You might be wondering if online therapy is something you might be interested in...

Here are some common things to consider:


What are some of the concerns about doing online therapy? 

• Connection - some people express concern that connection on a video platform would be different than the experience of meeting in-person. 
  
  • As a therapist, we are trained to pick up on minute details in body language and facial expression. While in person is ideal, being able to see someone's whole face and to hear their tone of voice is just as effective.
• EMDR - For those considering EMDR, we have found a secure and successful platform, after much exploration and research. 
• Privacy - the platform we use for therapy is safer than the platforms you may use to talk to your family and friends. Telehealth and RemotEMDR are our current platforms for both regular therapy and EMDR.

​
What are some of the benefits people have expressed that they enjoy in doing online therapy? 

​

• Therapy in bed! Yes, some people like the comfort of sitting on their bed (or couch, chair, at a desk), wrapped up in a blanket with a cup of tea and safe in their own space. Some people like to light a candle or incense, to play soft music, to open or draw the shades, or whatever helps you to feel comfortable and relaxed. Many people like therapy in the safety of their own home.
• Some people have described counselling from their own space as: 
  • accessible
  • safe
  • comfy
• No leaving sessions and going directly into public spaces.
  
• Very few missed appointments due to illness - for both the therapist and individual!
  
• No traffic, no commute time and no parking or bus fees. 
  
• Pets! If you have a pet, they are welcome! Pets can be a great source of comfort and sometimes humour!
