Tele-health is a telecommunication service Symmetry Counseling can provide to its clients via a HIPAA compliant and secure platform. We provide therapy (tele-health) services via teleconferencing or by phone.
Yes! It’s just as effective as in-person therapy. Your therapist will provide you with a secure link and password prior to your appointment. This secure link will give you and your therapist access to a video or phone session with your therapist. During your video session, you will see your therapist and your therapist will see you. If you choose to have a phone session, you will only hear your therapist. Only you and your therapist will be able to access the link, unless this information is shared. Please do not share this information or screen shot.
Most insurances are covering tele-health during the pandemic. We suggest contacting your insurance company prior to your scheduled appointment. Our billing department will also check your behavioral health benefits, including tele-therapy, if you complete our intake forms and decide to move forward with therapy at Symmetry Counseling.
