Advantages of online CBT

Access therapy from wherever you are!

Online Therapy:
A flexible and effective way to work with CBT from the convenience of your home or wherever you are.

Convenience:
Access therapy at the convenience of your preferred location. You can have ‘face to face’ online therapy appointments anywhere with a reliable internet connection and privacy to talk.

Telephone therapy:
You can access therapy without the need for a WiFi connection.

Easy access:
High quality CBT is also accessible if you have transport difficulties, mobility restrictions due to physical health issues or if anxiety would be a barrier for attending clinic-based appointments.

Continuity and flexibility:
Bringing therapy to you should you find it difficult to commit to regular office-based therapy appointments due to commitments such as carer responsibilities, work schedule or frequent travel.

Therapy without borders:
Therapy is available for you also if you live or travel abroad.

Discreet:
Offers anonymity when living in a small community.

Cost effective:
Eliminates travel time and travel costs.

Reduced fear of being judged:
Clients have reported reduced fear of being judged and increased ability to open up quickly in therapy sessions. ‘Physical distance’ coupled with therapist emotional presence in this interactive way of working has been reported to be conducive for the therapy process.

Innovative ways of working:
Online and Telephone therapy lends itself for creative and effective ways of applying CBT theory in practice. CBT is an active form of therapy. Therapist may help the individual to carry out carefully planned and mutually agreed “live” work during the therapy session. For example, I can support you by staying online or on the phone when you are taking steps towards overcoming agoraphobia, panic, social anxiety or OCD.
