Covid-19 has turned our world upside down. You have likely been in a scramble to sort your new life circumstances between working from home, homeschooling your children and adjusting to new and different relationship roles and responsibilities.
Many in person businesses are shut down and unable to operate. You can’t do things like eat out at a restaurant, attend your place of worship or go to a nonessential doctor’s appointment. These circumstances are necessarily leaving us with a great deal of time at home which can be both good and bad.
You may wonder whether mental health services would also be closed because therapy and coaching is typically done in an office.
Orleans Psychological Services has been able to adjust to the societal changes and has made a rapid shift to providing telehealth services. These include high quality video sessions through our secure and HIPAA compliant platform (we do not use Zoom or Google-based systems) or phone conversations.
Some benefits of telemedicine include being able to engage in therapy from the comforts of your own home with your favorite pillows or pets at your side. This platform and social distancing orders also allow us to safely work from our office site providing full confidentiality and security on our end. We are also able to extend our reach throughout the state of Ohio.
Providers at Orleans Psychological Services are well-equipped to deliver teletherapy and coaching in these uncertain times. Our steady perspectives provide stability, our clinical knowledge offers insight and our practical approach delivers concrete solutions in this ever-shifting world.
If you or a loved one are experiencing difficulty during these uncertain times reach out to us to set up an initial appointment to find out how we can help provide calm during these troubled times.
