Online Therapy for Residents of Coconut Creek, Florida

What are the benefits of online counseling?

Time Saving- There are only so many hours in the day and no one really wants to spend 30 minutes driving to an appointment and another 30 minutes driving home. You just gained an additional hour in your day to do something you enjoy! You no longer have to worry about making it to your appointment on time. If the traffic on State Road 869 (Sawgrass Expressway) is an issue, you can relax knowing that with the click of a button you can be on time for your session.

Weather- As you know living in South Florida the weather is unpredictable. One minute it is sunny outside and the next it is raining. Think of how much better it is that you can attend your online therapy session as scheduled without having to think about weather. Rain is often a factor in car accidents not to mention that your commute takes SO much longer. The conveniences of online therapy, remove stressful variables that prevent you from having your session.

Confidentiality- Walking into a therapist’s office can cause anxiety. Many people worry about running into someone they know in the waiting room or are concerned with friends or family seeing them in the parking lot. Online counseling makes it easier to overcome the stigma historically attached to mental health significantly. Perhaps you do not want to explain to your boss why you need to leave in the middle of the day once a week for an appointment. Online therapy gives you the flexibility to engage in a session on your lunch break (many of my clients participate from the privacy of their parked vehicle). Online therapy gives you the privacy you need as you will participate in the session through a platform that is HIPAA compliant, VeriSign security seal (multiple layers of encryption), and HITRUST certified (the gold standard of security certifications in the healthcare industry).
