ONLINE COUNSELING · TEXAS
Telehealth Counseling
Wherever you are in Texas, support is available. I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth sessions
so that getting the care you deserve fits your actual life.
"Many of my clients find that having the option to be in their own space actually makes it easier to open up."
Telehealth counseling means we meet over a secure video platform — you from wherever you feel most comfortable, and me from my private home office. Sessions feel like in-person therapy in nearly every way that matters. The connection, the conversation, and the care all travel through the screen just fine.
GETTING STARTED
How It Works

03
Complete Your Intake Paperwork
Before your first session, you will receive intake paperwork through the SimplePractice client portal to complete securely online. This includes your informed consent, privacy notice, and a brief intake questionnaire. Completing your paperwork prior to your first session is required — it ensures we meet all legal and ethical obligations and allows us to make the most of our time together from the very first session.

04
Join Your Session
At your appointment time, click the secure link in your confirmation email or client portal. No downloads required — it runs directly in your browser. If you have any technical difficulties, I will reach out to you directly.
05
Begin Our Work Together
In your first session we get to know each other, explore what brought you here, and begin identifying the patterns, experiences, and strengths that shape your life. There is no pressure to have it all figured out. We start exactly where you are and move at your pace.

Your privacy is protected.
I use SimplePractice for all telehealth sessions. SimplePractice is a platform specifically designed for mental health providers that meets HIPAA standards for security and privacy.
Your sessions are conducted through an encrypted, secure video connection. They are never recorded without your explicit consent, and your personal health information is never shared with third parties.
Confidentiality is a cornerstone of the therapeutic relationship. Everything shared in session is protected by law, with a small number of legal and ethical exceptions — including situations where there is risk of harm to yourself or others, suspected abuse or neglect, or a court order. These limits will always be reviewed with you before we begin working together.
I am licensed to provide telehealth counseling to clients located anywhere in the state of Texas. At the time of each session, you must be physically present within Texas.
