What is your go-to approach for online therapy?

Often in therapy, I encourage clients to think and act in ways that will help support a change in how they feel. I encourage my clients to “experiment” with new ways of acting and thinking to find health and happiness.

What tools do you teach in online therapy?

I teach a variety of tools in therapy. Often we focus on:

  • Emotional self-regulation
  • Communication skills
  • Setting boundaries
  • Fair fighting rules
  • Helpful self-talk

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

I often know a client is making progress not when they are happy, but they are calmer in their struggles with life and feeling the courage to try new things. Also, I usually see progress when a client puts their own needs first.

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

A great deal of therapy does not happen in session. Therapy happens when the client tries new “experiments” on how to deal with the real world. The client’s time with me is often a planning session for these new efforts.

What should someone do to prepare for starting online therapy?

To prepare for your first online session, make sure you have a very good connection and can meet in privacy. Too many online sessions are interrupted by in-laws and “lag.” We want you to get the most out of therapy, so allow yourself the space and time to do the work. Therapy always starts with a discussion of where the client has been. Clients are often eager to tell about the troubles they have had in life, but clients should be prepared to discuss where they want to go and what they want to achieve.

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.

Thriveworks offers it all. It’s very easy to change therapist until you find one you like. Only thing I’d like to see change is the price for missed appointments. It keeps people accountable but over $100 is a bit harsh.

THRIVE ALIVE is working on a project and it’s “ME” and she also has my “FFL” as a patient too. Let’s just say she is a little Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey wrapped in to one! I’m not telling you her name because I don’t want her to get booked and deprive me of my scheduled appointments. I’m just saying this woman is a “MIRACLE WORKER!” I got this CM!

After working with Zack for a year I would say that he is very dependable and does show concern for his patients. There is never any problem with following hospital policy. Always a good man to have on your team.

I’ve known Zack, both professionally and personally, for the last 3 and a half years. He is a great person, and you won’t find anyone more dedicated to what they do. He truly cares about his patients and their outcomes, and he puts 110% of himself into his work to make sure they have the best outcomes possible. I consider myself lucky to have gotten the opportunity to work with him, and I know he will do great things now with Thriveworks.
