Don’t you need to see my child in person to assess their behavioural issues?

No. Children rarely misbehave in appointments, and if they do, they are more likely to do so in the comfort of their own home. A video appointment is perfectly capable of observing children’s behaviour.

Won’t my child listen more if face-to-face?

Possibly, but they also forget what they’ve been told by the time they get home. It’s much more important to have strategies that are easily implemented at home.

Maybe you can get to the bottom of what’s causing the behaviour if you talk to my child in person?

Talking to a child can easily lead you up the garden path – talking to a parent will usually provide a much better explanation of what’s really going on.

Don’t children ‘clam-up’ more with telehealth?

No. It’s much less threatening for children (and adults) compared to clinic-based appointments, and we avoid the issue of children attending a clinic and thinking there’s something wrong with them.

I’m terrible with technology and telehealth seems very complicated.

Technology now makes it very easy, either a phone call or a click on the email link provided. If you’re still worried, just try it once and see how it goes; there’s nothing to loose, and this is often more preferable than waiting for months for a face-to-face appointment.

Does my child need to be there the whole time?

No. Medicare (MHCP referrals) require the child to be present most of the time – this is best discussed in your first appointment. It’s a good idea to have things for a child to do while the adults have a chat.

I have a Telehealth Appointment booked, how do I connect to Telehealth at my appointment time?

You will be emailed a Coviu Telehealth Appointment Link prior to your appointment. If you haven’t received a link, please click on the link at the top of this page to start your ‘Telehealth Appointment Now’.

Can a Telehealth Appointment be just a phone call?

Yes, whatever you prefer. Telephone calls are just as effective, and are often more relaxed and convenient than a video-call. If you would prefer a phone call, just have your phone handy at your appointment time and Simon will call you at your appointment time.

How do I cancel or change my appointment time?

Please send an email to simon.beal@bigpond.com to cancel an appointment. (NOTE: A Cancellation Fee will be charged if 48 hours notice is not provided.)
