Telehealth
We know it isn’t always possible for people to walk into our offices for face-to-face counseling. Whether it is because of distance, schedules or other reasons, Christian Counseling through our video-based, secure system can be a great option.
Why online counseling?
We don’t always live within Metro Areas, but are still in need of counseling. Coming into a Counselor’s office is not always possible. Whether it is early in the morning, on a lunch break or after the kids go to bed, online counseling might work for you!
There are plenty of studies that indicate online counseling is effective, safe and secure.*
How does it work?
Mount Tabor Counseling uses a system called Jane. This system is secure, HIPPA compliant, and extremely convenient. It provides us with the ability do online video counseling.
Jane works with almost any device that connects to the internet, including Mac, PC, iPhone, Android, Chromebooks, and more!
How to Prepare:
Before your initial session, please complete any paperwork through our online portal system: Jane.
Make sure you are in a secure confidential space, where you feel comfortable speaking freely.
Check your internet connection to ensure that the session will run smoothly. If connection is poor, your clinician may recommend changing to a phone session or rescheduling for another time.
Please note that telehealth therapy can only take place in the States your clinician is licensed in.
What to Expect:
Our therapists have experience providing tele-health counseling and will guide you in creating a space that is just as effective as in-person counseling.
You will receive from a link prior to your appointment that will give you video access.
You will need to grant the page permission to access your video and microphone.
By clicking on the begin session link, you will enter the waiting room where your clinician will admit you and begin the session.
Results:
We find that telehealth therapy is just as effective as in person therapy and can provide loads of benefits and access to people like never before.
There's something to be said about having the comforts of your own home and favorite pillow, blanket, cuddly item, hot tea, and uplifting pictures around you.
