A note on Telehealth
Telehealth sessions allow you to access psychology support from the comfort of your own space. Sessions are conducted face-to-face via Zoom, and you will receive a secure Zoom link before your appointment. You can join from home, work, or any private location where you feel comfortable and can talk openly.
When supporting clients through Telehealth, I also continue to collaborate with other healthcare providers involved in your care where appropriate (such as your GP or other treating professionals) to help ensure you receive well-rounded support, including providers who may be seeing you face-to-face.
Benefits of Telehealth
• Access support from anywhere in Australia
• Often allows faster access to care and more flexibility with appointments
• Can feel more comfortable for some people being in their own environment
Things to Consider
Telehealth is not the right fit for everyone and it is not always clinically suitable. If Telehealth is not safe for a client, I will recommend an in-person referral.
