Online Therapy
Telehealth Services | Online Therapy w/ Inner Courage, LLC
Email is the way to make your first contact with me. Before scheduling, you can request a 20 min no-charge consultation by phone, or online, to determine if we are a good fit.
If you want to find out if online work feels right include that in your email to me. We can schedule a time to meet online. Once we are scheduled, you can download the VSEE software to be ready for our consultation.
Please Note: You must be in the state of Oregon to utilize my services!
Step 1: VSEE
Contact VSEE Customer Service if needed: 650-560-7140 or support@vsee.com.
I will send you an invitation through VSEE.com using the email address and name you have used when emailing me. Check your spam folder if it doesn’t arrive.
Sign up using the same name and email address. (If ou use a different email address we will have some delays.) I’m at Carol Maker or carol@carolmaker.com and
Let me know once you’ve signed up!
I will call you at the appropriate time. Please refrain from calling me as it can interrupt an ongoing session.
Step 2: Privacy
Find a secure and private area for your session. No one should be able to hear you so you can feel secure.
Step 3: Computer
If at all possible use a desktop computer. I know it’s fun to curl up on the sofa with a phone or iPad, but we are working so desktop is best, and second best is a stable laptop. If you use an iPad make sure it’s stable as well. Holding a device is going to be distracting. We need a stable internet connection (check your internet icon) — you may find better reception in one area of the house.
Step 4: The little things
Earbuds: Have your phone and a headset / earbuds with you. If we have variable reception it’s often easier to just connect voice by phone, and use VSEE for the video portion.
Condiments: Tissues, water, tea, cough drops.
Notes: I take notes and can send you anything you need afterwards.
No Worries: If we have some technical delays I can usually give you some extra time.
