Starting Online therapy in Waltham

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.

Need more help deciding?

If you are interested in meeting with a therapist, counselor, or psychologist, but you just haven’t found a way to work it into your schedule, consider the option of online therapy. Online therapy makes every aspect of the counseling process more convenient. You can work with your provider from anywhere you choose, as long as you have reliable access to a phone or computer!

There isn’t anybody out there who doesn’t have a mental health issue,

whether it’s depression, anxiety, or how to cope with relationship problems.

Having OCD is not an embarrassment anymore, for me. Just know that there

is help and your life could be better if you go out and seek the help.”

–Howie Mandel

 

Thriveworks Waltham, MA offers online therapy counseling, and we can get you scheduled as soon as today or tomorrow. Our team of online therapists is eager to help you, and they think that online counseling could be the convenient option you’re looking for. If you’re ready to see what online counseling is all about, call us today at (781) 309-9149 to schedule your appointment.

What Is Online Therapy?

Online therapy is an alternative to in-person counseling, in that it allows you to meet with your therapist online. This is convenient for people of all backgrounds, including those who can’t make it into the office during normal hours, those who’d prefer to remain anonymous, and those who have an illness or disability that makes attending an in-person appointment difficult.

There are multiple online therapy options, including phone counseling, videoconferencing, and email/text message therapy. You might choose one of the former two options if you want to work with your Thriveworks Waltham, MA therapist for a specific amount of time on a consistent basis. On the other hand, you might choose to work with your therapist via email/text message if you’d rather engage in a more casual therapeutic relationship; email/text message therapy involves messaging back and forth with your therapist on a more flexible basis.

Who Can Benefit from Online Counseling? Is It Right for Me?

Online therapy might be right for you if you’re looking for a more comfortable and convenient alternative to in-person counseling. It might also benefit you if you’re hoping to remain anonymous in working with your therapist or counselor. Furthermore, you might find online therapy beneficial if you’re looking for greater flexibility in scheduling your therapy appointments. Here are a few examples of who might best benefit from online counseling:

  1. Jonathan feels stuck at work and he’s seriously considering quitting his job right now. He knows that he should talk to a professional who can offer informed guidance and an unbiased opinion—but he can’t make it in for an appointment during the work day and his local office doesn’t offer appointments outside of his work schedule.
  2. Sandra and Noah haven’t stopped bickering in weeks. They’re both wondering if this relationship is right for them and want to work with a couples therapist to give it their best shot, but they haven’t been able to find a time that works for both of their schedules.
  3. Ash has been experiencing symptoms of depression for months now, but she’s been too nervous to see a counselor. She worries that someone will see her or that she’ll be judged by her therapist. If only she could remain anonymous.

In each case, online therapy offers a solution to the problem at hand. It would allow Jonathan to find a time to work with his therapist outside of working hours; it would enable Sandra and Noah to meet with a counselor when it works for all parties; and it would allow Ash to work with a therapist whilst keeping her identity mostly private. If you think that online therapy offers a solution to your problem, reach out to Thriveworks Waltham, MA today.

Schedule Online Therapy at Thriveworks Waltham, MA

If you’re in search of mental health services in Waltham, MA, consider working with an online counselor at Thriveworks Waltham. This is a convenient therapy option that could help you make important progress with your therapist from the comfort of your own home.

To schedule your online counseling appointment, just give us a call at (781) 309-9149. We’ll be here.
