Personal and Clinical Requirements

Telehealth is an attractive option for many people.  However, under some circumstances it is not suitable because it makes it difficult for the clinician to adequately treat you and manage problems.  Please book an in-person service if you have any of the following:

  • Suicidal intent / significant suicidal thoughts.
  • Self-harming behaviour.
  • Psychosis
  • Disassociation
  • Difficulty managing technology

Technology Requirements

The technology is simple. You require a stable internet and a connected device (phone, tablet, computer). No special software / app is needed. A link is simply sent for you to open.

Most practitioners use Teams for Telehealth Consultations (see below for details).

 

How do I join a Teams Meeting?

You can join a Teams meeting anytime, from any device, whether or not you have a Teams account. If you
don’t have an account, follow these steps to join as a guest.

  1. Go to the meeting invite and select Join Microsoft Teams Meeting.
  2. That’ll open a webpage, where you’ll see two choices: Download the Windows app and Join on the
    web instead. If you join on the web, you can use either Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome. Your
    browser may ask if it’s OK for Teams to use your mic and camera. Be sure to allow it so you’ll be seen
    and heard in your meeting.
  3. Enter your name and choose your audio and video settings. If the meeting room (or another device
    that’s connected to the meeting) is nearby, choose Audio off to avoid disrupting. Select Phone audio if
    you want to listen to the meeting on your mobile phone.
  4. When you’re ready, hit Join now.
  5. This will bring you into the lobby. We’ll notify the meeting organizer that you’re there, and someone in
    the meeting can then admit you
