Is online therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

Is online therapy as effective as in-person therapy? Absolutely. Online therapy can be just as impactful as traditional in-person sessions for many individuals. It offers not only meaningful connections and emotional support but also proven results. Numerous studies demonstrate that virtual therapy effectively addresses challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and a variety of other mental health issues. Through secure video calls that comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), you can experience the same level of therapeutic presence, guidance, and coping strategies as you would in person—all without the hassle of commuting or taking time off work. Moreover, online therapy cultivates a comfortable environment, empowering you to open up and share your thoughts from the safety of your own space. With consistency and the right therapist, you can achieve significant healing and personal growth online. Choose the path that fits your life and well-being, and discover the transformative potential of online therapy.

Do you accept insurance?

I am primarily a private-pay provider, which allows me to offer flexible, individualized care without the limitations often imposed by insurance, such as session caps or mandatory diagnoses. To make therapy more accessible, I offer a sliding scale fee based on financial need. While I do accept a limited number of insurance clients, those spots are currently in high demand and often have a waiting list due to the number of individuals seeking to work with me. If you’re interested in using insurance, feel free to reach out to check availability or discuss alternative options.

How do I get started?

Getting started is simple. Just reach out through the contact page and provide details about what you’re looking for. From there, we’ll schedule a free discovery call to determine if we’re a good fit for therapy. If we decide to move forward, we’ll schedule your first appointment—an initial intake assessment where you can share your current challenges, symptoms, and goals you’d like to work on. It’s important to remember that therapy is a process, not a quick fix. Healing takes time, and meaningful change happens through consistent work, compassion, and realistic expectations.
