Online Therapy: Is Telehealth Right for You?
Online therapy, also known as telehealth, has become increasingly popular over the past few years—and for good reason. It offers convenience, flexibility, and access to care that might otherwise be out of reach. But how do you know if telehealth is right for you?
What Is Online Therapy?
Online therapy is simply the process of meeting with a licensed therapist through secure video conferencing. At Healing Parts Therapy, we use HIPAA-compliant platforms to ensure your privacy and confidentiality, so you can feel just as safe online as you would in a traditional office.
Benefits of Telehealth
Convenience: Attend therapy from the comfort of your own home, without the commute.
Accessibility: Great for people in rural areas or with limited mobility.
Consistency: Keep up with sessions even when traveling or during inclement weather.
Comfort: Some clients feel more at ease opening up from their personal space.
Concerns About Online Therapy Some people worry that online therapy won’t feel as personal or connected. But many find that once the session begins, the virtual format fades into the background. What matters most is the quality of the relationship with your therapist.
To help you feel more engaged, we recommend:
Finding a quiet, private space
Using headphones for better sound and focus
Having a journal or water nearby
