Telehealth therapy for families who need a flexible path.

Clinically appropriate online support for parents, teens, adults, and some children around ages 8-9 and older depending on fit, goals, and what your family needs.

Roots to Branches offers telehealth as part of the Aurora and Wheaton care path when virtual support makes clinical sense.

Flexible support

Sometimes the right next step needs to fit real family life.

Telehealth can make therapy more accessible when schedules, childcare, sick kids, transitions, or distance make in-person care harder. It can be especially useful for parents, teens, and adults who need steady support without adding another commute.

For children, telehealth fit depends on age, goals, attention, privacy, family support, and clinical needs. Roots to Branches generally considers telehealth more appropriate for children around ages 8-9 and older when the format supports the work.

When telehealth helps

Support when in-person care is harder to hold.

Telehealth is not automatically the right format for every concern, but it can be a steady option when virtual care fits the person and goals.

Parent support

Coaching and caregiver support when childcare, schedules, or sick kids make office visits harder.

Teen counseling

Online support for teens when privacy, engagement, and clinical fit make telehealth appropriate.

Adult therapy

Flexible support for stress, transitions, relationship strain, or family needs.

Child fit

Telehealth may be appropriate for children around ages 8-9 and older depending on clinical fit.

Related support

Telehealth can support several branches of care.

These pages help families understand which service path may fit best in person or through telehealth.

Common questions

Before you request an appointment.

Who is telehealth usually best for?

Telehealth is often useful for parents, teens, and adults when clinically appropriate. It may also be appropriate for children around ages 8-9 and older depending on fit, goals, attention, privacy, and family support.

Do both offices offer telehealth support?

Yes. Telehealth can be part of the care path across both the Aurora and Wheaton offices when clinically appropriate.

Is telehealth available for play therapy?

Telehealth fit for children and play-based work depends on age, goals, attention, family support, and clinical fit. The intake process can help clarify whether in-person care or telehealth makes more sense.

Can parent coaching happen through telehealth?

Yes. Telehealth is often useful for parent coaching because caregivers may need support around schedules, childcare, sick kids, or family logistics.
