FAQ
These are some of my Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is online psychotherapy as effective as traditional psychotherapy?
Numerous studies confirm that there are no significant differences in the effectiveness of online psychotherapy compared to traditional psychotherapy (Carlino, 2011; Hanly, 2007; Migone, 2013; Dinu, 2019; Leffert, 2003). Whether psychotherapy is effective or not depends more on the intention and willingness of the patient and the therapist to create a committed relationship rather than the physical or virtual space in which it takes place.
In my clinical experience, over the last seven years, I’ve found that there is something intangible, intimate, and universal about the way individuals relate in psychotherapy that transcends the communication channel.

What are your privacy policies?
Ensuring the utmost privacy and confidentiality for my patients, both in-person and online, is paramount to my practice. To safeguard this, I exclusively utilize “end-to-end encrypted” applications approved by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA). for all patient communication. Any breach of patient confidentiality or divulgence of information that could potentially identify them is considered a serious ethical violation and is strictly prohibited in my practice.
For these reasons, I use Zoom HealthCare which boasts AES encryption, ensuring uninterrupted and high-quality service.
