What is Teletherapy?
Teletherapy is psychotherapy delivered through technology like video conferencing or over the phone. Advanced broadband internet now makes it possible to access real time video conferencing from the comfort of your own home. Teletherapy is an easily accessible, and convenient way to obtain therapy without needing to travel anywhere. Therapists are licensed by state, so if you live in a rural part of a state, you can now access psychotherapy from a trained clinician who lives in a more densely populated area. Due to advances in technology, video and phone calls have become a lot more safe and secure, making teletherapy a confidential, discrete option for many folks.
Teletherapy has been around for awhile, but increased in availability due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Thankfully, technology made it possible for people to continue getting treatment throughout the height of the pandemic. And now, many people find the convenience of teletherapy more appealing than coming into an office. Teletherapy is here to stay, and we will continue to offer it in the safest, and most secure way with our expert therapists at the Center for Growth.
Benefits of Teletherapy
Specialization
Teletherapy is a great option to find an expert in your state, regardless of how far away you are from them. Expert therapists are difficult to locate in most parts of the United States. Most therapists are trained to treat anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and anger problems. For those struggles, a neighborhood therapist is likely an adequate option. However, for issues like personality disorders, C-PTSD and trauma recovery, you might only find specialists in major metropolitan areas. Issues like adoption, sexual compulsive thoughts, feelings and / or behaviors, codependency and veteran care are other examples of issues you’re better off finding a specialist to treat.
Sex therapy is a specific service that is often only available in major cities. And when seeking therapy for specific issues, it can be comforting to know they are at a distance. When you want your confidentiality to be protected, online therapy adds a layer of reassurance that you won’t see a neighbor or friend on the way out of your therapist’s office!
Busy Schedule
Finding the time to attend therapy is a common dilemma for busy people who desire therapy. Many parents with younger children have to be home and might want to seek therapy when their child is down for a nap. And some folks just don’t want the hassle of finding parking in a major city. After commuting, sometimes the process of having therapy can be double the time of the actual therapy session. With advancement in technology, you can see a therapist on your own time, in the space of your own home. At the Center for Growth, not only do we offer teletherapy services, but we have clinicians with a variety of scheduling options to fit your needs.
People with Disabilities
People with disabilities both physical and mental can benefit from teletherapy. People who struggle with agoraphobia or social anxiety may feel better accessing therapy remotely, and the therapist can talk to them within the environment they feel safe in. Physical disabilities of a temporary or permanent nature may post unique obstacles to accessing the right therapist. Folks with hearing or vision impairments, or those with mobility struggles can benefit from having access to teletherapy.
Comfort
Comfort of the therapy space is determined by the individual seeking therapy. For some people, therapy is a ritual. They might have their favorite chair or blanket that brings them comfort and helps them to open up. It can be comforting to wear your favorite baggy T-shirt with mismatched socks, snuggling your pet when you are talking through challenging issues. And it can be lovely to be guided through a therapeutic meditation when in the comfort of your favorite couch.
Other folks may enjoy having therapy behind a closed door in their office space, incorporating therapy into their workday. It’s totally up to the individual what comfort looks and feels like to them.
Detachment
Detachment can be liberating for some folks. The actual physical distance from their therapist allows clients to show up more vulnerable and “raw” in the therapeutic process. A different side of the client can sometimes be revealed. By sitting in a comfortable space and/or by being on the telephone with no visuals at all, some people find it easier to communicate freely and openly. People tend to have fewer boundaries in the virtual world.
Think about the last few months of emails, phone calls or text messages you’ve had with your boss, parents, friends, lover or a date. How might communication have differed if you were sitting in the same room with that person? Many times communicating virtually will shift each person’s experience, or make it easier to say something you otherwise wouldn’t say in-person. This can actually be good practice in gaining the courage to better communicate in the face-to-face realm.
Take it to the Next Level
Individuals who are stuck in repeating patterns with their old therapist may benefit from a fresh new start via teletherapy. It’s easy to arrange for a meeting with a new therapist at the Center for Growth. Perhaps a telephone session might be useful to gain a second opinion or a new perspective. Sometimes it’s necessary to meet with a more experienced, or specialized therapist in order to move to the next level of care.
Increase your Verbal Skills
The success of telephone therapy relies in part on your willingness to grow your verbal skills. Therapy over the phone does not allow for individuals to see nonverbal cues. Virtual communication is much more dependent on your word choice and tone than visual cues. A good therapist can help you to strengthen these critical skills. On-line therapy using streaming video approximates the feel of in-person therapy and may be more preferable to some.
Virtual therapy can be what you need it to be. You are in control of the session’s ambiance. Convenience is on your side in regards to logistics. You have more freedom to disclose intimate details about yourself. Teletherapy allows you to find an expert regardless of your proximity to the clinician, giving you more treatment options.
