ABOUT OUR TELEHEALTH PROGRAM

WNY Psychotherapy Services - Orchard Park is now providing telephone and video therapy services. We are accepting new patients as well as continuing service with existing patients through a HIPAA-compliant website.

Telehealth visits are a great way to communicate with our therapists. Whether you've been taking advantage of therapy for some time or you're interested in starting sessions, we can help you arrange a telehealth appointment.

Please feel free to speak with our intake department with any questions you may have regarding a teletherapy session with our providers.

WHAT ARE TELEHEALTH SERVICES?

Telehealth, or telemedicine, allows your health care provider to deliver their services without having to visit you in person. Taking advantage of virtual options allows you to use your computer, tablet, or smart phone to connect with our office from the comfort of your own home. This is beneficial if you have a busy schedule, small children, or a disability that makes it difficult to leave your home.

There are multiple options when it comes to telehealth services:

• Live Meetings: Keep your appointments with our team over the phone or video chat. Keeping a telehealth appointment makes it easier for patients to fit visits into their busy schedules and allows our office to schedule appointments more efficiently.
• Send and Receive Messages: Secure messaging makes it easier than ever to communicate with our clinical psychologists, even if you need to get in touch between appointments.

The internet can enhance our daily lives in so many ways. Use it to improve your mental health by scheduling your telehealth visit with our providers. 95% of Americans own cell phones and over 77% own smart phones; it is easier than ever to incorporate modern technology into your medical care. Telehealth services have made mental health treatment more accessible than ever. Reach out to us today to learn more!

SIX BENEFITS OF TELEHEALTH SERVICES

No transportation time or costs - Virtual counseling services allow patients to access clinical psychologists without needing to set aside time or money for transportation. 

No need to take time off from work - Telehealth services give patients the flexibility to meet with a clinical psychologist during smaller windows of time.

Eliminate the need to find childcare - For those who have small children, telehealth services are convenient because they do not need to figure out childcare for the time they are away. Instead, they can schedule a meeting with a clinical psychologist during nap time.

Access to specialists - No matter where you are, you can have access to counseling through our telehealth services. 

Less time in the waiting room - Meeting with a clinical psychologist online significantly reduces the wait time. There will most likely be little or no wait when you are using telehealth services.

Better health - Telehealth services are just as effective as meeting with a clinical psychologist in person. You will be improving your overall mental health by getting mental health tips from a certified medical professional.

Our team of clinical psychologists at WNY Psychotherapy Services - Amherst offers marriage counseling, child therapy, family counseling, grief counseling, anxiety treatment, and depression help services.
