Starting Online therapy

What is online therapy?

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.

How does online therapy work?

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.

What is the best option for online therapy?

There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.

Is online therapy just as effective?

Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.

How long does online therapy last?

Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.

How much does online therapy cost?

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.

Need more help deciding?

Online counseling can provide therapy services to patients in a more flexible, accessible way. It brings the services and resources to you, wherever you are and whatever your situation is. 

If you’ve been considering starting therapy but concerned about how to fit it into your life, online therapy could be right for you. If you need help with next steps, Thriveworks can show you how to start virtual therapy in TX, plus offer you in-person services through our Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Round Rock office if you decide that’s the right route for you. Our in-person and online therapists can help you with whatever you’re dealing with, providing support and attention and giving you tools to deal with what you’re facing. Reach out today to get started. 

What Is Online Therapy?

Online therapy is essentially identical to in-person therapy, but it’s conducted online rather than in an office. At Thriveworks, we do our online sessions via secure video conferencing, which can be much more convenient and accessible than traditional therapy.

There are many benefits to online therapy. Since there is no need to leave wherever you are when it’s time for your session, patients save time and money on transportation. Online therapy also cuts down on wait times, increases patient accessibility, and can even reduce stigma.

Online counseling has shown itself to be just as effective and lead to higher patient and counselor satisfaction.

Do I Need Online Counseling?

There are many reasons that people decide to go to therapy, each unique to every patient. However, there are some common signs and feelings that something with your mental health may need to be addressed.

Examples of emotions or behavior that could mean you should see a counselor include:

  • Constant feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness
  • Excessive worry or fear
  • Feelings of restlessness, difficulty making decisions and concentrating
  • Withdrawal from social interaction or those close to you
  • Losing interest in hobbies or activities that used to bring you joy
  • Frequent panic attacks
  • Issues with substance abuse
  • Relationship issues
  • Low self-esteem
  • Intense stress; feeling overwhelmed 

These are some common issues that point to mental health problems, but they are hardly the only reasons for needing help with your mental health. These signs can be due to any number of disorders or experiences, and by speaking with a mental health professional, you and your provider will be able to work through them together and create a treatment plan that’s best for you.

Types of Online Counseling Services

Online counselors offer most of the same service as in-person services. Some of the most commonly-used therapies are:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): Focuses on addressing the connections between one’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, as well as developing healthier behaviors in order to reduce symptoms. Often used to treat anxiety, depression, and other common mental health issues.
  • Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT): Similarly to CBT, DBT focuses on the connection between emotions and behavior, but specifically focuses on emotional regulation, dealing with stress, and addressing relationship problems. Commonly used to treat borderline personality disorder, PTSD, eating disorders, and self-harm, among others.
  • Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy: Concentrates on relieving symptoms resulting from a traumatic or emotionally disturbing experience by using an eight-step process, one of which uses eye-movement to desensitize the patient. 
  • Family therapy: Deals with personal relationships within a family, and therefore will involve multiple patients. This is meant to help address any conflict happening within the family dynamic by teaching good communication skills and other strategies to relieve tension and create a healthier home environment.

I have been working with Dr. Covey for almost 6 months now and she has been excellent. I feel like I am heard and understood even when I have a hard time expressing things myself and putting thoughts into words. Having someone who can actually listen and provide the resources to assist myself with past trauma and current challenges has been a life changer.

★★☆☆☆
This is prior to being seen so this is strictly based on first impressions upon entering the building. The waiting area is nice but undefined as to where one should go nor any indications as to what is needed to be done. No one was there to greet us nor was there any desk or window to suggest someone would. We looked for the therapist's office but no doors had any identification to point us in the right direction. At this point we're at the mercy of the clock alerting the therapist to seek us out in the waiting area in order to be seen. Not the best first impression. I will update this review if and when we are seen.

Easy and convenient to book according to my schedule. I feel like I'm learning and making progress with Mrs. Antoine. She is extremely kind and empathetic. I would recommend a friend to Thriveworks because of my experience with her.
