Maybe we’re getting too reliant on devices and the web. But it’s hard not to when it has so many excellent apps and opportunities available. From courses accessible exclusively online, to reaching out on Skype to your cousin who lives on the other side of the world. The web has made what, many years ago, seemed impossible, possible!
Therapy has joined the band of positives that enable you when you’re feeling low to achieve a better, healthier mind and life. To delve more into the benefits of online therapy and how it could work for you, read on.
Google does its part in providing a comprehensive list of ‘therapists near me.’ But having to click on individual websites to check out each therapist, and see what they’re like and whether they’re available when you are, is an arduous task.
However, businesses such as Lifestance make finding a therapist simple, and you’re not limited to a five-mile radius either. You can find an online psychologist on the other side of America if you want to! With lists of therapists, a picture, the profile of their educational background, and their therapy style; finding a therapist that will suit you is much easier to do on sites like Lifestance.
Intentionally living remotely, away from all civilian life, apart from your own family – sounds fantastic. But it can have its drawbacks. Especially if transport options are limited and you need therapy. As a solution, providing you have an internet connection and a device, which we’re assuming you do because you’re reading this, you can make an appointment with a therapist online. Who needs transport anyway!
You and everyone else is busy doing something or other. Whether working, childminding, decorating, cleaning, shopping, and so on. Meaning, finding time to receive therapy is challenging.
However, by opting for therapy online, you can cast your net for potential therapists further than your local vicinity. With more choice, there’s bound to be a therapist available for the time you have in mind. And in some cases, therapists online are more flexible with their working hours to accommodate people such as yourself, who lead hectic lives.
Therapy as treatment can be administered to people in a variety of ways. In-person, over the phone, email, and via video chat. In particular, video chats are advantageous for the therapist to build rapport and gauge your reaction to questions and pick up how you feel about a specific situation. In doing so, they can adjust the treatment plan accordingly to suit your needs better.
Online therapy is useful; however, participants must be willing to work on their mental health as with any therapy session.
In answer to the title of this post, yes! Therapy online can work for you. Particularly if you either live remotely, you’re exceptionally busy, and you’re in need of effective treatment at a time that suits you.
