prefer to utilize a tele-health therapy session for themselves or a teen instead of an in-person appointment.
Some of our clients have auto-immune or chronic illnesses and struggle to leave the home due to immunity related complications, fatigue, etc. Others have phobias or anxieties that make life outside the home really scary. Some will be drawn to our clinicians because of a specialty they have obtained or a population that they serve, yet the commute to see us is too far OR business involves a lot of travel or time at the office.
As long as you are a Virginia resident and the therapist agrees that this modality could work for you and your teen, or your college student away from home, tele-health video sessions may become an option for you!
