ONLINE COUNSELLING
IS ONLINE COUNSELLING AS EFFECTIVE AS IN PERSON?
The short answer is yes.
Multiple studies have shown that online counselling is as effective as in-person counselling for a variety of mental health conditions.
With online counselling, we take the same approach of prioritizing the therapeutic relationship and using evidence-based specialties. We use secure video platforms to ensure privacy and safety.
REASONS TO CHOOSE ONLINE COUNSELLING
-
Convenient: You don't have to drive across town
-
Comfortable: You can stay in pajamas, cozy up with a blanket or pet, and be in the comfort of your own home
-
Access from anywhere: You can be anywhere in BC and receive quality counselling services
-
Fits your busy schedule: You can fit an online session into your day at whatever time is convenient for you.
-
An option when abilities are limited: If you're sick, injured, can't find childcare, or are simply not feeling like getting out of the house, online counselling can still be utilized.
CAN EMDR AND DBT THERAPY BE DONE ONLINE?
Yes!
All therapy specialties we utilize can be done virtually.
We even have a special program for virtual EMDR that makes it easily accessible with a pair of headphones and a computer. If you are hearing impaired, or do not have access to headphones and a computer, there are other ways we can still effectively administer EMDR therapy, such as tapping and eye-movements.
