why use online counseling services?

The mental health field was turned upside down in 2020. The pandemic pushed the need for service accessibility to priority number one. As a provider, I had never held an online counseling session! Years into the pandemic, and counselors have become experts in this method of treatment.

As the pandemic concluded, counseling and other health related services continued online. This is a great opportunity to find a therapist suited to your needs.

Accessible

States license mental health providers according to their own standards. This means you have access to providers throughout the entire state you reside. For example, if you reside in Ozaukee County, Wisconsin you can find a provider across the state in La Crosse County, Wisconsin.

convenient

Reside in a rural area of Wisconsin? Hold a busy schedule as a stay-at-home mom, dad, or grandparent? Or maybe your profession keeps you consumed frequently? Just prefer an online format? It goes without saying, connecting to your appointment online or even by phone, allows for less travel time and schedule shuffling. And, speaking of Wisconsin - the weather becomes much less of a factor when counseling online in the comfort of home.

effective

Studies have indicated online therapy is just as effective, if not more effective than face to face counseling.
