Why online or virtual therapy?

Virtual versus in person therapy is a personal choice. Much of the hesitancy to try virtual therapy comes from feeling you may not get the same benefits when you don't see someone face to face. While meeting in person has benefits like no dependance on technology and your counselor being able to better observe your nonverbal cues, virtual counseling is just as effective at helping you work through whatever challenges you face. Virtual therapy sessions are:

• Just as effective as in person

• A great option if you're in a remote area or out of town

• Accessible if getting out of the house is difficult

• Great for parents that would otherwise need childcare

• More flexible with appointment times

• Covered by most insurance plans

• Private and in the comfort of your own space

• Convenient

What can I expect?

After scheduling your appointment, we'll send a confirmation email and text with some instructions, including how you'll receive your virtual session link.

Before your first appointment, you'll be asked to fill out a few forms and add a payment method to your TherapyAppointment profile. When you log on for your session, your counselor will walk you through how virtual sessions work. You can expect some time spent discussing your forms as well as what to expect from our practice. We'll walk you through how we operate and get to know more about you and what you're goals are for participating in counseling.

At the end of your appointment, you and your counselor will discuss frequency of your sessions and schedule out the next or next few appointments. If you leave your first appointment with any additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact us!
