Telehealth & Psychotherapy
Psychological services are provided via video conferencing in lieu of in-office appointments. With telehealth, you are able to join a session from the comfort of your home.
Dr. Niedermeyer | Dream Wise Therapy utilizes a secure, HIPAA- compliant platform for video services. Privacy and a reliable internet connection are all that is required; when we schedule an appointment, you will receive information and tips from me regarding how to ensure our appointments are seamless and uninterrupted.
Access to quality therapy, particularly depth-oriented therapies like psychoanalytic psychotherapy, can be difficult to find beyond metropolitan areas. Telehealth services allow these important psychological services to be accessed even in rural parts of the state.
Although there are important differences between telepsychotherapy and in-office sessions, current literature suggests that telepsychotherapy “may be effective for a broad range of patients,” in addition to “offering distinct advantages in the building of a trusting psychotherapeutic relationship that in-person psychotherapy cannot” (Kocsis, B., & Yellowlees, P. 2018. Telepsychotherapy and the therapeutic relationship: Principles, advantages, and case examples. Telemedicine and e-Health 2018 24:5, 329-334).
