View Ricky Thompson's profile

What is your go-to approach for online therapy?

My go-to approach for helping people in online therapy is a combination of person-centered therapy and existential therapy. Both approaches encourage the client to grow and change.

What tools do you teach in online therapy?

I teach the following tools in online therapy: Journaling and taking an honest look at yourself, breathing techniques to address anxiety, and prioritizing personal time for self-care.

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

I know a client is making meaningful progress in online therapy when they are consistently demonstrating a decrease in the presenting symptoms and when they have met certain goals that we established at the beginning of our sessions.

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

Clients can supplement their time in online therapy with relaxation (using mindfulness), proper sleep, and some form of physical activity.

What should someone do to prepare for starting online therapy?

To prepare for your first online therapy session, you can try to not worry about what you are going to say and be honest with your therapist.

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.

How much does online therapy cost?

Our Thriveworks therapists at Thriveworks in Jacksonville, FL accept most major forms of insurance, which means that many of our clients only pay $0-$50 co-pay per session. However, there are also self-pay options that sit around $200 per session, depending on the service and location, for those who are out-of-network.

Need more help deciding?

Every single one of us fights battles that we’d rather not be a part of. We develop symptoms of a mental illness that we don’t understand or know how to manage; we lose a loved one, suddenly and unexpectedly; we grapple with guilt or regret about our past decisions; we struggle to find the happiness, the success, or the fulfillment we’re looking for, both personally and professionally.

I may not know what for I am here at this point, but maybe I will see the

better things after I pass this. Maybe the lessons can only be seen in retrospect.

Maybe I will appreciate the growth when I look back in time. Maybe, the best that

 I can do now is to give my all to carve my path, let go of the things I do not have

control over, and try to make the best out of my time and choices. So that

after this part of my journey, I could say, I turned out better.”

–Jerico Silvers

Their billing is horrible. I signed a payment agreement and they did not honour it. They charged my card for way more than the agreed amount making my account go negative. Cancelled all my appointment and wont be using this service again.

I’m 3 times better, because of the instructions and medication. I never was a medicine, trusting person. But after seeing my Psychiatrist, and him explaining the benefits, I trusted the process. And thank God I did.!

I’ve been dealing with a few stressers before reaching out for help in the psychology space. I reached out mainly because the pain being caused in my relationship. Sarah welcomed me into her network here with such professionalism I felt instantly comfortable with having open and candid conversation. Since then my life has gone through and still going through major changes some good and some bad. I would like Thriveworks and Sarah know that this couldn’t have been a better time for someone like Sarah to open her door for me and coach me through some of things I’ve been going thru and point me in the right direction of how to be the best version of a person I can be. You can tell she is passionate about her work and cares deeply for clients like myself. If there’s ever a time where someone I know needs to talk to someone I will recommend Thriveworks and specifically Sarah if it’s possible. Sarah, keep up the good work. You’re making a positive difference in my life.

I have been so well taken care of with Thriveworks! From the efficient sign-up process, to my outstanding therapist, Vanessa Cumber. Vanessa takes the time to really understand the big events in my life. She helps me reflect, review and challenge my own views about things, when I go to a negative place and get stuck there. Vanessa helps me get to the bottom of why I am so hard on myself. She is teaching me to become my own strongest advocate, instead of staying in my default, of harshest critic. Vanessa has the patience and fortitude of a Saint. I am truly blessed by her, and everyone at Thriveworks! You all are making the world a kinder place!
