Healing at a Distance: How Telehealth Therapy Improves Lives

Telehealth therapy is a game changer for us as we live in a high-tech fast-paced world.  All of the increase in technology has come with pros and cons. Some of the increase in the use of social media, for example, is known to have a negative impact on our mental health. Thankfully, the increase in accessibility also comes with some amazing benefits. One of which is increased accessibility of therapy via telehealth. This approach to mental health care is not only a convenience. It offers hope and support to millions of individuals worldwide.

What is Telehealth Therapy?

What is telehealth therapy, and how does it work? Telehealth therapy involves the delivery of mental health services through technology. The most common forms of technology used for telehealth are video and telephone. Through these channels, you can connect with a therapist from the comfort of your own home. Decreasing the need for travel, wait times, and geographical limitations.

Take a minute to imagine being in your favorite chair, wrapped in a blanket, drinking your favorite drink. You log into your computer or even use your phone to access the HIPPA secure site where you meet your therapist. Then you work through the challenges and frustrations going on in your life in the safety of your own home. You get support, and tools, and get at the root causes of your pain without having to drive to a therapist’s office.  

Telehealth Therapy is Convenient

Although convenience is a huge benefit to telehealth, it is much more than a convenient alternative to traditional in-person therapy.  For those living in rural areas, those who have transportation issues, and those whose lives are too busy to drive to one more appointment, teletherapy opens up the door to needed help and support.  

Telehealth Breaks Down Barriers of Stigma or Shame

Teletherapy also breaks down barriers of stigma or shame that can prevent some people from seeking help. Because people can be in a familiar and comfortable environment, this helps telehealth therapy create a safe and non-judgmental space. Where individuals can open up and explore their innermost thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. It fosters a sense of connectedness. Breaking down barriers of loneliness and isolation. Through telehealth therapy, you can access a listening ear and compassionate presence to those who need support.

Challenges of Telehealth Therapy

Like all forms of therapy, there can be some challenges that arise. For example, their technical glitches, privacy concerns, and limitations in non-verbal communication can sometimes pose obstacles to effective therapy. It is important for you to have privacy when you are in a telehealth session. So if this is not something you have then in-person therapy may be a better choice for you. If you have a stable internet connection and privacy then teletherapy will work for you.
