The last thing you need in your busy life is another appointment. Whether you’re a student, professional, parent, or constant traveler, it seems you don’t even have time for your self-care practices. So, how could you squeeze in a drive across town when you’ve got a million other things to do? Well, the thing is, therapy isn’t “just another appointment.” It’s so much more than that. A space for you to speak freely, find solutions, and connect with yourself. And online therapy allows you to make these appointments a reality, despite your jam-packed schedule.

The clients I work with using online counselling have found it to be just as helpful as in-person therapy sessions. In fact, many have come to actually prefer it to the more traditional therapy format. They’ve shared many benefits of online therapy, and I’m excited to fill you in on all these advantages, too.

An Online Counsellor Meets You Where You Are

Because I work with clients using video meetings instead of in-person sessions, I am able to meet with people from all over the place! I started my therapy practice in Chicago, IL then moved to St. Kitts, and am now located in the United Kingdom. So, I’m licensed to provide online therapy in many places! Keep in mind, I have to be licensed in the place you live in to be able to work with you. Wondering if we can do online counselling based on your location? There are some licensure considerations, so please reach out to me and we can talk about it!

The locations I am currently licensed in include all of the states involved in the PSYPACT program in the United States, along with Illinois, Indiana, and Florida. And since I am currently located in the United Kingdom, I’m really looking forward to working with my new neighbors with online therapy in the UK! Likewise, I identify as an ex-pat myself, so I uniquely understand the ex-pat experience. Because of this experience, I work with ex-pats across the globe. Again, if you’re wondering if we can work together, reach out to me!

Online Counselling Helps You Find a Specialized Counsellor

My clients appreciate that I’m able to meet with them wherever they’re at for a few reasons. Perhaps you live in a secluded community, whether that be a small, rural town, or an island. You may not have a lot of choices when it comes to therapists. So if you’re looking for things like CBT for insomnia, mindfulness practices, or support as an ex-pat, you may not find a therapist in your area that’s specialized. And it can feel overwhelming and discouraging to spend hours looking for the right counsellor who is also convenient for you to see regularly.

Similarly, many of the clients I’ve worked with over the years have been big travelers. Whether they travel for business, relaxation, or just don’t stay in one spot for too long, online therapy can be a constant for them. Let’s say you’re an ex-pat who’s constantly on the move. You deserve to have a consistent therapist, too! Just because you moved again doesn’t mean you have to get a new therapist and start the whole process over. Online therapy can help you get consistent support while you live your life to the fullest.

Other Benefits of Online Counselling in the UK

Some other benefits my clients have shared about online counselling have to do with its comfort and convenience. When you meet with an online therapist, you can plop down on the couch in your pj’s with your pet next to you. And you don’t have to worry about seeing anyone you know at a therapy office if you’re concerned about privacy. Additionally, you don’t have to deal with the headache of driving (or should I say sitting) in traffic. The extra thirty minutes or more that most people spend driving, parking, and dealing with traffic for a therapy appointment isn’t necessary when there’s online therapy available to you.
