ONLINE THERAPY IS CONVENIENT & TIMELY

Years ago online therapy was becoming more popular because of flexibility and convenience, being able to have sessions wherever you feel comfortable and safe.

Now years into the pandemic, online counseling for women is more crucial than ever before. It seems like everything we were already struggling with: anxiety, depression, trauma... all seem like they magnified while we navigated social isolation.

Connect With A Therapist Through Online Therapy

Many people find they are more comfortable talking with their therapist online than perhaps they would have in person.

Online therapy sessions are like Facetime or Skype. But they are conducted on a secure virtual platform. We've even done online therapy ourselves, from the comfort of our own beds in pj's (loved it!).

It's been proven that online counseling for women can be just as effective as in-person therapy. Although it isn't for everyone. If you are interested in online therapy sessions, let's get you set up for a consult. Empowered Mind Therapy can provide online therapy to anyone who resides in California. Plus we are able to provide both Brainspotting and EMDR online.

Common Questions About Online Therapy

Is EMDR online an option?

Yes! There are multiple ways EMDR therapy can be conducted online. Your EMDR treatment, either weekly EMDR or Intensive EMDR, is available to you online.

Can I see an EMTC therapist if I’m not in California?

Unfortunately no. Empowered Mind Therapy Center therapists are only licensed to practice therapy in California. California Law required that therapists licensed in CA can only see clients who are physically in CA.

Can Brainspotting be done virtually?

Definitely, your therapist is trained in different setups to utilize the technique whether you are in person or online. Brainspotting can be used wherever you are.

Are the Fees different for Online Therapy?

Fees are generally determined by the length of the session, not the session location. Fees for Intensive programs, however, are different because they offer a higher level of preparation and engagement.

Is Online Therapy any less effective than in person?

Online therapy has proven to be just as effective as in-person therapy. However, some may find in person may be a better fit for them personally.

Do I need special equipment for Online Counseling?

At a minimum, you will need a device with video capacities, and a strong internet connection. You will need a private space for you to have sessions, with earphones/buds to protect the confidentiality of the session.
