What Are the Benefits of Online Therapy?
Online counseling lets you access mental health care from the comfort of your own home. Many of our clients love this type of counseling as it helps them feel more comfortable and at ease.
There are a lot of benefits to online therapy appointments, including:
- Hassle-free scheduling: Finding time for a session is easier when you don’t have to worry about driving to a provider’s office.
- Increased comfort: You might be nervous about the idea of in-person therapy or counseling. Online counseling lets you choose where every session takes place — you can work with a therapist in your bedroom, office, or wherever you’re most comfortable. Feeling comfortable may help you open up to your provider more easily and make progress more quickly.
- Treatment options: You’ll have a choice between talking to your provider over the phone or through a video chat. For some, phone calls can calm their nerves because they don’t have to worry about how they look on camera. For others, video chats can simulate a face-to-face interaction and help make a connection with their provider more quickly. You can choose whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
- Simplicity: Getting started with online therapy is very simple. If you decide to work with a provider over the phone, you’ll receive a call when your session is scheduled to begin. If you want to work with a therapist or counselor over a video chat, you’ll get a link before your session begins. Just click the link to join the session at the appointed time.
Working with a licensed mental health professional remotely can help you make valuable mental health progress without having to step foot outside your home. It’s a convenient option that helps many people achieve their goals and thrive.
