Telehealth Appointments

Telehealth makes it possible to access therapy and assessments from the comfort of your own home. Whether you live locally, regionally, or simply prefer the flexibility of online sessions, telehealth allows children, adolescents, and adults to receive the same compassionate, evidence-based care as in person.

Telehealth can make accessing support easier by offering:

• Convenience — no travel time or waiting rooms;
• Flexibility — fits around school, work, and family life;
• Comfort — many people feel more relaxed at home;
• Accessibility — available to families across Queensland and beyond; and
• Privacy — delivered securely and confidentially online.

As young children often have a lot more difficulty engaging in telehealth appointments, Belle only provides telehealth sessions to clients who are aged 12 years old and above. Some younger clients may still be suitable for telehealth and if you think this may apply, please contact us to discuss.

While telehealth is very convenient and allows therapy to be conducted from home, there are still some expectations that should be followed include:

• Arriving on time;
• Sitting in an area that is safe, and allows for confidentiality and privacy; and
• Not engaging in other activities (e.g. driving) during the session.
