About Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services | Psychological Consultation Center

At Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services, our team of experts specialize in assessing the relationship between behavior and brain functioning. We provide assessments for children, adults and older adults through a variety of health care professionals, such as psychologists, neuropsychologists and a psychiatrist. Our assessments are conducted using state-of-the-art tests, clinical history interviews, discussions with family members, and reviews of school and medical records. We also provide Forensic Psychiatric and Psychological Services such as disability requests, fitness for duty, personal injury, medical negligence, guardianship and testamentary capacity, as well as criminal services including competency to stand trial, legal sanity, child abuse, sentencing, and witness competency. At Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services, our goal is to provide in-depth understanding of a person’s strengths and weaknesses in order to yield helpful recommendations for short and long-term treatment planning. We strive to work closely with school systems, family doctors, and other health care organizations to ensure evaluation results are used to obtain the best possible intervention or treatment.

Is online therapy actually effective?
Research shows that for many issues—such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties—online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions. What often matters most is finding a therapist you connect with and staying consistent over time.

When is online therapy a better fit than in-person?
Online therapy is ideal if you:
  • have a busy or changing schedule,
  • live far from providers or have limited transport,
  • prefer the privacy and comfort of your own space,
  • travel frequently or split time between locations.
For many people, this flexibility is what makes it possible to actually stay in therapy.

Is online therapy private and secure?
Reputable online therapy platforms use encrypted connections and secure apps that are designed for confidential healthcare communication. Sessions are held in a private space of your choosing, which can feel safer than a public waiting room.
See trusted online therapy platforms →
How do costs compare with in-person therapy?
Online therapy can sometimes be more affordable overall: there are no travel costs, less time away from work or family, and many platforms offer predictable weekly pricing. The value often comes from being able to attend regularly without extra friction.
