At Consulting Connection Services, we will sometimes conduct services via telehealth when requested by the client or when the environment does not permit employees to safely conduct in-person services. Our agency has identified two programs that we use regularly, Zoom (in which we have a corporate account) and Google Meets. We will assist you in getting your computer or device setup should you have any challenges in doing so. Below, you will find some information listed on how to access both Zoom and Google Meets.
Signing In
- Go to http://zoom.us and click on Sign In.
- You can use the "e-mail" and "password" that you have created, or use your Google (Gmail or Google App) or Facebook account to sign in with.
- Note: If you do not have a current Zoom account, please click on Sign Up Free to create a new one.
Hosting a Meeting
If you do NOT have the Zoom app installed, go to zoom.us and select "Host a Meeting" to start the installation. If you DO have the App installed, see below -
