Support for you or your relationship.

Before your session
A little preparation protects your time.
Choose a private room, a reliable connection, and a device you can use comfortably for video. Headphones may help you speak more privately. Give yourself a few minutes to settle in and close other notifications.
Tell us where you will be physically located during appointments. Clinician eligibility depends on that location, so discuss travel or a move with the practice before attending from somewhere new.
For couples, we will discuss where each partner will join and how to make room for both people to participate privately.
