What is online counseling?
Online counseling (also known as video counseling, telemedicine, or teletherapy) is a commonly used alternative to in-person therapy or counseling. Online counseling is live, face-to-face counseling using HIPAA-compliant video technology that you can access on any mobile device, laptop, or desktop computer. Almost everything about online counseling is the same as in-office visits, with the addition of improved convenience.
What are the benefits of online counseling?
- You can see your therapist from any private location–including your home or office
- Reduced time away from family or work–you no longer need to travel to see your therapist
- Our office can bill most insurances for online counseling in the same way we bill for in-person visits
- You can still see your therapist, even if you are unable to leave your home
Call or text our office at 801-407-4134 to schedule an online counseling appointment today.
