FAQs about Pennsylvania online counseling
Online counseling at our platform is designed to offer convenience and effectiveness. You’ll start by scheduling an appointment, just as you would for an in-person session. Once your appointment is confirmed, you’ll receive an email containing a secure video conference link. Simply click the link at the scheduled time to start your therapy session.
However, if you’re not comfortable with video conferencing or have technical limitations, your therapist will be adaptable. They may reach out to you via phone, email, or text, depending on your preference. You and your therapist will agree on the communication method that suits you best.
Regardless of how you connect, your session will begin in a confidential and supportive environment, where you can openly discuss your concerns and receive expert guidance. Our aim is to make online counseling accessible and tailored to your unique needs, providing the support you need from the comfort of your chosen setting.
Your professional counseling team is available from Monday to Friday. You can secure an appointment in as little as 24 hours. In certain urgent situations, we can even arrange an appointment sooner than that to accommodate your needs. We understand the importance of timely support and are here to make your scheduling process as seamless as possible.
Your therapy session will last for approximately an hour, and the exact time depends on your insurance. The frequency and length of your treatment sessions are tailored to your individualized treatment goals and diagnosis. This is a great question to ask your therapist. 95% of our clients are in weekly therapy sessions for the first 3 months.
Certainly! You can access our online counseling services, granting you the flexibility to get matched with a counselor who aligns with your preferences, regardless of your location or insurance coverage. Our team of multilingual counselors is dedicated to assisting you on your journey towards improved mental health.
