Modern life can be full of challenges. We’re expected to juggle work, our family, our personal lives, and potentially the needs of our extended family members too. Add to this the never-ending news cycle, the social media landscape, and a variety of other day-to-day stressors and it’s no wonder that our mental and emotional well-being might eventually suffer as a result.

Given all that you have on your plate, how are you supposed to find time to prioritize your mental health? You might wonder: Is there even enough time in the day to squeeze in a therapy appointment, especially with a commute there and back? What if I don’t have reliable transportation, even if I wanted to schedule an in-person therapy session?

If you find yourself asking these questions, you’re not alone. Many people know that they need mental health support but aren’t sure if they really have the time or resources to make an office visit happen. That’s why online therapy services at Thriveworks are so popular — you simply pick up your phone or open a video chat at home and you’re immediately speaking with a licensed therapist or counselor. A 45-minute therapy appointment really does only have to take 45 minutes.

Plus, our mental health professionals are here to support you with therapy sessions that fit your schedule, seven days a week. If you feel like it’s time to put your mental health first, Thriveworks in Asheville, NC is here to help with unparalleled accessibility and convenience. Give us a call to schedule an appointment and start making some positive changes in your life.

What Types of Mental Health Services Are Offered Online?

If you’ve never tried it before, online therapy may seem like an unusual concept. But in reality, it’s very similar to traditional therapy — the one major difference is that you get to speak with your counselor or therapist remotely rather than in an office environment.

That’s why many clients find online counseling to be just as effective as traditional therapy. Here are some of the most common types of therapy we offer remotely:

  • Marriage and couples therapy
  • Premarital counseling
  • Depression and anxiety therapy
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Family therapy and child therapy
  • PTSD counseling
  • Trauma therapy
  • Anger management
  • Grief and loss counseling
  • Sexual assault therapy
  • Career counseling
  • Eating disorder counseling
  • Life coaching

If you are going through a major life transition or experiencing symptoms of a mental health issue, you don’t have to go it alone. Reach out to us at Thriveworks in Asheville, NC today to schedule a video chat or phone therapy appointment with a licensed mental health professional. Finding a therapist that fits your schedule and lifestyle has never been easier.

How Does Online Counseling Work?

The basis of an effective counseling relationship is an honest and open therapeutic relationship between a client and their counselor or therapist. As long as you are willing to be open about what you are feeling and committed to making adjustments, you’ll be well on your way to overcoming your issues and building a more fulfilling life.

For that reason, it is not important whether that dialogue happens face-to-face in an office, over a video conference, or via a phone call. What is critical, however, is that you feel comfortable speaking about your concerns and addressing your emotions with the guidance and support of your licensed professional.

Some people prefer engaging in that process in an office setting but others feel they are able to get that same level of connection over the phone or on video. Some actually feel more comfortable taking therapy calls remotely because they can do so from their home office, kitchen table, or even their bedroom.

Whether you choose phone calls or video sessions is really up to you. You may prefer the eye contact and nonverbal communication you get from video chats, or you may enjoy the comfort and mobility that comes with an audio-only phone conversation.

Whichever option you choose, you’ll have the opportunity to speak about your issues, learn new coping skills, and work together to reach your mental health goals. Our online therapists and counselors are able to treat clients the same way they would at a brick-and-mortar office. This level of flexibility is what makes working with Thriveworks in Asheville, NC so appealing. Reach out to schedule a mental health appointment on your terms.
