Tele-Services (Virtual and Telephone-based Sessions):

Genesis Mental Well Being Centre offers in-person, virtual (video) and telephone-based options for assessment and treatment services. Virtual and telephone-based sessions are also mental health services, and these have the same purpose or intention as treatment sessions (or psychotherapy) that is conducted face-to-face at Genesis Mental Well Being Centre. Your Clinician will discuss which mode of service is recommended based on your needs, and changes can be made throughout the course of your treatment with respect to the mode of therapy you both decide to use.

Virtual care requires the use of a webcam or smartphone, and a link to the virtual session will be provided by e-mail prior to the session. We highly recommend you test your video/audio settings the day before your session if needed. In the event of technical problems during your session, a backup plan (e.g., a phone number where you can be reached) will be used to restart the session or to reschedule it. Your Clinician may elect to use a different videoconferencing platform; the benefits/risks of that platform will be discussed with you prior to beginning virtual sessions.

Telephone-based sessions will involve your clinician contacting you by phone at your scheduled appointment time. Please note that in some cases, the Caller ID may show up as “Unknown” or blocked. We ask you to ensure you are available and can answer the call at the scheduled appointment time.

Virtual and telephone-based sessions are convenient and may be used when in-person sessions are not possible. Engaging in treatment using virtual care or by telephone encompasses risks that should also be considered. Please note the following rights and risks in using virtual and telephone-based care:

The laws and professional standards that apply to regular mental health services apply to virtual and telephone-based care.

There are exceptions to client confidentiality policies that exist for regular therapy; these also apply to virtual and telephone-based services. The exceptions are provided in the “Disclosure of Personal Health Information” section below.

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. It will not affect your right to further treatment.

Your Clinician has the right, at any time, to determine if virtual and/or telephone-based sessions are not appropriate for your care. Should this be determined, your Clinician will suggest alternative ways to continue your therapy.

Despite best efforts to ensure high standards of technology, there is always a risk that services could be disrupted or distorted by unforeseen technical problems.

Consent to the use of virtual and telephone-based sessions indicates your agreement with the following conditions:

Confidentiality still applies for mental health teleservices, and the session will not be recorded by the Clinician or yourself without permission from the other person(s).

It is important to be in a quiet, private space that is free of distractions during the session.

It is important to use a secure internet connection rather than public/free Wi-Fi.

For child/adolescent clients, the permission of your parent/legal guardian (and their contact information) is required to engage in tele-sessions.

Use of virtual and telephone-based sessions is voluntary. Please advise us if you no longer wish to engage in teleservices and we will discuss alternative options with you at that time.
