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 Lawrenceville, GA 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.

Is Telephone Counseling or Video Counseling Right for Me?

Generally speaking, you can’t go wrong with telephone or video counseling. They are both viable online counseling options, of which have proven to help people fulfill their needs and accomplish their goals. That said, you might find that you prefer one over the other. This will depend on what your specific needs and/or goals are for therapy. For example, you might prefer telephone counseling over video counseling if you’d like to remain relatively anonymous. Or, on the other hand, if you enjoy that face-to-face interaction you get in video counseling, you might prefer this option over the former.

Now, if you have no idea which counseling option you’d like to pursue, that’s totally okay. You can give both a try at Thriveworks Lawrenceville, GA, or you can talk to our team more about which online counseling option might work best for you. In any case, here’s a little information about each option:

  1. Phone counseling: In phone counseling, you simply talk with your counselor over the phone instead of in person. Yes, it’s that simple. Your counselor will call you at the agreed upon day and time!
  2. Video counseling: In video counseling, you meet with your counselor in a secure video chat room instead of in person. Simple enough, right? When you schedule your session, you will be given a private video link to visit at the time of your session. Your counselor will see you there.

Having him as an unbiased, professional ear to listen to my situations has proven to be invaluable. So, many people in my life have tried to convince me to act in their interest and not my own.
