Five Ways an Online Counselling Service Can Make Your Life Easier
Posted: Jan 09, 2016
Studies have shown that online counselling and therapy sessions can be effectively used for a variety of mental health issues ranging from depression, anxiety, and panic attacks to personal relationship problems, especially when these are combined with cognitive behaviour therapy. But for an online counselling service to be effective, you must check that it is staffed by a competent and compassionate counsellor.
And when you find the best online counsellor, you will enjoy the following benefits that can make your life easier, perhaps even happier.
Easy Access
Online and telephone counselling services can be accessed in a fast, easy and convenient way from the comfort and privacy of your home. You just log into the website, ask for a live chat or send an email or dial the telephone number provided, and start your counselling session – no travelling, no setting up of appointments, and no waiting in the reception room necessary.
You will find that online and phone counselling sessions will fit into your busy schedule and accommodate your special needs. You will be enjoying the benefits of counselling without the hassles that come with face-to-face counselling!
Comparatively Affordable
Web counselling can be more economical (i.e., practical in the monetary sense) for both the counsellor and client. You, as the client, can save on the costs of travelling to and from the counsellor’s office while the counsellor can save on the operations costs of maintaining an office. You will benefit from the lower counselling fees in this manner.
Social Stigma Reduced
You may be embarrassed about getting counselling for your marriage and relationship troubles, for example, and you just skip on it. You now have the opportunity to seek counselling services without the social stigma attached to them through web counselling. You will even find that you are more open and honest with your counsellor when you are in the comfort of your own bedroom.
Increased Anonymity
Your online counselling sessions will also likely be more productive because of your more open and honest approach. Your relative anonymity contributes to your improved attitude, too, especially since your counsellor will have lesser biases for race, physical appearance, and size, among other factors. Your worries about being judged will be removed and your life becomes easier for it, too.
Communication Methods
With online counselling, you have several methods to communicate with your counsellor. You can choose from live chats, emails, and telephone calls depending on the urgency of your personal issues.
Why make your life more difficult than it already is? You can make your life easier and happier by trying online counselling today!
