We’ve learned that we can do all sorts of things remotely…
… including work, holidays, school, social meetings, entertainment, and, yes… therapy!
We’re always looking for connection with other humans. So, meeting in person is the natural way to do things. But, like it or not, we have become a society living through our electronic devices.
Technology can make that connection feel different, but the good news is that it doesn’t have to be a strange experience.
Many people actually prefer online therapy.
After all, there are a lot of benefits!
First, in the case of inclement weather, you don’t have to worry about going out… or the hassle of parking.
Oh, and you don’t have to worry about running into someone you know going in and out of a therapy office!
Finally, you can meet from the comfort of your favorite spot: your couch, bed, chair… or with a favorite pet.
Don’t underestimate the importance of this last point!
Therapy is facilitated when you feel comfortable and at ease in your environment, whether you are in your office, home, or on a trip.
No matter where you are, it’s easy to join the session and participate. Just make sure you’re in a quiet environment without distractions.
Like traditional face-to-face therapy, online therapy is confidential.
We’ll use a secure platform, so your private information will stay secure in an online world.
You can choose between using Apple FaceTime, ZOOM, or SimplePractice video conferencing software.
If you would like to know more about the safety and security of these platforms, you can search for how they work with telehealth and HIPAA compliance.
Are you ready to try it?
Grab your favorite blanket, curl up, and connect.
Come online, and let’s laugh, cry, and learn!
