Is Online Therapy just like In-person Therapy?

Yes and No. Online therapy offers several benefits, including convenience, flexibility, and accessibility. You can attend sessions from anywhere, which is especially helpful if you have a busy schedule, live in a remote area, or prefer the comfort of your own home. It also removes the need for travel time, making it easier to fit therapy into your routine. Many people find that online therapy offers the same depth of connection with their therapist as in-person sessions, with the added bonus of being more adaptable to their needs.

What happens in our therapy session?

During a therapy session, you'll meet in a safe and confidential environment. Our session typically lasts about 55 minutes. You’ll talk about your feelings, challenges, and any issues you want to address. I will listen, ask questions, and provide insights or techniques to help you process your emotions and develop coping strategies. Therapy is collaborative, meaning we’ll work together to set goals and find solutions that work for you.

How long does therapy take?

The length of our time together varies from person to person, depending on the nature of the issues you're addressing and your individual goals. Some folks feel much improved after just a few months, while others prefer we embark on longer-term therapy, to process deeper and more complex concerns.

Think of therapy like a season. I recommend starting with weekly or biweekly sessions and committing to yourself for 3 months of focused energy. I will regularly check in with you to evaluate progress and adjust our approach as needed. Ultimately, therapy is a personalized journey, so there’s no set timeline.
