Frequently Asked Questions about Online Telehealth Appointments

What is Telehealth Counselling and How Does It Work?

Telehealth counselling is a form of therapy that allows individuals to receive mental health counselling and support remotely, via video calls or phone calls. It utilises digital technology to connect therapists and clients in real-time, providing a virtual alternative to traditional in-person therapy sessions.

Can Online Therapy be as Effective as In-Person Therapy?

Yes, online therapy can be just as effective as in-person therapy for many individuals. Numerous studies have shown that online therapy is beneficial for treating a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders. The convenience and accessibility of online therapy also make it an attractive option for those who live remotely, those with busy schedules or those with limited mobility.

It’s important to note that the effectiveness of therapy depends on various factors, such as the individual’s specific needs, their therapeutic relationship with the psychologist or counsellor, and their commitment to the therapy process. Online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, and some individuals may prefer or require in-person sessions for certain reasons.
