Greetings,

I hope this note finds you and yours healthy and taking measures to ensure continued wellbeing in this time of altered daily schedules and heightened concerns regarding health.

As I do not wish to be a source for the spread of COVID-19 or any illness, I’ve moved exclusively to video counseling. I’ve spent the last several months conducting these sessions and all have gone quite smoothly with only a few minor hiccups during one or two sessions.

The below link will bring you to the video counseling platform. This is a HIPPA compliant site. I will assure privacy at my end. You might consider finding a private space at your end to ensure full privacy. It is important that you do not try to click on telehealth in your theraportal account. That does not work as the doxy link is separate from your theraportal and our practice software. If you have further questions, feel free to reach out to me through this email, [email protected] or my cell: 706-969-8542.

As I endeavor to provide continued compassionate care to all, I ask your patience in returning calls or emails as we find our way together through these interesting times.
