Frequently Asked Questions

What is telehealth psychology?
Telehealth psychology refers to the delivery of psychological services through secure audio or video conferencing platforms. It allows clients to access therapy, consultations, and assessments remotely, often from their own homes. This method can be especially beneficial for those in rural or remote areas, individuals with mobility challenges, or anyone who finds it difficult to attend in-person sessions due to logistical reasons like travel or scheduling conflicts.
Is telehealth as effective as in-person therapy?
Research shows that telehealth psychology can be as effective as in-person therapy for many conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. The effectiveness depends on the client’s comfort level with virtual platforms and their ability to engage openly during sessions. Psychologists trained in telehealth use interactive tools and tailored strategies to ensure the quality of care mirrors traditional face-to-face therapy, supporting positive outcomes.
Who can benefit from telehealth psychology?
Telehealth psychology can be suitable for a wide range of individuals, including children, adolescents, and adults. It benefits those who face barriers to attending in-person sessions, such as living in remote areas, having physical disabilities, or having tight schedules. It also provides convenience for families or individuals seeking flexible, accessible care while maintaining the same level of professional support as in-office consultations.
Are telehealth sessions secure and confidential?
Yes, telehealth sessions are conducted on secure platforms to maintain client confidentiality. Psychologists follow strict ethical and professional guidelines to protect all personal information. To ensure privacy, it’s important for clients to choose a quiet, private space for their sessions. This combination of secure technology and professional standards provides a safe environment for discussing sensitive issues.
