The counseling field is moving in a new direction - to provide more services online. Online counseling is a unique and exciting type of psychotherapy that may be ideal for you!
Teletherapy is providing therapy through a live video connection, over the internet. You are provided the same treatment as you would in person, it's just done through a computer! If you've ever used Skype on your computer or FaceTime on your iPhone, you've used the same type of technology teletherapy uses. Our site is HIPPA compliant.
Increased access - Do you live in an area where there are limited options when it comes to mental health counselors who fit your needs?
Convenience - Making time for therapy can be difficult. Maybe you travel often or have a hectic schedule. Online counseling allows for flexibility so you can scheduled when it's most convenient for you!
Effectiveness - Research has shown that distance counseling is just as beneficial as face-to-face therapy.
Removes barriers - Don't drive or don't have transportation? No problem. Or if you travel frequently, you can still have consistent therapy.
Authenticity - Some people find that the security of being behind a screen allows for their "real" self to emerge, creating a more meaningful counseling experience than in person.
Social Justice - I am able to provide help to marginalized populations -those who live in rural areas who don't have access to therapists who are the best fit for them.
Considerations:
Confidentiality - Online counseling requires a private, quiet space for you to video chat so that you won't be interrupted or distracted.
Adequate technology - A web cam and a microphone on your device are necessary for online therapy.
