Online Video Therapy
As a Registered Social Worker my work is governed by set of professional standards and ethics that apply to both face to face and online therapy. This includes a commitment to confidentiality as well as competent and respectful services. The same high standards of practice that one expects in face to face counselling are also ensured in online therapy.
Advantages of Online Therapy
ACCESSIBILITY
Timing is crucial when one embarks on the process of making and implementing changes in their lives. Online therapy offers a unique benefit in allowing someone to connect with help quickly, privately and in a format that is familiar and easy to access. There are no lengthy wait lists, set appointment times or long distances to travel.
COMFORT
Many people feel overwhelmed by the prospect of meeting with someone for face to face for counselling. Worries about privacy and feeling overwhelmed in an unfamiliar setting can create significant barriers for accessing help. Online therapy overcomes this barrier by allowing people to access help from the comfort of their own home.
