Online Therapy
Flexible support to fit your lifestyle. Work on your mental health whenever and wherever suits you
Online therapy is a type of therapy that is conducted over the internet, using video, voice, or messaging systems. It allows people to receive counselling services remotely, from the comfort of their own homes or wherever they have access to a computer with an internet connection.
Online therapy has become increasingly popular in recent years due to its convenience, accessibility, and flexibility. It can be particularly helpful for those who live in remote areas or have difficulty travelling to face-to-face therapy sessions. It can also be a useful option for those with limited time to commute, or who choose the commodity of working with a therapist from home.
Our experts have experience delivering therapy online and will make sure you feel as comfortable as in an in-person session.

Online therapy vs face-to-face
As successful as face-to-face therapy
A growing body of research shows that online therapy has comparable efficacy and is capable of reproducing the conditions of in-person sessions (Day, & Schneider, 2000; Richards & Viganó, 2013; Cohen, & Kerr, 1998). Positive results have been observed in online therapy for several issues, including anxiety (Cohen, & Kerr, 1998), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; Lange, et al., 2000), eating disorders (Celio, et al., 2000), and panic disorder with agoraphobia (Bouchard, et al., 2000).
As such, online therapy works as well as face-to-face therapy, and although they have differences, it is usually a matter of preference for the person attending therapy. Whatever works best for you will have the best results.
Same interventions used
Our online therapy service is comparable to face-to-face sessions. We offer the same type of interventions that you would be given in a therapy room by a qualified therapist, that receives regular clinical supervision.
We make sure that all aspects of the human connection are present, regardless of the platform used (in-person, video conferencing, or phone)
Time-saving
Meeting with your therapist online saves you time commuting. Life can get busy at times and online therapy makes it easier for those struggling with time to get access to therapy, without having to leave the house
No geographical limitations
You can go on holiday without missing any appointment with your therapist. Also, if you live in a more remote area, you don’t have the problem of travelling long distances to see a counsellor. Anywhere you go, you can take us with you!
Accessibility
Online therapy is a great resource for those with mobility issues.
Anonymity and privacy
Online therapy can give people a greater sense of anonymity and privacy for people who prefer not to be seen going to a therapy clinic.
Timetable flexibility
It is easier to fit the therapy sessions if you take them online. Whether that means having the sessions at lunch break from a safe place in your workplace, or home the first time in the morning or last time at night, you only need a computer and internet connection.
Increased options for therapists
You are not limited to the therapists or counsellors based in your area, which gives you a wider range of therapists to choose from.
Using online resources
It brings the possibility to share videos, images, links, or other resources during the therapy session.
