All sessions are conducted through a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, making counseling accessible and convenient from the comfort of home. Clients only need a private space and a device with internet access, camera, and microphone. Upstream Counseling focuses on creating a safe, supportive relationship where clients feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools to create meaningful change and build a life they love.
