Are you considering online counseling? Are you wondering if online counseling works? Online counseling offers many options to you. Have you considered the benefits of online counseling?
Convenience- Online therapy takes less time away from your day. Be it a commute from work or home, you no longer have to schedule in drive time or traffic.
Comfortable- You have the advantage of picking your setting! Whether you are on your couch or in your car, you are already comfortable with your environment as opposed to sitting in a waiting room and then adjusting to a counselor’s office. You may also find with online counseling that you open up easier and feel more confident and comfortable sharing what you are experiencing in your world.
Advantage of technology- Today we use technology in so many ways from work to family to social media. Why not take advantage of technology with online counseling?
Increased Privacy- Counseling is always confidential, however with online counseling, it’s even more confidential. You do not have to worry about who you may encounter in the lobby, or explaining why you will be gone for two hours (drive time included).
Expands your world- If you live in a small town or rural area, in person counseling may be limited. With online therapy, you can see a counselor in any town and have the convenience, as well as, the privacy of online counseling.
But does it really work? I’ll admit, I was sceptical at first. However, COVID forced me to offer it to my clients. My personal experience with online counseling has been awesome. So much better than I anticipated. I see clients open up sooner and truly experience therapeutic benefits from online counseling. While COVID has been negative in so many ways, I look for the positive that can be found and online counseling is one of the great ones.
