Learn morePremier Teletherapy Services
Virtual therapy provides convenient, effective, and accessible mental health support by eliminating the need to commute. It allows clients to attend sessions from familiar, comfortable spaces, often resulting in lower no-show rates and greater long-term treatment adherence compared to traditional, in-office therapy.
Easier Scheduling
Teletherapy often provides broader availability and easier accommodation for people juggling work, school, or childcare.
Reduced Wait Times
Work with me, a licensed professional miles away rather than being limited to a short list of nearby providers.
Privacy and Comfort
Doing therapy from your own home can ease anxiety and make it easier to open up.
Increased Confidentiality
Teletherapy provides a discrete way to get help without the stigma of sitting in a physical waiting room.
Safe Spaces
The added layer of privacy gives clients total control over who is around during sessions.

Eleanor Raymond, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and New Mexico. I obtained my Master's degree in Social Work from Tulane University in 2022. Before my move to Lake County, I served populations in New Orleans, Louisiana and Albuquerque, New Mexico.
I have worked extensively with children and families in clinical settings. I am passionate about encouraging children to express themselves through art and play. As someone with both personal and professional experience navigating chronic illness, I believe in the interdependence of physical and mental health. I am a huge proponent of spending time in nature and taking care of the body. I believe that everyone has the capacity to change their own mind and to tap into an innate wisdom about the self. Humility is an important value for me, so I try to always be learning.
I advocate for social justice in my community and believe in empowering and uplifting marginalized voices. My services are LGBTQIA+ affirming and Anti-racist.

New Mexico
In-network insurance plans
In-network
In-network providers have contracts with your health insurance plan to accept pre-negotiated, discounted rates, meaning you pay significantly less and your costs count toward your annual deductible.
Out-of-network
Out-of-network providers lack these agreements, allowing them to bill you full price and expose you to balance billing. The breakdown between these two coverage types directly impacts your medical care:
Self Pay
Self Pay is available at the standard rate of $125 per session. Income-based sliding-scale options are also available upon request.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is required for online therapy sessions?
-
Participants need an internet-enabled device. For children, it is preferable to use a device larger than a phone (computer or tablet) because of the interactive activities. It is also vital that therapy clients have a quiet, private area where they can speak freely during online sessions.
- Do you testify in court for custody disputes?
-
The short answer is no. My role is to support the child through such disputes, not to take sides.
- How does confidentiality work for children receiving therapy?
-
If a child is old enough to consent to therapy (in CA ages 12+ and in NM ages 14+) the content of their sessions remains confidential unless there is imminent danger.
For children whose parents have consented to therapy, parents are entitled to general updates and information pertinent to the child's health and safety.
Therapists are mandated reporters, therefore, I must report any reasonable suspicion of child abuse and neglect to local child protective services.
- How can I support my child who is receiving therapy?
-
Children are deeply influenced by the dynamics around them. It can be helpful for parents who have enrolled their children in therapy to enroll themselves in therapy as well.
It's also important to trust the process. Cultivating rapport between therapist and client can take several months. I will update parents about progress made, without disclosing the details of what was said in session. It is generally best if parents can resist the urge to pry about what was said during session, and instead be mindful of how they are showing up in the child's life.
