What is your go-to approach for online therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in online therapy is to ensure them that they will receive the same care and compassion they would during an in-person session.

What tools do you teach in online therapy?

They receive the same tools in online therapy they would receive in-person therapy: coping skills, communication skills, and learning to identify their triggers to negative events.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in online therapy?

Clients should be able to recognize and be able to verbalize their ability to respond to negative events without becoming aggressive or withdrawn.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement online therapy?

Clients can watch podcasts, journal, or read self-help books about their identified problems.

What should someone do to prepare for starting online therapy?

Clients can ensure they are able to focus during the session and without distractions. They can also make sure their WiFi and all other technology is working and stable.

Starting Online therapy

What is online therapy?

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.

How does online therapy work?

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.

What is the best option for online therapy?

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.

Is online therapy just as effective?

Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.

How long does online therapy last?

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.

So lucky to live at a time when therapy is more acceptable and encouraged rather than back in the day. I wish I would’ve reached out sooner. After a traumatic event, my life was spinning out of control. I now feel like I’m more equipped to manage the issues that arise.
