Things to Do:

  • We recommend logging on 5-10 minutes before the start of your session.
    • The online platform allows you to test your connection before you start.
  • Use a computer, tablet, or mobile device
    • The device must have a microphone & camera, as well as a strong internet connection
  • Internet connection/WiFi
    • You can use WiFi, a wired connection, or your mobile device (although data plans or plan costs may limit usage).
  • Comfortable clothes
    • This will allow you to move easy during your session.
    • Clothing that is more snug fitting will allow your provider to better see your movements.
  • Space requirements
    • Choose a place that you are comfortable in, with minimal noise and interruptions.
    • Have enough space to move in. This may include needing to lie down somewhere.
    • Make sure you have privacy so that you feel comfortable answering questions and share information.
    • Use a consistent location. This helps your provider know what equipment, furniture, and space are available during your session.

Things to Avoid

  • Be safe. Do not drive or participate in other activities that may cause harm.
  • Avoid busy, noisy areas whenever possible.
  • Avoid areas with a lot of clutter or that lack much space.
  • Avoid big baggy clothing that limits your provider’s ability to see movement.
