Albemarle Counseling Associates, PLLC  is committed to the safety and well-being of our clients and those who visit our office. During these unprecedented times the ability to adapt to change is important. Prior to 3/17/2020 I was resistant to even considering utilizing TELEHEALTH. On 3/18/2020 mid-day, however, I made the decision to consider the option and at 4PM I did my first TeleCounseling session. I have chosen to partner with SecureVideo which is fully HIPPA compliant and encrypts all data to keep your information secure. It is also integrated with my EMR software. I will be providing this option for current clients as needed. PLEASE, LET ME KNOW IF YOU WISH TO USE THIS OPTION.

The office is open for business and I am taking all cleaning and sanitizing measures necessary to help prevent the spread of the Coronavirus. I will continue to stay informed of recommended best practices.

I also want to keep clients informed and up to date, so you can click the link below to get Up-To-Date information from THE CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL – CDC information related to Corona virus

1. Offering TeleHealth counseling as an option for all current active clients. In some instances, I will consider TeleHealth for a new client.

2. I am doing daily cleaning of all surfaces in the office including door knobs and hard surfaces throughout the office. I AM SUSPENDING COFFEE & TEA SERVICE FOR THE TIME BEING. Plan accordingly.

3. Washing hands is critical so, I am washing between clients and providing soap and sanitizer (if available) for your protection. There will also be plenty of disposable paper towels available.

4. I am NOT going to be shaking hands. An elbow bump is safer.

1. Take care of yourself and family.

2. Please, switch your face-to-face session to a TeleHealth session if you or anyone you have been in contact with tests positive or has symptoms.
