What is Tele Psychology?
Tele Psychology refers to face-to-face visits online, which establish a formal doctor-patient relationship. We use a HIPAA compliant electronic practice management and video conferencing tool. It allows accessibility with your doctor while avoiding vehicle traffic and waiting rooms. For any type of visit, you can maintain confidentiality and comfort from the privacy of your home. When in treatment, you will receive thoughtful suggestions to make a proper space at home that gives you similar comfort to that of a traditional therapy couch.
Psychotherapy Assessment
$250 per hour
A psychodynamic (analytic) assessment for psychotherapy covers two visits. It combines a computer-based symptom assessment; a face-to-face interview for the presenting complaint and a comprehensive history (physical, psychological, environmental, social, occupational, and spiritual domains); and a face-to-face discussion of diagnostic impressions and initial treatment formulation.
Psychotherapy
Individual: $175 per hour
Psychotherapy is scheduled twice weekly. Psychodynamic therapy is based on psychoanalytic theory and principles, and Christian integration is rooted in a biblical foundation. It focuses on increasing self-understanding and deepening insight into personal conflicts and conditions which underlie complaints. It is depth therapy that is cooperative and active in nature. Analytic psychotherapy can be lengthy, and can often lead to increased courage, objectivity, and spiritual wisdom; and to better relationships.
Consultation
Individual:$175 per hour
Couple:$200 per hour
Strategic consultation is based on short-term problem solving and is advisory in nature. It is for highly motivated individuals who value results. It involves consultative discussions that result with direction about how to approach a problem. Consultation is also sought by people wanting a second opinion in matters involving their mental health. Consultation does not necessarily require a formal clinical evaluation; although second opinion consults may warrant it. Relevant recommendations and referrals may be provided.
Psychological Evaluation
Evaluation: $2,400
Results Consult: $200 per hour
A psychological evaluation is a comprehensive and formalized way of examining and explaining a person’s issue. It is made up of multiple psychological tests, an in-depth clinical interview, a comprehensive history, a mental status exam, a collateral interview, a records review, identification of pathology and strengths, diagnostic impressions, relevant recommendations regarding referral questions, and a synthesized report.
