Ditch the Commute, Find Your Comfort
Why online counseling might be your ideal match
Traditional therapy is great, but sometimes you may want or need a more convenient, flexible option. That's why I offer both in-person and online therapy. While my physical location is in Columbus, Ohio (OH); I love that I can see clients all over the state as well as clients from all over California (CA).
But is it right for you?
Pros of online counseling:
- Convenience: No more battling traffic or fitting appointments into your busy schedule.
- Accessibility: Sometimes it can be hard to find the right therapist who meets your unique needs - online counseling helps make that easier.
- Comfort: Feel at ease in your own familiar space, which can be especially helpful when you're working through complex trauma, depression or anxiety.
- Privacy: I use a HIPPA-compliant secure online platform.
- Save time and money: You don't have to waste time on a commute, and you can save on travel costs.
Cons of online counseling:
- Technology dependence: Reliable internet and a quiet, private space are essential.
- Missing nonverbal cues: There's something special about sharing space with another human. When I only see the upper half of you, I might miss body language that could be important to our work together.
- Potential technical difficulties: While rare, internet glitches or device issues can disrupt sessions.
Ultimately, the choice between online and in-person counseling comes down to your individual needs and preferences. If you think online therapy may be the right fit for you, let's talk.
