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.

Receiving these services can often be life-changing, which is why we offer them online. Online therapy provides benefits such as:
- Increased accessibility: Online mental health services make therapy and counseling more accessible to a wider range of people. You can meet with online therapists and counselors without having a counseling center near your house — this lets people access professional counseling and therapy no matter where they live.
- Increased reliability: Since you don’t have to drive to an office, you can meet with your counselor or therapist from nearly anywhere. That means bad weather, traffic, or a work trip won’t force you to cancel a session that you want to attend.
- Added comfort: For some people, the idea of going to a strange place to talk about their thoughts and feelings is scary. Connecting with your counselor through video chats or phone calls means that your sessions can be held where you’re most comfortable, whether that be on your bed, at the dining room table, or even in your car.
Studies show that online therapy and counseling can be just as effective as traditional therapy, so you won’t be trading convenience for effectiveness when working with an online provider from Thriveworks Counseling in Grand Prairie, TX.
