Online Counseling

Online counseling a great way to stay connected with your therapist. With the need to balance a busy work life, home life, and responsibilities it is not always possible to attend traditional face-to-face counseling. However, technology has progressed over recent years to make online counseling a more accessible option to all.

 

Benefits of Online Therapy

With the advancements of technology, online therapy allows you to still have face to face communication with a counselor. No travel or waiting times mean less time is taken out of your day. This is particularly beneficial if you have a busy schedule.

For some people, online therapy is a more comfortable option. If you use technology regularly, you may find it easier to talk to a therapist through these means.

Another benefit of online therapy is accessibility. Lack of transportation, living in a rural area, or managing a disability can sometimes make it difficult to attend a face to face therapy session. Online therapy removes these barriers giving you the option to access support from a location that suits you.

 

How Online Counseling Works

Video calls with your therapist are held via, Skype, Zoom, Facetime, or any other HIPAA compliant platform both you and the therapist are comfortable using. Audio sessions can also be conducted by phone.   Your session is arranged at a mutual time between you and your counselor and remains confidential.
