Online therapy Los Angeles

Online therapy in Los Angeles and anywhere in California.

What if relationship counseling and trauma therapy came to you online?

Wouldn't it be great if you could sit on your own couch instead of traveling to mine? I know, traffic is the worst. Plus the thought of commuting across town in rush hour traffic for a 5:30 pm therapy appointment is just too much. Well, you don’t need to stress, because I offer convenient and secure online video sessions for clients located in California. We can meet from the privacy of your home or office, whether you're located in or outside the Los Angeles area.

If you're struggling to find the right therapist in your area of California for relationship counseling or trauma therapy, then consider expanding your therapist search through online therapy. I get how frustrating it is when you can't find a therapist in your area who specializes in your specific issues and concerns, or provides culturally competent and compassionate counseling. Don't let your location keep you from connecting and getting the help and support you need.

How online therapy in California works

Online therapy or telehealth sessions are conducted through a secure, HIPAA complaint video platform and offer the same quality of care as in-office sessions.

In order to participate in online counseling, you'll need a computer (laptop or desktop), tablet or smartphone that's equipped with a webcam and speakers. You'll also need an internet connection that is at least 10 mbps, and a comfortable and private place where you can talk without interruptions. Before your scheduled video session, you'll receive a unique link to join the session through your computer or tablet's web browser. If using a smartphone, you'll be directed to download a mobile app on your device.

Using insurance for online therapy

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most major insurance carriers have expanded their coverage to include reimbursement for therapy sessions conducted via telehealth. However, there are still some insurance and third party payers that may not reimburse for virtual therapy, or may only cover it for a certain period of time. This includes insurance carriers that reimburse for out-of-network coverage. I strongly suggest you contact your insurance carrier prior to starting online therapy for a full review of your benefits.
