Online Empowerment Counseling for Teen Girls in New York - Georgia Wimberly, LCSW-R

Girls love the convenience and flexibility of online sessions 

Online FAQs

Why is your practice online?

Online Counseling consists of counseling sessions via secure, HIPPA-compliant video conferencing technology. It's like FaceTime but better! As a Board Certified-Telemental Health (BC-TMH) provider, I am able to offer this service to girls that live or attend college in New York State. Girls love the convenience and flexibility of having sessions in the comfort of their own home, dorm room, or private location of their choice.

What are the benefits of Online Counseling?

Video sessions are...

  • Parent Approved.  Parents love knowing that their daughter has personal support when needed. 

  • Convenient.  No rushing to get to the office.  No missed appointments due to weather or lack of transportation.

  • Comfortable.  You can be sitting in the comfort of your home, dorm room, or private location of choice.

  • Cost Efficient.  The cost is the same as in-office sessions but you save time and travel expenses.

  • Flexible.  Online Counseling allows us to schedule around school, work, and social activities.

  • Accessible.  Girls living anywhere in New York State can access my counseling services year-around...even when at college!

  • Private.  No waiting room.

What do I need for video sessions?

1. A computer, tablet, or smartphone with a webcam.

2. A reliable, high speed internet connection.

3. An email link from me to access my HIPPA-compliant video conferencing service.

4. A private location.

Girls who are...

  • Suicidal, homicidal, or violent (past or present)

  • Engaging in self-harming behaviors

  • Abusing or have abused drugs and alcohol

  • Experiencing or have experienced severe mental issues
