At its most basic, a mental health counseling session functions the same in person or remotely: A therapist provides a safe, confidential space for a client to share their most vulnerable thoughts, anxieties, worries, or fears.
Teletherapy has bridged the gap in accessibility to professional mental health care. It’s easier to connect with a therapist to help guide through difficult times with the flexibility of doing therapy virtually.
To make the most of your telehealth session, you’ll need a private space and a computer or smartphone that lets you connect to a secure portal where your therapist can provide you with a virtual meeting room. Privacy is relative; it may be behind a closed door or inside your car on a lunch break. You can also book telehealth visits exclusively or use them to supplement in-person visits with your therapist.
With busy schedules it’s difficult to imagine committing to another appointment. Online therapy sessions are easy to set up and work with your schedule. It’s understandable to feel anxious about meeting your therapist for the first time virtually. If you want to see if teletherapy is the right fit for you, many Lifeologie Counseling offices can help you set up a free 15-minute online consultation with one of our expert virtual therapists. During the consultation, they can answer any of your concerns, while also giving you an opportunity to see what virtual therapy feels like.
