Online Therapy - Insight Matters

How to get the most out of your online session?

To make sure you get the most out of your sessions and to help your therapist do their job, there are some optimal conditions you need to bear in mind. The prevailing message when it comes to online counselling is to try your best to make your online session as close to a face to face session as possible. You can:

Ensure you have a fast and reliable internet connection
Use a laptop instead of a phone for comfort, stop notifications so you won’t be disturbed
Try to recreate the same sense of privacy and confidentiality you would experience in a therapy room – if you are not alone at home, give strict instructions not to disturb you!
Put your phone away
Give yourself plenty of time to be ready so you can get into the zone
For continuity, pick the same day and time on a weekly basis
Try to have the same quiet and safe space, with a comfortable chair, tissues, water
Check the temperature of the room is comfortable for you
For added privacy use headphones
