Ashley:
Online therapy works exactly like therapy in the office! We start with an assessment to figure out what your goals are and then we decide together where to go from there in terms of what we discuss and what strategies will be most helpful.

Ashley:
Just like therapy that takes place in an office setting, we can discuss tools related to any ailment you might be facing! DBT, CBT, and even EMDR can be conducted virtually!
Winter:
Mindfulness, CBT, and EMDR resources to help others gain an awareness of how they feeling/what they are thinking; to help change their perception and get a relief from what they are struggling with. They can learn self soothing tools to use on their own in between sessions.
Ashley:
I know clients are making meaningful progress in online therapy when they tell me! I reference back to the goals you told me you wanted to work towards during our first session and get your feedback on how you feel you've been doing in those areas from time to time. Sometimes I even have clients take questionnaires to help them gauge and monitor their symptoms.
Winter:
I see a light bulb come on; they gain an insight that they have never seen before.
Ashley:
Clients can get the most out of their therapy experience by engaging with recommendations discussed during session, which can range from researching topics we talk about, listening to/reading books or articles about things we discuss, practicing recommended coping skills, and of course doing your best to engage in healthy sleeping and eating habits.
Winter:
They can journal out thoughts/feelings, and use soothing techniques to help ease the emotion. Clients are also very resourceful and seek some resources on their own.
Ashley:
To prepare for your first online therapy session, you will want to make sure your internet connection is stable, that you are inside the state lines of where you live, and that you have a private place to have your session where no one else will be coming in and out of the room. Make sure you have a list of any medications and dosages you are taking, and come prepared to talk about what's troubling you, what your goals are, and do your best to be as open and honest as possible in regard to answering any background information asked of you.
Winter:
Learn the online format like zoom; make sure you have no distractions and come ready to heal.
With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
