At Positive Perspectives Counseling Centers, we believe that mental health care should be accessible, flexible, and safe. That’s why we’re proud to offer Telehealth services—a convenient way to connect with a caring, qualified therapist from wherever you feel most comfortable.
Whether you’re at home, in your office, or anywhere in Ohio with a solid internet connection and some privacy, we’re just a click away.
What Telehealth Can Offer You
Our compassionate Telehealth clinicians are trained to deliver the same high-quality care online as they do in person. Many offer both in-person and virtual appointments, and together, you’ll design a plan that works for your unique life, needs, and schedule.
Telehealth can be especially helpful if you:
- Prefer the ease of connecting from home
- Have a tight or unpredictable schedule
- Live in a rural area or face transportation barriers
- Simply feel more at ease in your own space
We’re here to meet you where you are—both literally and emotionally.
Your Privacy Is Our Priority
We understand how important privacy is when it comes to personal care. That’s why we use Doxy.me, a HIPAA-compliant video platform built specifically for health care—not Zoom or other general-use services.
Download Printable Information SheetTo help keep your sessions as private as possible, we suggest:
- Using headphones or earbuds
- Choosing a quiet room and closing the door
- Letting others in your space know not to disturb you during sessions
Your safety and comfort matter deeply to us—and we take every measure to protect your trust.

We’re Here When You’re Ready
Wherever you are in your journey, you don’t have to go it alone. Whether online or in person, we’re here with open hearts and open minds, ready to support you every step of the way.

Tele-Mental Health Pre-Session Checklist
Below is a list of issues to consider before starting your video session today:
- If it is your first session, your counselor will ask you to identify yourself with a PHOTO ID and where you are located.
- Do a bit of room preparation before getting started. Do you have tissues nearby? Have your phones been unplugged/ringers turned off? If you are using an app to do online EMDR, do you have your phone set to Do Not Disturb in your settings? If you live with other people, is there a sign that indicates the room is occupied on the door? Do you have a clock visible to keep track of your time?
- Conduct a quick audio and visual assessment and make adjustments as necessary (e.g., are your window blinds causing a glare? Is there something interfering with the microphone? Is someone vacuuming in the next room?) It is helpful to know where your camera is placed on your device and place it so your eyes are right across from it.
- Please let your counselor know if anyone is in the room with you, or unexpectedly comes in. If you are in an unsafe situation and someone has entered the room, please choose a word which will signal this to your counselor IMMEDIATELY, even if it is out of context.
- Are you expecting any interruptions to your session? Please attempt to remove any disruptions to the flow of the session and if impossible, let your counselor know if you expect guests, delivery people, repair people, etc. PLEASE TURN YOUR CELLPHONE COMPLETELY OFF FOR THE HOUR OF YOUR APPOINTMENT.
- If relevant, where are your children and is there provision for their care while you are in session?
- Do your clothes reflect that you are ready to have a professional encounter? Please only choose clothes that you would wear if you were attending a session in person.
- ARE YOU STATIONARY AND COMFORTABLE? It is very distracting and sometimes disorienting to have a session while you are moving. Please choose a comfortable space and stay put during session if at all possible.
- Don’t hesitate to ask any questions!
- If you are having technical issues, contact support@doxy.me
Just a quick heads-up: Your counselor and our Doxy.me video platform do not record sessions. Our electronic record system (TherapyScribe) may capture audio only to create a secure, encrypted transcript so we can write accurate clinical notes. It’s stored safely and used only for your documentation. Please don’t record sessions yourself unless we’ve talked about it and given clear permission. If you have any questions, just ask—we’re glad to help.
Videoconferencing affords you all the same levels of confidentiality and professionalism that you would experience with in-person work. You will also experience the same level of clinical excellence you have come to expect from PPInc., whether you choose in-person or telehealth treatment.
