Our virtual therapy services connect you directly with licensed clinicians who bring genuine empathy, relational warmth, and evidence-based practices right to your screen.
Common Questions & Hesitations
Is Telehealth Secure and Private?
Yes. We take your privacy seriously. All online sessions take place through a secure, HIPAA-compliant video portal designed specifically for healthcare providers.
No software downloads required: Access your appointments easily on a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
Encrypted connection: Data is encrypted end-to-end to protect your personal information and session content.
Your privacy matters: We conduct our sessions from private, quiet office spaces, and we ask that you join from a private space where you feel safe speaking freely.
Ohio State Licensing & Jurisdiction Rules
State regulations govern how cross-border and virtual mental health services operate:
Licensed Practitioners: Our clinicians providing care to Ohio residents hold active licenses or compact privileges authorized to practice in the State of Ohio (e.g., LISW, LPCC, IMFT, or PSYPACT mobility allowances).
Physical Location Requirement: To comply with state licensing law, you must be physically located within Ohio during your session time.
Insurance & Out-of-Network Reimbursement
Insurance Coverage: Ohio law supports coverage parity for telehealth services. Many private health plans and employer-sponsored coverage pay for virtual therapy at rates equivalent to in-person appointments. We recommend contacting your provider to confirm telehealth benefits.
Self-Pay & Out-of-Network Superbills: If we are out-of-network for your specific carrier, we provide detailed monthly itemized statements (Superbills) that you can submit directly to your insurer for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
What You Need for a Successful Virtual Session
A Reliable Internet Connection: High-speed Wi-Fi or strong cellular data.
A Private Space: A quiet room, parked car, or cozy corner with headphones for privacy.
A Device with a Camera & Mic: Any modern smartphone, laptop, or tablet works.
