Brookside Clinical Services

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the staff at Brookside Clinical Services have been offering telehealth as an alternative to in-person sessions, and we will continue to do so whenever necessary.  However, as transmission trends improve and COVID-19 vaccine distribution begins to rollout in the community, we will eventually start to offer in-person sessions to our clients on a limited basis.  This is an extremely complicated decision to make, both as an organization as well as on an individual basis.  That being said, please understand that each therapist at our practice may have varying degrees of comfort with regard to seeing clients in-person.  We kindly request and appreciate your patience while we continue to navigate through this very difficult and ever-changing situation.

If you are interested in starting therapy with one of our providers, please be sure to specify your own preference with regard to telehealth vs. in-person sessions.  If you are requesting to work with a specific therapist, we will let you know how they are conducting therapy sessions at that time.  

Please be aware that we will have very strict policies and procedures in place to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19.  These include staff symptom screening and temperature scans, client pre-session symptom screening and temperature scans, closed lobby, social distancing, no outside food or beverage, and routine cleaning/disinfecting of seating and surfaces.  Face masks/coverings must be properly worn up and over the mouth and nose at all times.  If you anticipate that any of these policies or procedures may create barriers to your treatment, we ask that you opt for telehealth instead.

We appreciate your patience, kindness, and concern for everyone's health and safety. 

Be well,

Mark Gorzkowski, MS, LCPC
