Online Therapy Options
You used to have a commute, a busy work life, and a crazy family schedule…but now it doesn’t even feel safe to leave your living room.
The excuses of “I don’t get off work until 6” or “I’m so busy running my kids around” might not feel relevant for you anymore. Now the questions that are settling into your bones are, “How can I take care of myself during this weird time? When will this be over? How can I plan for anything when I’m so stressed out? Where can I get the support I need?”
Maybe you’re too tired from everything else.
We get it. Chances are high that you’re learning how to do this whole work-life balance in a whole new context. Maybe you’re feeling crushingly isolated. Maybe you’ve got some new “co-workers” who aren’t exactly helpful. You might be sharing space with a roommate or partner who is also feeling the crunch of this new paradigm.
Adding anything beyond what you normally do can feel like it’s too much right now. But, imagine feeling better after a 50 minute therapy session instead of looking up bewildered after doom scrolling the internet for 3 hours.
As long as you have access to a phone or computer with a webcam, you’re all set to get started.
Technology can be a gift!
Technology can be a double edged sword, but we like to see it as a gift in the context of therapy. Technology makes therapy very accessible to busy people-AND to people who are now spending most of their time at home!
It has become very apparent this year that connecting online is an easy and viable way to hold any sort of gathering, and meeting with a therapist is no exception!
Teletherapy is the new direction of mental health. It allows us to provide an extremely high level of care without the stress of a commute, lessens scheduling conflicts, and keeps all of our health protected during these unusual times. An added bonus is that you get to wear your pajamas to therapy if you want. You can meet with your therapist from your couch, sitting outside, from your bedroom, or maybe hidden away on the floor of your closet. You get to show up however you need to!
Give it a try! You’ll probably love it.
The good news here is that you don’t have to “wait until this is all over” to begin feeling better. Our entire staff is set up to begin meeting with new clients online and we want to help you NOW.
Reach out to us today we can get you setup with a therapist this week using teletherapy.
