Benefits of Online Therapy:
- Increased access - Are you wanting to make sure you limit your in person interactions at this time as much as possible? Do you worry about going to meet a therapist in person? Do you live in an area where there are limited options when it comes to mental health counselors who fit your needs? I am able to provide individual and couples counseling to all Florida residents and not be contained to one city.
- Convenient and removes barriers - You are in your space for the sessions and you have peace of mind about not having to leave home to get help. Online counseling also allows for flexibility so you can schedule when it's most convenient for you.
- Effectiveness - Research has shown that distance counseling is just as beneficial as face-to-face therapy.
- Authenticity - Some people find that the security of being behind a screen allows for their "real" self to emerge, creating a more meaningful counseling experience than in person.
- Social Justice - I am able to provide help to marginalized populations - those who live in rural areas who don't have access to therapists who are the best fit for them.
Considerations:
- Confidentiality - Online counseling requires a private, quiet space for you to video chat so that you won't be interrupted or distracted.
- Adequate technology - A webcam and a microphone on your device are necessary for online therapy, as well as stong WiFi signal.
- Navigating technical issues - Occasionally things happen...Do you have average computer skills and some patience to work through hiccups?
The counseling field has moved in a new direction - to provide therapy online!

Distance counseling, telebehavioral health, and online therapy are some terms you may have heard used before. WeCounsel is a HIPAA compliant and encrypted site I use in order to provide video sessions - this means your private info stays more secure and confidential.
