No Time to Take Care of You
When struggling, it is sometimes hard to take appropriate action.
And when you have an over-committed schedule (and who doesn’t nowadays?), it is hard to find time to seek help.
Talking to someone trained to help is one more appointment, one more trip across town, and one more thing to fit into your already jam-packed day.
If finding time for in-person therapy is too hard, maybe you should consider an alternative – teletherapy.
Simple and Convenient
Teletherapy eliminates things that make an appointment a challenge.
All you need is a computer or phone and reliable Internet. At the scheduled time, you log into your client account and join your session. It is that easy.
There is no need to think about traffic, parking, weather, or anything else.
The focus is on you.
You can be in therapy in the comfort of your own home or squeeze in a session between meetings at work.
I’m Now a Believer
When the pandemic hit us and we had to go home, I started providing teletherapy because it was the only option. I now know that it is a great option.
I had never used teletherapy and never planned to until that was the only option.
Over a weekend, I figured out the technical applications and moved forward, wondering if I could still help my clients over video.
Teletherapy worked well and continues to work well for clients working with me at the start of the pandemic and clients who started with me during the pandemic. Josh is a good example.
Worried – About Everything
Josh reached out a couple of months into the pandemic and started therapy online (having never met me in person!). Living a high-achieving and high-stress life, Josh managed by taking good care of himself, exercising, eating well, and getting enough sleep.
Before the pandemic, changes in Josh’s work made it harder for him to put things down at the end of the day and enjoy the rest of his life.
Suddenly, Josh was constantly worried – about his productivity or the quality of that last project. His old ways of managing didn’t help, and it was eating him up!
Working from home, isolated, only made Josh think more. He told me his brain was driving him crazy, and he couldn’t stop it.
Almost a year later, Josh is doing great. In therapy, he learned ways to address his anxiety and his thinking.
Josh looked at and identified how his ideas around productivity, achievement, self-worth were not always helping him. He explored past life events and recognized that some were still painful to him and now affect his life.
Proven Results
Teletherapy is a proven form of therapy that works as well as in-person therapy. Studies show teletherapy is as effective as face-to-face counseling, and client and therapist connect as strongly as in person.
Even before the pandemic, online counseling was a widely used and researched form of therapy.
Teletherapy is safe, secure, and private.
I use secure, HIPAA-compliant communications designed for teletherapy. That means your information is kept private, confidential.
Make Time to Meet Your Needs
Josh benefited from therapy during a pandemic without leaving his home to meet with someone in an office.
Be like Josh and seek the help you need to address your struggles.
You can have a similar experience. If in-person therapy is not an option, teletherapy is a viable option, even after a pandemic.
I hope to see you online.
