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.
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.

The psychiatrist Carl Jung once stated, “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.” Unfortunately, it’s difficult to become who you want to become without confronting your past. When you stop avoiding what happened to you and face yourself in a compassionate and supportive environment, incredible things can happen. Sometimes the first step toward the mirror can be the hardest one. That’s where Thriveworks can help.
