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 , IN 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.

Need more help deciding?

Have you ever played on a team? Have you ever asked a friend or family member for advice? Have you ever gone to the doctor for an injury or illness? We know that you answered yes to at least one (probably two) of these questions. This means that you’ve sought help and/or been guided by a professional at some point in your life. And you likely benefited as a result—whether you went on to improve your soccer or basketball skills; you worked through a problem thanks to your loved one’s help; or you received a diagnosis and treatment from your doctor.

Our point is this: A mental health professional can provide you with help, guidance, support, and treatment, too. Only they focus on assisting their clients with the betterment of their mental and emotional health. You don’t feel ashamed of playing a sport, talking to your loved ones, or going to the doctor when you don’t feel well, right? You shouldn’t feel ashamed of seeing a counselor, therapist, or psychologist either.

In other words, you get to attend all of your sessions by phone and/or video. Many people prefer online counseling to in-person counseling, as it offers optimal convenience as well as flexibility and comfort. If this sounds like something you’re interested in, contact Thriveworks Indiana about online counseling today. We can talk to you further about our services or get you scheduled.

What Can Online Counseling Help Me With?

Think of the many reasons that one might see their general physician or make a pitstop at an urgent care: they feel sick; they think they’ve broken a bone; they’re bleeding excessively; they want to talk about or change their meds; they think they might have an eye infection. The reasons are aplenty. The same is true for why one might see a counselor or another mental health professional. Some common reasons include:

  • Symptoms of a mental illness, such as depression or anxiety
  • Trouble managing stress or coping with tough emotions
  • Difficulty working through a relationship issue in one’s marriage
  • Failure to communicate effectively with loved ones
  • Lack of happiness, success, or fulfillment in one’s life

A counselors, therapist, psychologist, or life coach can help you in any of the above scenarios. They can help you with other problems or concerns, too. And remember, there is no shame to be had in working with a counselor.

Here at Thriveworks Indiana Counseling, our counselors provide their clients with a nonjudgmental and supportive space for opening up about their unique challenges. These mental health providers can help you manage stress, cope with tough feelings, repair relationships, recover from mental illness, and so much more.

Online Counseling Perks: What Are the Benefits to this Virtual Relationship?

Both in-person and online counseling are effective approaches to mental health care. However, online counseling does offer several benefits that in-person counseling doesn’t. For example:

  • Optimal convenience: As we mentioned earlier, online counseling is super convenient. We probably don’t need to explain why, but the gist is this: you can attend your session from anywhere.
  • Greater flexibility: Additionally, online counseling comes with greater flexibility. Often, there are more appointment days and times to choose from, including sessions in the evenings and on the weekends.
  • More reliability: Also, online counseling often brings with it more reliability. You don’t have to worry about the possibility of getting held up in traffic, getting caught in a storm, or missing your appointment due to other external factors.

When it comes to online counseling, all you need is a device and internet connection to attend your phone counseling or video counseling session. Otherwise, you’re all set. Come prepared to begin the rest of your life! We look forward to it.

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
