Person on laptop outside doing telehealth

At this time, public health officials have recommende sessions be conducted virtually to reduce the spread of COVID-19. we utilize a HIPAA secure virtual platform to provide counseling and coaching services. 

Although this isn't exactly how you probably imagined starting with us - there are some cool aspects to telehealth I would love to share. 

  • Research has demonstrated telehealth is just as effective as in-person services. This is because the mirror neurons in our brains still work whether you are physically in the room or on a computer screen. 
  • You get to introduce us to your pets, babies, toddlers, and that cool plant on your windowsill!
  • You get to receive therapy from the comfort of your own home or office. It easily fits into your schedule and does not require drive time. 
  • You don't have to wear a mask (or even pants for all we know!) 


With that said, there are a few drawbacks too. 

  • We cannot always see your whole body. This might mean missed cues that body language provides. 
  • We can't hand you a tissue to show you that we really are right there with you.  (Although I have been known to try through the screen... which made everyone have a good laugh!) 
  • Technology is not perfect and does fail. We have back up plans, but it can be disruptive during the session if we have to switch platforms or communication methods. 
  • Privacy can be tough at home. Some clients have chosen to do therapy in their car, on a walk, or from their closet. This is great and nope, we are not judging the mess in the background. we actually hardly even notice since we are focused in on you!


This is a newer experience for many of us and I commit to you that I have received additional telehealth training and approach all the hiccups with good humor. I seek to address any problems with diligence. If you have any extra questions, please don't hesitate to reach out

Looking forward to "seeing" you!

COVID 19 precautions

There are limited instances in which in-person counseling or Reiki services are necessary. Due to this, I do have a very limited space open available. 

COVID-19 precautions and strict santation procedures are in place in my building. 


In person appointments procedures: 

  •  Please check yourself for symptoms. If you have a fever, cough, shortness of breath, nausea, loss of smell, fatigue, or you suspect you may have been exposed, please do not come. There will not be a cancellation fee and we highly recommend you go get tested for COVID-19.
  • Please be on time. You will need to wait in your car and we will meet you at the entrance at  your scheduled appointment time. (You can text me when you get here.) 
  • Please wash or sanitize your hands upon arrival. 
  • Please adhere to all social distancing and hygiene signs. 
  • Masks must be worn at all times in all public space in the office. NO EXCEPTIONS!
  • You will be required to sign an in-person appointment waiver indicating you understand the risks of contagion and will not hold us or the practice liable for your exposure. 
  • Please wash or sanitize your hands after the appointment. 


Walking appointments: 

When availability allows, Chris offers walking appointments to those who desire them. All the same criteria as above apply, except we will meet in a designated location to walk and talk instead. There are a few extra things to consider though. 

  • Privacy. We might see someone we know out in public. We can make a plan on how to handle this situation but I am a known therapist in town and you will be seen with me. 
  • Confidentiality. Meeting in a public place, even if it is pretty secluded does have some risk of your personal information being overheard. 
  • Weather. It might rain (or hail flaming meteors) which could cause us to have to revert to teletherapy or reschedule unexpectedly.
