Teletherapy Services Only.
2022 Service Update: Telka's mental health services are now exclusively Telemedicine for current and former clients only. The good news is that Telka's tools and video recommendations are available to use on your own or with the psychotherapist of your choice. Telka now offers free training for Lansing therapists as a "give back and rise up" to the profession she loves in hopes that former clients will connect with brief, solution-focused, CBT counseling in the future.
