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.
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.
While we don’t always open up about how we’re feeling, we do all experience a range of emotions on a daily basis. We might feel angry one day and then sad the next; we might feel disappointed or defeated after a tough conversation with a loved one; we might feel unmotivated or unenthusiastic about going to work. This list could go on virtually forever. The takeaway is that we all encounter emotional struggles as well as other mental health challenges that threaten our wellbeing.
Fortunately, we can learn to manage these emotional and mental challenges, with the help of a mental health counselor. Counselors, therapists, and psychologists all have unique skills, experience, training, and specialties that enable them to help people with these varying problems.
Give yourself a break. Stop beating yourself up. Everyone makes mistakes,
has setbacks and failures. You don’t come with a book on how to get it right
all the time. You will fail sometimes, not because you planned to, but simply
because you’re human. Failure is a part of creating a great life.”
–Les Brown

Explore the Benefits of Online Counseling at Thriveworks Louisiana
Why is online counseling important? Why is it so popular? Because there are many benefits that one can find in online counseling that aren’t promised in in-person counseling. Consider:
- You can always count on having your session. When it comes to in-person counseling, there are certain elements that might get in your way of attending your counseling session week by week. For example, poor weather conditions or sudden fever might cause you to reschedule. In online counseling, though, these elements don’t have to prevent you from having your scheduled session. Now, if you do have to reschedule or cancel for whatever reason, you of course still have the option!
- You can look forward to utmost comfort. Another perk of online counseling is just how comfortable it is. We mean physically, mentally, and emotionally! Let’s start with physically. Because online counseling is conducted in a virtual environment, you can attend from wherever you can take your phone or computer with you. All you need is device and internet access. Now, mentally and emotionally: Many people also find that it’s easier to open up from a distance, which means quicker or even greater progress than one might achieve in in-person counseling.
- You can enjoy greater convenience. You don’t have to worry about rushing to your appointment, in online counseling. Think about it: How many times have you had to hurry to your appointment or been worried you wouldn’t make it in time? (This goes for any appointment, not just counseling.) Well say goodbye to the rushing and the worrying. Online counseling makes counseling more convenient than ever before.
We truly believe that online counseling is a great option for many people looking for mental health help. And often, clients will find additional benefits, which will depend on what they’re looking to get out of counseling. To explore and experience the benefits of online counseling, get started now.
