Online Therapy in New Jersey Can Help
I’ve actually been providing online therapy since 2018—yes, that’s two years before COVID! When I first started working at a group practice that offered video therapy, I was a bit skeptical—could it really be as effective as in-person sessions? I quickly realized that not only did most of my clients made progress just as fast online, but they even preferred the convenience of meeting with a therapist from their own safe space at home. By the time the pandemic hit in 2020, my clients and I were already set up for success with video sessions. I haven’t looked back—online therapy offers a level of flexibility and convenience that is so crucial in the busy world we live in. You don’t have to take my word for it - many studies have shown that telehealth is just as effective as in-person care.
Benefits of Online Therapy
Saves You Time
You are a busy high achieving woman, you don’t have time for sitting in traffic to get to therapy! No need to rush back from your weekend at the shore to meet at an office, or take the entire morning off from work to attend a 50 minute appointment. Online therapy provides you the flexibility to meet from wherever you have a comfortable and private space with secure internet, whether that’s at home, in your office or at your parent’s house in the suburbs.
Greater Access to High Quality Care
Online therapy allows you to connect to specialists from all over the state. Maybe you live in a small town where there isn’t much access to mental healthcare. Maybe your neighborhood doesn’t have a specialist trained in the issue you are looking to treat, or there aren’t many providers of diverse backgrounds in your immediate area. Online therapy allows you to see a provider who may live miles away from you, but gets you in a way that someone more local to where you live may not.
Flexible and Effective
Not online is online therapy as effective as in-person, many clients actually feel that they are more comfortable opening up in their own home than they would in a sterile office space. Attending therapy appointments through video allows for greater flexibility with childcare, reduces the need for meticulously planning ahead, and allows you the freedom to choose where is most comfortable and convenient for you to meet.
Online Therapy for Anxiety
Online therapy is shown to be incredibly effective for treating anxiety in women. If you are a woman struggling with anxiety, people-pleasing or perfectionism, you may frequently find yourself feeling over scheduled and overwhelmed, rushing from one commitment to the next. Your busy schedule leaves little time for navigating the unknowns of an in-person commute to therapy, creating one more barrier to getting the help you need. Attending therapy virtually, in the comfort of your own home can help lessen your anxiety about starting therapy and make it easier for you to open up and see progress. Many women find that discussing sensitive topics feels more comfortable in their own safe space. Learn more about:
