What is your go-to approach for online therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in online therapy is to make them feel as comfortable as possible in an online setting by being welcoming and letting them know that they are going to be okay.

What tools do you teach in online therapy?

I teach the following tools in online therapy

  • Communication skills
  • Managing uncomfortable feelings

  • How to work through traumatic events

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 they are able to decrease their sessions from weekly to bi-weekly to monthly check-ins. I also know when a client is making meaningful progress in online therapy based on symptom reduction.

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

Clients can supplement their time in online therapy by completing homework assignments and practicing the skills they learned in therapy.

What should someone do to prepare for starting online therapy?

To prepare for your first online therapy session, make sure that you test your internet connection; you are in a distraction-free area and a place where you feel comfortable talking about why you are in therapy; grab yourself a cup of coffee, tea, soft drink or water and maybe a snack or two; and most importantly, be yourself!

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 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.
