WHERE DO YOU TURN FOR HELP IF YOU ARE?
- Physically disabled with a neurological condition such as Multiple Sclerosis, Muscular Dystrophy, Huntington’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, stroke, traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury?
- Diagnosed with a cognitive impairment such as early stage or early onset Alzheimer’s Disease, Lewy Body Dementia, Vascular Dementia, other dementing condition or traumatic brain injury?
- A disabled LGBT person?
- A Caregiver and/or family member of a loved one with a physical disability or a cognitive impairment?
CLINICAL SPECIALTIES
I specialize in working with adults who have a variety of medical conditions, including neurological disorders,
physically disabling conditions, aging-related conditions and other impairments. My clients also include
Caregivers and LGBT persons who live with a disabling condition.
COUNSELING/PSYCHOTHERAPY AND CONSULTATIONS VIA TELEMEDICINE SESSIONS
I work with clients via telemedicine sessions.
Telemedicine sessions are conducted via videoconferencing, similar to Skype but HIPAA-compliant*, and/or over the telephone . The videoconferencing software is free and is easy to use on your computer or tablet.
Telemedicine offers important advantages over in-office sessions to people who:
- No longer drive or have limited access to transportation
- Are physically disabled and have mobility issues
- Have busy schedules
- Have no professionals in their area with the particular expertise I offer
Please contact me to discuss whether telemedicine sessions are appropriate for you and your needs.
