Benefits of Virtual Therapy
-
Gone are the days of waitlists to access a specialist therapist who is local. Virtual therapy expands your access to therapists statewide, broadening your options to find the right fit.
-
Virtual therapy offers the convenience of accessing therapy at a time convenient for you, anywhere within Washington state, making therapy more accessible and adaptable to your lifestyle.
-
Being in a familiar environment can help you feel more at ease and open during our sessions. Would you like to have your pet with you, wear comfortable clothing, or have a favorite soothing item nearby? You can choose what will be around you during your virtual session to support your needs.
-
Virtual therapy is budget-friendly because it saves you money on transportation, time off work, and childcare expenses often associated with traditional face-to-face therapy. It also reduces travel time and logistical hassles.
-
You can schedule virtual sessions at times that work better for your busy schedule. Whether you want to start your day or end your day with therapy, we will work to find a time that is convenient for you.
-
Virtual therapy has been around long before the pandemic. Research shows that online therapy (including virtual EMDR) can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many mental health issues, like anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
You can receive excellent & effective mental health care —
without compromising the time in your schedule or your personal comfort.
What will I need for our virtual therapy sessions?
A Compatible Device
You will need a device with a camera and microphone, such as a laptop, tablet, or smartphone, that supports the telehealth platform. Larger screens are recommended in order to view informational sheets/ handouts for therapy.
NOTE: Consider using Headphones/Earbuds as they can help improve audio quality and maintain privacy during the session.
A Fully Updated Internet Browser
Whether you’re a Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Safari user, make sure you have the most up-to-date version of your internet browser.
Stable Internet Connection
Make sure your internet connection is reliable and fast so we don't get interrupted during our session. Closing any background tabs or programs helps telehealth calls run smoother, as well.
Minimized Distractions
Make sure to mute your notifications and give your household a heads-up about your session to minimize interruptions.
