*Edited: The HPS Office is now closed to in-person or face to face therapy sessions, effective 12:00 on March 19, 2020 for the time being, due to the Shelter in Place order given by the California governor. We will open our doors and allow in-person sessions again when the order has lifted and it is safe.
Telehealth sessions are still available from the comfort and safety of your own home.

In light of current events and the contagious nature of COVID-19, the clinicians at Hilber Psychological Services request that all clients experiencing cold or flu like symptoms do not attend in-person sessions at the HPS office. We are able and happy to provide Telehealth sessions through our secure, HIPAA compliant video portal. If you have not attended a session with us using Telehealth before, your therapist can help instruct you on how to set up the connection on your computer or mobile device. Our clinicians have also been encouraged to stay home and offer video sessions if any of us experience symptoms indicative of COVID-19 or other contagious illness. The health and safety of our clients and staff are our priority.

Here are the steps we are taking to help prevent spread of germs to protect you and our staff so we can provide necessary services:

• Offering Telehealth to all clients when clinically appropriate

• Encouraging clients to reschedule or cancel 24 hours in advance if they have flu or respiratory symptoms, or to choose Telehealth instead.

• Setting up a hand washing station

• Asking all clients & families to wash hands when entering the waiting room and using hand sanitizer before and after entering office rooms

• Providing information for COVID-19 facts, hand washing, and Telehealth options. 

• Completing steps to ensure doors, furniture, toys, etc are clean

• Completing UV light disinfectant in our offices & the waiting room

• Keeping up to date with the latest information with the CDC and local services. 

Talk to your therapist about Telehealth Sessions for you and your family. Some may prefer to attend therapy in person and while the office will be available, Telehealth is very helpful and can provide the necessary support for many clients.

Please let us know if you have any questions! 

Sincerely,
Tanya Hilber, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist, PSY24479
