My preference is to provide in-office counseling services.  However, I understand that some clients may need or prefer telehealth counseling.

In order to receive videoconference (i.e., telehealth) counseling services, you must be located in North Carolina (the state in which I am licensed to work).  

Clients are seen by appointment only.

Accessing your session

I contract with several organizations in the provision of services.  If you are a client accessing services via Rula or SpringHealth, we will use Zoom to connect - and the link for our meeting will be automatically provided to you in your portal on their system (and possibly sent by email).

For all other clients, we will connect for your session using Psychology Today software.  Here is the link to access your session:

VIRTUAL WAITING ROOM: https://sessions.psychologytoday.com/chadwick-royal

Please click on the link above at your designated appointment time.  I will collect you from the virtual waiting room.

Payment

For self-pay clients, payment for a virtual session is expected before the session begins - just like you may pay a co-pay for your primary care doctor when you check-in for your appointment before going back to see the doctor.  To make payment, please visit this page:

Preparing for your appointment

It will be best for you to be in a private and secure location (not a public place).  On my end, I will be in my Mebane office, door closed. 

You may find it easier to hear if you use a headset/earphones/earbuds - but this is not required.  

Before your appointment, you will need to complete three forms: (1) the Client Information Form, (2) the Electronic Professional Disclosure Statement, and (3) the Telehealth Disclosure Statement.  These forms are linked here, but can also be found under the “Client Forms” area of the website.

 

NOTE: I do not provide telehealth counseling for couples or families.  If telehealth is used to provide services, it is only used for individual counseling.
