Starting Online therapy

What is online therapy?

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.

How does online therapy work?

Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.

What is the best option for online therapy?

There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.

Is online therapy just as effective?

Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.

How long does online therapy last?

Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.

How much does online therapy cost?

At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.

Taking care of your mental health is an essential part of maintaining balance and wellness in your life. Work, school, relationships, and other responsibilities can take a toll on your mental wellbeing and occasionally cause stress and other challenges to your mental health. Working with a licensed therapist or counselor can help you navigate life’s many challenges and maintain good mental health. But for some people, finding the time to commute to and from a therapist’s office isn’t always possible.

Many people miss out on getting the mental health care they need because they don’t have the time or means to attend in-person therapy. Online counseling can offer a solution by providing a more accessible, convenient approach to therapy with fewer constraints and obstacles.

If you’ve been thinking about starting therapy but haven’t been able to make the traditional format fit into your life, consider pursuing online counseling with Thriveworks Counseling in Lexington, KY. You can schedule your first therapy session through our online portal or by phone today and may be able to speak with a licensed mental health professional this week.

What Online Therapy Services Does Thriveworks Offer?

Online therapy is just like traditional counseling and can provide the same support and guidance you need to overcome the unique challenges you’re facing. Online counseling primarily differs from traditional therapy in the way you connect with your provider. Rather than meeting face-to-face, you’ll speak with one another via video chat.

Just about any therapy or counseling can be conducted online, including the following:

  • Life coaching and career counseling
  • Relationship counseling
  • Family therapy and child therapy
  • Anxiety counseling
  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Exposure therapy for specific phobias
  • Anger and stress management
  • Psychiatric therapy
  • Depression therapy
  • Anger and stress management
  • LGBTQ+ counseling
  • PTSD counseling and trauma therapy
  • Grief and loss counseling

Getting Help Online: How Does it Work?

It is common for other factors to get in the way of pursuing traditional therapy or counseling. Reliable transportation and childcare resources, for example, are luxuries to which many don’t have regular access. Disability, physical illness, and certain mental health issues can also impede your ability to attend in-person therapy and counseling sessions.

Online counseling helps you break through the barriers that are standing in the way of getting help. When you choose to begin online counseling, you decide whether you’d like to connect with your online therapist via video chat. Meeting with a licensed counselor or therapist via video chat is a great way to simulate face-to-face therapy or counseling. Some people find it easier to form a relationship with online therapists or communicate more effectively using facial expressions, hand gestures, and body language.

No matter where you are in your journey to better mental health, online counseling with Thriveworks in Lexington, KY can help you take the next step. Our online therapists make it even easier for you to get started by offering flexible appointments and accepting many insurance plans.

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
