As their parent, you’re wondering what the next step is. Things cannot continue as they are. You’ve decided that something needs to change. It’s time to reach out.

Why online therapy sessions?
You may already know that it’s time for your child to begin therapy. But, you’re concerned about your family’s ability to make it happen. There are sports practices, recitals, homework, and playdates. To be honest, you’re surprised that you're keeping it together as it is. How would you add your kiddo’s hour-long therapy session to your already packed schedule?
The world moved everything online in 2020
In turn, our therapy practice started using video technology for online therapy sessions. During the transition to online therapy, we realized how vital this service is. Scheduling a one-hour session during the week is so much simpler when it’s online versus in-person. When your child sees an online therapist, you no longer have to make the commute to the counseling office. You’d be surprised how much extra time this gives your family!

While your child speaks with their online therapist, you can cook, do laundry, or even take a moment for yourself. This is a wonderful opportunity for younger kids along with teenagers. And parents appreciate it, too.
Online therapy for kids in Pennsylvania
You may have a few little ones running around. Allowing your child in therapy to meet with their therapist online means you can give attention to your other babies at the same time. But, if a parent is needed in a session, you can hop on the call for the time needed. Then, you can get back to your other responsibilities. This can help your child feel listened to and also respected. Their needs are being heard, and they have the space to talk on their own with their online therapist.
Online therapy for teens in Pennsylvania
Teens love online therapy too! Meeting online with a therapist can help teens exercise their independence. They get to schedule online therapy when it works with their other obligations. Additionally, not having to drive to the office can give teenagers a sense of anonymity. They won’t see peers or community members in the waiting room, as they might if they attended in-person. Online therapy for teens can help them feel like they have a say in their therapeutic work.
Plus, teenagers often enjoy the ability to meet with their therapist from the comfort of home. They may meet with their online therapist from their bedroom with their pet cuddled up next to them. This can be very comforting when processing tough feelings and experiences. Trying online therapy for teens can show your teenager that you see them struggling and want to give them freedom while seeking support.
