Online Therapy
How does online therapy work?
How private is online therapy?
Is online therapy right for me?
You may be wondering how online therapy works and if it is effective. The answer is yes. Oniline therapy is identical to what you would receive going to my office. The ways we work together does not change. The advantage of online therapy is it allows you the comfort and security of being in your home for sessions. This is especially helpful during this time of sheltering and social distancing. If you experience overwhelming anxiety, it could be helpful to have a companion pet with you for comfort during our sessions.
You may have concerns about privacy. I use secure video a HIPAA compliant telehealth platform designed for therapists. You are worth creating the time and space in your home for an online therapy session. I can help you find a safe and secure place for a private session whether it is a space in your home or if you prefer simply sitting in your car. You deserve to feel supported by a professional therapist trained to help people. You can learn proven ways to feel calmer in this time of uncertainty and stress.
You may be questioning if online therapy is right for you. If you have underlying anxiety or stress in your life or in your relationships, you may be feeling worse right now. If you have experienced childhood trauma or other forms of anxiety or depression. You may find yourself feeling more on edge or keyed up or simply tired and depressed. We are meant to be social creatures and the social distancing along with sheltering is difficult for everyone. You may be experiencing more conflict and disconnection at this time If your relationships are not strong. I can help.
You deserve to feel good. I can help you cope with the uncertainty and loss of what you once knew as your normal. Please reach out if you would like to talk with me about working together. I offer a free 15 minute phone session to answer your questions and help you see if working together seems like a good fit.
