Telehealth Services

Pawnee happily offers telehealth therapy sessions to those clients who need or prefer to complete treatment from a distance. Barriers such as transportation should not stop our clients from receiving the care they deserve, and there are many benefits to telehealth sessions.

Benefits of Telehealth:

Ease of access - any client can attend any session with a therapist, regardless of location
Attend from the comfort of your home - or really anywhere! If you're not comfortable visiting a therapist's office, telehealth may be a great option for you
Added privacy - because you can attend from anywhere, you don't have to worry about anyone in your community knowing that you are attending therapy
Efficiency - no driving to and from the appointment, or waiting in the lobby. Just log in from your phone or computer!
Safety - no more missing sessions due to bad weather or illnesses

How to Schedule a Telehealth Session with Pawnee:

Call 785-587-4300 and mention that you would like to receive telehealth therapy services.

Find a private and comfortable space where you can talk and listen freely
Check your lighting. It is best not to have bright lights behind you, but to light from the front.
Try to set your device up so you don't have to hold it.
Be sure the microphone is not obstructed (this can cause you to cut out).
On mobile devices, it may work better to set up horizontally.
