What is your go-to approach for online therapy?

Research shows that online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy for various mental health conditions. My go-to approach for helping people in online therapy is to establish a therapeutic alliance by exploring the history of the client's presenting problem. A treatment plan with be created with input from the client. The clinician will review the online process with the client regarding commitment to sessions.

What tools do you teach in online therapy?

The clinician will educate, encourage, and support the client and provide consistent opportunities to reach treatment goals utilizing ACT, solution-focused therapy, and DBT or motivational interviewing modalities. The clinician will reinforce positive, reality-based cognitive messages that enhance the client's self-confidence and increase adaptive action.

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

The client will be engaged in sessions as evidenced by fully participating in the discussion. Established and agreed-upon treatment goals will be evaluated and progress will be acknowledged. The client will report and the therapist will observe the client's stable mood, personal growth, and the treatment goals completed or in process.

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

Clients can complete homework assignments and be prepared to discuss them in the next session.

What should someone do to prepare for starting online therapy?

To prepare for your first online therapy session, please consider 2 or 3 goals for treatment that you believe will make a significant difference when achieved.

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.
