What is your go-to approach for online therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in online therapy is to maximize as many opportunities technology affords us to improve the therapeutic rapport which is especially important for online therapy. As a therapist trained to provide quality care online during COVID, I especially understand the power of connection when isolation is fraught.

What tools do you teach in online therapy?

While this list is by no means exhaustive, I do focus on teaching the following tools in individual therapy:

  • The ability to tell the difference between thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and beliefs
  • Improving mindfulness, the ability to “think about your thinking”
  • Tangible coping skills to use in moments of high-stress
And you may learn some handy troubleshooting/computer skills along the way!

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in online therapy?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in online therapy when the concerns that initially brought them in no longer have such a profound impact on their day-to-day life. This is not to say that certain events do not leave a lasting impact, but rather that the client has found a way to accommodate those experiences into how they want their life to look. Additionally, a client is making progress when they are able to work on other areas of their life that perhaps were inaccessible due to the intensity of the initial concern.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement online therapy?

In their personal time, clients can supplement online therapy by creating or participating in environments that promote the kind of wellness and healing they strive for. You are a reflection of the people and environments you surround yourself with!

What should someone do to prepare for starting online therapy?

To prepare for online therapy, all you need to do is schedule the appointment! The only extras you need to do are:

  • Ensure you are in a safe, private, confidential space (just like if we were in an office!)
  • Ensure a stable internet connection
  • Ensure you have access to Wi-Fi if your device does not have a data connection
  • Have your phone or another way to reach you available in the event that we cannot connect to the online platform

Starting Online therapy

What is online therapy?

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.

How does online therapy work?

Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.

What is the best option for online therapy?

There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.

Is online therapy just as effective?

Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.

How long does online therapy last?

Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.

How much does online therapy cost?

Our Thriveworks therapists at Thriveworks in Colorado Springs, CO accept most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session, depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.

Since day one Marie has been so nice and understanding of all my issues with anger. She has helped me so much to take a step back and analyze issues and approach them in a very calm manner and retrain my brain to deal with anxiety issues that lead to anger. She has helped a ton in putting forth effort to better my marriage and other relationships with family. I couldn’t thank her enough for all her help in the last couple of months and in the future! Love her!! Definitely recommend her!

I have known Cassandra for over 10 years and have seen her work hard for the clients she serves. She is caring and compassionate while also approaching her work with clients and colleagues realistically and honestly. They know she is trustworthy and means what she says, and that it comes from a good place. She genuinely wants the best for others.

Jennifer is one of the best and I'd recommend her to everyone without thinking twice. She's helped me though burnout, anxiety, grief (and so much more), while being one of the most compassionate and knowledgeable therapists I've interacted with.
