Is doing Therapy online right for you?
Despite its benefits and wide availability, online therapy is not right for everybody. We offer online therapy under the right circumstances, but there are some caveats and guidelines to which we must adhere. These requirements have to do with your privacy, our compliance, and the success and efficiency of the therapeutic process.
Ultimately, the goal of therapy is to make you feel better, so it’s essential to ensure we remain within the guidelines. Some things to know about online therapy:
- We offer online therapy throughout Washington State only
- Online therapy is for individuals as well as couples
