Evanston Therapy Online Perk #1: Convenience
No transportation issues – With online therapy, forget the mad dash across town to get to your appointment. Trouble finding a parking spot gets checked off of the list.
If transportation is no longer a concern there may be other reasons why telehealth is more convenient for you.
For instance, finding childcare doesn’t have to be on your radar. You can sneak away for your therapy session while your child naps. One less piece to manage with the limited energy you have.
Let’s be real. Some days you are just not able to get out of the house. A physical illness or overwhelming emotions will not be a limiting factor. You can meet with your therapist without having to leave home.
Evanston Therapy Online Perk #2: Being in Your Own Space
You can work through life’s challenges in a space you know well, that comfy spot on your couch, your favorite chair in your living room or your bed. (BTW, our office is a private, peaceful place, too!) Yet, being in your own space is a win.
Evanston Therapy Online Perk #3: A Little Bit of Distance is Not a Bad Thing
You might like not sitting directly across from your therapist. For you, the added distance through cyberspace is a plus. It wipes out some of the added anxiety of being in the same room with your therapist. Somehow, you feel less judged and more at peace.
Evanston Therapy Online Perk #4: Let’s Keep a Good Thing Going
A lot of personal energy goes into building a relationship with your therapist. It’s exhausting (and a little scary) to think of having to go through finding and getting to know someone new. Leaving your therapist could cause your heart to feel heavy, like after a breakup.
If you move from Evanston after graduation or relocate for work, you can continue to work with us if you live in Illinois. And even if you move out of state, online therapy may still be an option. Our ability to work with people who reside outside of Illinois varies on regulations from state to state. Please check with us to see if we are authorized to provide online therapy in your new state. We’ll do what we can to walk through the ups and downs, excitement, and fear of this new change in your life, to help you remember that you are not as lost or alone as you may think you are.
