It is a well-known fact that people are turning to the Internet for many reasons, professional counseling being one of them. Many find online psychological counseling very attractive, thanks to its many benefits, such as:

  • Accessibility and convenience: No matter what part of the world you live in, you can make an appointment and receive professional treatment while staying in the comfort of your familiar environment.
  • You save time and money on commute: Online counseling often works best for very busy people (including stay-at-home mothers) who simply do not have time for an in-person consultation with a psychologist, which sometimes can take as much as several hours, including to – and from-the-session commute. Also, those who live in very small towns or remote areas often do not have access to psychological counseling. Online sessions via Skype offer everything you may need for successful and productive psychological counseling.
  • Immediate follow-up and consistency: During online counseling you are not limited by geographical boundaries, so you can stick to the schedule that works for you, and you do not have to skip sessions because of traveling. This makes therapy more consistent and effective. This is especially important during times of crisis, when it is crucial to provide immediate follow-up according to the changes in the client’s situation or psychological state.
  • Anonymity: Psychologists always adhere to the same ethical and professional standards and regulations during online sessions as they do during “face-to-face” counseling. The clients, however, often perceive online sessions as a safer alternative because they can stay sure that no one will find out about their visit to a psychologist. At the same time, many people may have concerns about the psychologist’s qualifications and professionalism. This is a valid concern, and that is why I posted copies of my professional diplomas and other professional documentation on one of the pages of this website.

In spite of all these benefits, online counseling does have some drawbacks. For example, some of assessment and treatment involves studying posturing, body movement, and voice tone, which is hard to do in the virtual therapy office. In addition to that, online counseling is not suitable during emergencies or for people suffering from severe psychological disorders.
