The Buddha once stated, “All that we are is the result of what we have thought.” Our beliefs, expectations, and feelings all contribute to the choices we make in life. But what if we find ourselves anxious or unhappy? Maybe there’s no external, obvious reason for our distress. So how can our thoughts influence our reality? 

A great therapist can help someone develop insights into their psyche and behavior. By listening and observing closely, a therapist can guide someone on their journey of self-discovery. Maybe someone’s depression is worsened by underlying negative beliefs. Maybe someone’s anxiety flares up when they think they have control over things that are uncontrollable. People make decisions all the time based on their subconscious belief systems and biases. By penetrating those psychological mysteries, licensed therapists can help clients achieve their goals. 

The online counselors at Thriveworks in Rio Rancho, NM use the same evidence-based talk therapy approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) that work so well in traditional, in-person therapy sessions. Virtual mental health services can take place over phone or video sessions at the client’s convenience. Online counseling is an effective and affordable way to obtain the redirection and clarity that our lives sometimes require. 

What Is the Procedure in Online Counseling?

In online counseling at Thriveworks in Rio Rancho, NM, clients book a session by calling the Thriveworks office or scheduling their appointment online. Though clients can choose in-person counseling sessions as well, many clients opt for online mental health services for the following reasons:

  • Online counseling tends to offer more scheduling flexibility, offering sessions on evenings and weekends.
  • Clients may not need to hire babysitters or take time off work to attend virtual sessions, making therapy more affordable.
  • Clients can do online sessions while they’re traveling for work or pleasure. 
  • Clients can work on their relationship issues through online group therapy without requiring all parties to be in the same place at the same time.  
  • Clients may feel safer discussing intimate subjects in familiar surroundings.
  • Clients have more options for specialized providers. 
  • Clients don’t need to worry about spreading germs or viruses.
  • Online counseling enables people who live in rural areas to access exceptional psychological services. 
  • Clients with mobility issues can still attend sessions. 
  • Online sessions can ensure greater privacy and anonymity. 

The licensed mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Rio Rancho, NM use a HIPAA-compliant, secure online therapy platform to connect with their clients. The software is easy to download and use. If you can click on a link in an email, you can probably do online therapy! But if you have any technical issues, the Thriveworks team can help you troubleshoot.

Is Online Psychiatry Effective?

Numerous studies have shown that online psychiatry sessions are just as effective as in-person psychiatry sessions. The licensed psychiatrists at Thriveworks in Rio Rancho, NM can help diagnose, treat, and prevent mental health conditions like the following:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
  • Specific phobias
  • Bipolar disorder (manic depression)
  • Eating disorders
  • Personality disorders

Psychiatrists sometimes use medication to manage psychological or behavioral symptoms. They also use talk therapy solutions such as CBT. Thriveworks clients can schedule follow-up appointments with their psychiatrist to make sure any new prescription medications are working well without adverse side effects. 

Does Insurance Cover Online Counseling?
