I am primarily using telehealth for counseling sessions since my move to Summerville. Research supports that telemental health care is effective for treating many presenting issues.
Telehealth sessions are most effective when you are able to find a quiet, private area where you do not fear being overheard during our meeting. You can use any device with a camera and microphone to access this HIPPA-compliant, encrypted Doxy waiting room during our scheduled appointment time - https://doxy.me/oliviacounseling. You will not be required to download software or create an account. If you're experiencing issues with an echo or choppy video, these tips may help.
“Teletherapy” (telemental health care, telehealth, online counseling) includes consultation, treatment, transfer of medical data, emails, telephone conversations, and education using interactive audio, video, or data communications.
There are risks with telehealth services including, but not limited to, the possibility, despite reasonable efforts on my part, that: the transmission of your medical information could be disrupted or distorted by technical failures; the transmission of your information could be intercepted by unauthorized persons, and/or the electronic storage of your medical information could be accessed by unauthorized persons.
I agree to abide by the ethical and legal guidelines prescribed by my professional licensure in the states of Georgia and South Carolina.
