Online Therapy

Written By Sylvan Streightiff

I offer online therapy via a secure video conference service (zoom), VR headset, or by phone, to clients located anywhere in the state of California.

Is Online Therapy effective?

Online therapy is effective for many situations, contact me here and we can discuss the specifics of your situation in a free consultation.

What are your fees for Online Therapy?

See details on Payment Information.

Do you offer Online Therapy to families, teens, and children?

Yes! I offer online therapy, art therapy, and virtual reality (VR) therapy for children, teens, and adults (available for individual, couples, and family sessions). I also offer therapy for indviduals and couples. Art Therapy and somatic integration works alongside traditional talk therapy.

What are the requirements for using Zoom video conferencing?

All you need is the following:

  • A fast, reliable Internet connection. Generally, if you can stream videos (e.g. YouTube or Netflix) on your computer, your connection is probably good enough for use with Zoom.

  • A Windows PC or Mac computer equipped with a camera, a microphone and the Zoom desktop software installed.

  • If you are in a noisy environment, a headphone or earbuds with a built-in microphone will help with the audio quality.

  • You may also use a mobile phone or tablet (Apple or Android) but generally the smaller screen and lower audio quality makes this method less effective than a full-size PC or laptop computer.

I don’t have Zoom installed on my computer already, how do I get started?

Zoom is free, easy to install, and you do not need to create an account to join a video session with me. Click on the link below to install Zoom on your Windows PC or Mac Computer:

How do I learn more about Zoom video conferencing?

Visit the Zoom FAQ pages to learn more.

What if I don’t have internet connection or the quality does not support video conferencing?

I offer therapy by phone which can also serve as a backup if your internet connection stops working.
