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.
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.

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.

What Mental Health Issues Can Be Addressed in Online Therapy?
Mental health issues can mean something different for everyone. Some of us are struggling with depression and anxiety or other mental health conditions, while others are struggling with stress, relationship issues, and other challenges that negatively affect our mental health.
Regardless of the exact issue, a mental health professional can help us break the problem down, work through it well, and then come out stronger on the other end. And here at Thriveworks in Jersey City, our counselors and psychologists can help you do this in telehealth sessions.
Now, there are common or widespread mental health issues that many of us deal with at some point in our lives. For example
- Mental health conditions: As we mentioned earlier, some of us struggle with depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders. These come with harmful symptoms that change life as we know it. If you are experiencing any symptoms of depression, anxiety, or another mental disorder, it’s important you talk to a counselor or another medical professional. And if you’d prefer to do this from the comfort of your home, you can do so in an online counseling session at Thriveworks.
- Stress: Some people classify stress as a normal part of life, and while that might be true, that doesn’t mean that it isn’t harmful. When stress sticks around, it can make life very unpleasant and wreak havoc on our mental health. If you’re feeling stressed, consider talking about it with an online therapist. The act of talking about what you’re feeling and experiencing can be stress-relieving in itself.
- Relationship issues or conflicts: It is also common to have problems or conflicts in our relationships: those with our romantic partners, our family members, and our friends. Sometimes, these problems can spin out of control or be difficult to talk about. If this is true for you, consider working with an online counselor who has specific skills working with couples and/or families. They can guide tough, yet important conversations and help you get to a healthier place in your relationships.
