Guidelines for connecting with us.
Please login to the online service a few minutes before the appointment time. The psychologist will then call you when they have fully prepared for your session.
Standard fees apply for video appointments. To access telehealth consultations you will need access to a quiet, private space; and the appropriate device, i.e. smartphone, laptop, iPad, computer with a camera, and a reliable broadband internet connection. Using your phone’s 4G connection will generally also work well, though please be aware of your data limits, as video consultations take about 700mb per hour (0.7GB).
You are responsible for the costs associated with setting up the technology needed so you can access telehealth services. The privacy of any form of communication via the internet is potentially vulnerable and limited by the security of the technology used.
