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 speicifc needs and with wom 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?

Our Thriveworks therapists at Thriveworks in Shreveport, LA accept most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session, depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.

Why Try Therapy or Counseling Online?

Online therapy or counseling lets you access mental health care from the comfort of your own home. Many of our clients thrive using this style of therapy as it helps them be more comfortable and at ease than they would in a traditional therapy environment.

Clients love online therapy for many reasons, including:

  • Easy scheduling: Finding a time for mental health care is easier when you don’t have to plan for a commute to a provider’s office.
  • It’s comfortable: You might be nervous about the idea of in-person therapy or counseling. Working with a mental health professional online lets you choose where each session will take place. Feeling comfortable in your own space can help you be more open with your provider so you can make progress during each session.
  • Treatment choices: You can choose between working with a provider through phone calls or video sessions. Phone counseling can be a great option for removing distractions or if you’re nervous about speaking with a therapist or counselor. Video chats are great for people who need face-to-face interaction, or who are already comfortable with the idea of seeing a mental health professional.
  • It’s simple: Online sessions are incredibly simple. If you’re working with your provider over a video chat, you’ll receive a link before your session is set to start. Just click the link to enter the call. If you’re talking with a therapist or counselor over the phone, you’ll receive a phone call when your appointment is set to start.

Working with a professional can provide relief for your mental health. They’ll help you manage any symptoms you’re experiencing and find a healthier path forward.

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.
