I love the format of telehealth in the evening. At a time where it's so challenging to find Psychiatrists, Thriveworks has been so easy to work with. And Ericka is lovely; easy to work with, easy to talk to, trustworthy, and very helpful.

Gina is an incredibly skilled and talented clinician. She has the unique gift of making clients immediately feel safe and understood even upon first meeting. Her passion for the work is palpable. Her knowledge is vast and her approach is sensitive, gentle, supportive and compassionate, yet direct. Gina helped me navigate a tremendously challenging time in my life and afforded me the confidence to pursue personal goals that had initially felt unattainable. She taught me tangible skills to navigate anxiety and feelings of overwhelm during our work together and our sessions were always insightful and productive. Gina will lead you on a path to self discovery without all of the therapy lingo and jargon and will always help you to feel as though you’re the expert on your own life- because you are. I couldn’t recommend Gina more. A true diamond in the rough!

Emily’s warmth and compassion resonates with me and her attentive approach has enhanced my experience. The work of healing is crucial and it starts with a therapist that is relatable, sincere and authentic. This can easily assist in removing the stigma of “mental health” and steer the narrative towards emotional balance & wellness. She challenges me to approach my healing with identifying the root of my triggers while being open and honest with all the facts. Most importantly, it’s my work to understand how the facts and old narratives has shaped my life and she provides me with updated tools & expertise to tackle my PTSD. Emily’s skillful approach is helping me to forge ahead and truly heal in the most pragmatic and authentic way.

Overall, my experience with Thriveworks has been fantastic. My wife and both sought counseling after having some tough times, and Thriveworks quickly connected us with therapists that have had a positive impact on our lives. The continuing support has been invaluable. Getting insurance and payment info processed is also smooth and efficient. I would definitely recommend the service to anyone looking for help.

I’ve been in and out of therapy most of my life. I’ve worked with many different providers in people and doctors, and I have to say that I have found my match. Finally, after all these years, wonderful can’t say enough good things will continue to use the service for many years to come, or at least until I figure out all my own stuff.

Experience effective therapy with a counselor or therapist in

Imagine: You had a hard day at the office. But this wasn’t the first day. This was your 30th hard day at the office in a row. Work is picking up and your list of to-dos is longer than it’s ever been. Because of how much stress you’ve had at work, your marriage is starting to suffer because of it. Your partner doesn’t think you spend enough time with them, and you barely get home in time for dinner each night. You want to be able to better manage your stress and improve your marriage, but you don’t know where to start nor do you have the time to figure it out. Fortunately, online counseling can help and is readily available at Thriveworks.

At Thriveworks, we have flexible online counseling services that can help you better manage your stress, improve your marriage, learn coping mechanisms for the future, and more. It might sound too good to be true, but it isn’t.

We offer convenient online counseling appointments, 7 days a week. Our counselors and coaches are professionals at helping people manage their mental health challenges, no matter how big or small. Whether you’re going through something similar to the situation above, you’re struggling with a mental illness, or you just need a little extra guidance in life, we can help you. To get started, just give us a call or schedule online. 

What Areas of Life Can Online Counseling Help With? 

Like we just briefly mentioned, online counseling is a service that is designed to help you through whatever problem or obstacle you are facing in life. Here are a few of the areas in which a Thriveworks counselor can help you with:

  • Relationship problems such as infidelity, lack of trust, or intimacy issues
  • Family turmoil
  • Mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression
  • Behavioral problems in children
  • Grief and loss
  • Trauma
  • Stress and anger management
  • Addiction and substance abuse
  • Financial stress or strain
  • Parenting concerns

What are the Benefits of Online Counseling?

As the name implies, online counseling allows clients to speak to their mental health provider online. At Thriveworks Counseling in Connecticut, our clients can choose between two convenient options: phone counseling and video counseling. Both options have been proven to be effective, so you won’t have to worry about receiving less effective care in choosing teletherapy. There are a range of great benefits to this type of therapy, including:

  1. Comfort – Talk to your counselor from wherever feels most comfortable to you.
  2. Convenience – If you have a busy schedule and can barely find time in the day to take a 5-minute break, online counseling could be a great option for you.
  3. Reliability – Not only is this option of online therapy convenient, it’s also reliable. You don’t have to worry about outside factors like traffic or a meeting running behind.

Why Should I Choose Thriveworks for Online Counseling?

If you have been searching for a trusted, compassionate counselor with no luck, your search is over. At Thriveworks Counseling in Connecticut, our counselors are readily available and dedicate themselves to helping their clients live happier, fuller lives. Our mental health professionals have the skills and experience that allow them to help their clients in a variety of areas, like we detailed above. Thriveworks also offers weekend and evening appointments and on-the-spot assistance from a scheduling specialist.

If you are interested in any of these benefits and live in Connecticut, reach out to us today. We’d love to get you set up with an online counselor as soon as possible.
