Item descriptionIs online therapy effective?
Will I lose benefits of face to face therapy by choosing to do sessions telehealth? Research says, no! Counseling can be just as effective technologically. Studies
It is highly possible that clients can experience greater ease in therapy if participating in session from the comfort of their own homes. Sharing and sense of safety can be increased because the environment is familiar, there is no stress from traffic, or rushing back to relieve a babysitter, or taking time off of work.
Online therapy, however, is not appropriate for people in actively in crisis situations. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, you may call 911 or go to your closest emergency room. If you are not actively in crisis, the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is available: 1-800-273-8555.
