It is a great alternative for those who; live in rural areas, people who are homebound, those who travel frequently, people who are overly busy to register for regular appointments, or those who are simply ashamed to talk to someone face to face about their personal issues. Online therapy is private, secure, and discrete. It is not a substitute for traditional psychotherapy. Working with a therapist in person is still the ideal setting to resolve your emotional struggles.
It is not intended for those suffering from chronic or severe mental illness or experiencing suicidal thoughts. |
