Online Therapy & Counselling Services
Online counselling provides you with safe and secure support
What
What is online counselling?
Also known as e-counselling, internet counselling, web therapy or remote therapy, this kind of counselling is a good solution for people who need counselling but cannot get to a therapist’s office. It’s also a solution for those who prefer to keep in contact at a distance from wherever they are.
Please note, I don’t offer counselling by email or SMS.
How
How online counselling works
Technology today offers us the opportunity to connect safely and securely online using any device that has camera and audio capabilities. It is an effective platform that provides invaluable support when other commitments or distance makes attending in person difficult.
Your session will be arranged in advance and you can decide whether you’d like us to speak to each other via a video call or just talk over the phone.
Online counselling works in the same way as face to face therapy. The session structures work in the same way, and the approach will be tailored to you in exactly the same way it would be if we were meeting in person.
Why choose online counselling?
Location
They wish to see a therapist outside of the area that they live in.
Lack of Time
They are unable to schedule a face to face appointment around school or work commitments. Online therapy eliminates journey time and can fit into a lunch break.
Physical Hurdles
Some clients have physical difficulties that may prevent them from travelling easily, preferring the comfort of their own home.
Agoraphobia or Social Anxiety
Certain phobias and mental health issues may prevent clients from travelling or spending time in new environments.
Shyness or Embarrassment
They prefer to keep their counselling sessions online and remote because it feels more confidential and discreet.
Work Travel
They want an online session if they travel with work and are unable to attend in person.

Counselling from the comfort of your home
Some people feel that having online counselling from the comfort of their own home or office is more convenient, and allows them to discuss personal issues more openly without feeling embarrassed, guilty or shameful.
You can use a mobile phone, laptop or desktop computer and talk in a room where you know you won’t be overheard.
