How can teletherapy work? How can you provide care remotely?

I provide telehealth therapy in the state of VA. There are some conditions which may not be the most appropriate for remote care including those who might benefit from additional intervention by community case managers, medication management services or those experiencing suicidal ideation.

Life can be tough and there is so much that isn't under our control. Getting overwhelmed with emotions or self-critical thoughts only adds unnecessary suffering and therapy can help. I utilize a collaborative person-centered perspective that recognizes your expertise in your life. My practice is based upon use of mindfulness, narrative, cognitive and behavioral techniques to improve function in daily life. All of the work that I do is rooted in empathy and I am passionate about assisting clients through work, home and family stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, disability, grief and other life transitions.

I utilize a HIPAA compliant Telehealth platform to provide services to you conveniently in the privacy of your home; single office space, or other environment that is conducive towards your self expression.  Virtual therapy is an excellent way in which a client and therapist can communicate in real time without being in a physical office space.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist, practicing virtually in New York City and New York State. I provide individual psychotherapy to clients across the lifespan from the emerging young adult population to those with a few years of lived experienced behind them.   I am a graduate of Columbia University with a Master of Science degree in Social Work, completed intensive foundational training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy through the DBT Training Program and Lab under the direction of Dr. Andre Ivanoff.  I received additional training in prolonged exposure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing and behavioral activation training in my studies.  As a post-graduate, I pursued further advancement   based in evidence based practices of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), CBT (through the Beck Institute), DBT, Emotionally Focused Treatment, and Complicated Grief Treatment (through the Center for Prolonged Grief at Columbia University), with additional focus on mindfulness based practices and traditional psychodynamic psychotherapy. I believe in fully supporting my clients to be the drivers of their own life and I’m the GPS — I can help you arrive to where you want to be, and I empower you to make choices that feel most effective, validating and free spirited.  

Yes, I offer remote therapy options in addition to in person therapy

I have a deep passion for supporting others through their journey towards general wellbeing. Through a blend of therapeutic modalities including mindfulness techniques, trauma-informed care, cognitive processing therapy, I work with clients to develop effective coping strategies to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. I follow a holistic approach to therapy and place emphasis on total mind body wellness. I understand that the first step towards seeking therapy can feel overwhelming and I strive to create a safe space where you can feel heard and supported.

I believe Telehealth is so convenient for clients. I see people who otherwise would have postponed therapy because going to the therapist’s office requires too much time and/or energy. The whole therapy experience (driving to therapy, being on the waiting room, having the therapy session and driving back home) can take up 1.5-3 hours depending on traffic and your city. Sometimes we don't have that time to invest because of our busy daily routines. But, with Telehealth you just connect in a private room to the session and you are done. Saving on average 1.5 - 2 extra hours!

Beatriz is a bilingual and multicultural counselor who believes that human connection and wholesome relationships help people with healing. Beatriz believes every person has their own formula for transformation and healing and therapy is a pathway to achieve it.

Yes, at this time, I only provide telehealth through a secure portal.

I come from a multicultural background and a multi-generational household where old values meet the new modern ideas. I have a big family so relationships have always been my passion.

I work with my couples via Zoom and I have found that my clients really like the fact that they don’t have to travel and they are more comfortable in their own home and sometimes I have the couple go to separate rooms and found that they have a easier time saying what they want because they are not as intimidated by their partner being in the room and blowing up at them.  Also my clients tend to not miss a session as easily.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and I also specialize in addiction, however I am only offering couples therapy and look forward to hearing from you soon

Phone calls and zoom sessions allow you to have appointments at your convenience. People report feeling safer and more comfortable opening up from their own homes than in an office. Under the weather? We can still meet remotely. I’ve had a decrease in missed or cancelled appointments when clients can attend remotely.

Samantha is a Psychologist, Speaker, Best Selling Author, and Host of The Be Ruthless Show, a podcast dedicated to Making Noise and Breaking Stigmas.  She helps people around the world turn their pain into their power by guiding them to be their true selves not who they think they need to be, by embracing their differences and recognizing that their perceived weaknesses are their biggest strengths, and by living life on their own terms.  Samantha’s mission is to change the way the world views both grief and mental health, so people can speak about whatever issues they have and get the help they not only need but deserve without fear of judgment, labels, and repercussions  Samantha is the proud founder of Griefhab, a 24/7 community open to anyone who has experienced a loss. After personally living through this, Sam realized just how much support she needed on a daily basis. She vowed to create these services so that others would have more support available in their times of need. In her free time, you can find Sam and her pups, Sassy and Dallas, on one of their outdoor adventures. They never miss an opportunity to explore their beautiful surroundings. Music fuels Sam’s soul, family means everything to her, and honoring her late husband, Jim, and making him proud gives her life daily purpose.

Many clients may be hesitant to engage in remote sessions, I, however, see it as an asset in therapy provision. Therapists can reach clients outside of their immediate geographic area and offer their expertise to communities that may not have great mental health services availability. Clients may feel that it’s easier to find time for sessions when they don’t have to travel for weekly appointments and can sign in remotely from the location of their choice. In addition, clients who have certain physical limitations can now be connected to a therapist and receive necessary support. Remote therapy sessions are as affective as in-person appointments, and most therapeutic interventions can still be used to have a productive therapy experience.

My goal is to establish a collaborative relationship with the client directed toward wholeness and their personal growth and transformation. I strive to move away from the stigma and labeling that traditional abnormal psychology offers and focus on my client's strengths and mutually developed goals to help them reach their highest potential. Body-mind-spirit integration is my personal life foundation, and it is the core of my therapeutic approach. I provide individual and couples therapy for the issues of depression, anxiety, self-esteem, communication issues, relationship difficulties, life transitions, coping with stress, chronic illness, cancer, bereavement counseling, caregiver support, maternal mental health, and many more. I integrate my unique specialty as a Certified MARI (Mandala Assessment Research Instrument) Practitioner, one of the very few fully certified in the US, to offer a comprehensive psychological assessment and turn this modality into a life-changing experience. I’m an eclectic therapist, combining different approaches that are geared toward individual goals of each client and ultimately lead to their own path of healing and overall wellness.

I use several HIPA compliant Websites including Doxy.me; Google Meet; and Zoom. Presently, with the COVID pandemic, if someone is not comfortable with Telehealth, we can utilize the telephone for conversations.
