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.

How much does online therapy cost?

At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.

Online Counseling and Virtual Therapy in San Bernardino, CA

Have you been going through a difficult time lately? Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or another mental disorder? Do you feel like you need to talk to someone about your issues but are afraid of being judged by your friends or family? You aren’t alone.

Many mental health issues are highly treatable under the guidance of a trained therapist, but some people never take the first step to give treatment a chance. Perhaps you know you could use professional help from a counselor or therapist but the idea of sitting face-to-face with a stranger in an office is daunting. Or maybe life just keeps getting in the way and you find it difficult to make the time for regular therapy sessions.

For these reasons and more, online therapy has become an increasingly popular alternative to traditional therapy in an office environment. All you need to do is open a video chat to speak with a licensed online therapist from the comfort of your home. You don’t have to hide your mental health struggles or wrestle with them yourself. Our team of online therapists is here to help at Thriveworks Counseling in San Bernardino, CA. Reach out today to schedule your first appointment.

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.
