Primarily In Person. Telehealth When It Helps.
My counseling practice is primarily built around in-person work at my Rockford office.
I value face-to-face counseling and, when practical, prefer the consistency and connection of meeting in the same room.
At the same time, real life doesn’t always cooperate with a perfect weekly schedule.
That’s why I also use telehealth as a backup and adjunct to in-person counseling when appropriate.
Telehealth Can Help Maintain Continuity
There may be weeks when getting to the office is difficult because of:
Work demands.
Travel within Illinois.
Weather.
Transportation issues.
A temporary scheduling conflict.
Illness or other circumstances that make an office visit impractical.
Rather than automatically missing counseling altogether, telehealth may allow us to keep the appointment and maintain momentum.
It Doesn’t Have to Be All or Nothing
Choosing in-person counseling doesn’t mean every future session must be in person.
And using telehealth once doesn’t mean you’re becoming a telehealth-only client.
For some clients, we may occasionally move between the two formats depending on circumstances.
Think of telehealth as another tool available to support the counseling process.
Same Counselor. Same Goals. Different Setting When Needed.
When clinically appropriate and permitted, telehealth can give us flexibility without making virtual counseling the primary identity of the practice.
If you aren’t sure whether an in-person or telehealth appointment makes the most sense in a particular situation, ask.
We’ll figure it out.
