Online appointments provide a flexible way to access assessment or therapy from your own home, or from another location that feels suitable and private for you.

Some people wonder whether online therapy is as effective as meeting in person. Research suggests that online therapy can be just as effective for many people, and the most important factor is often finding an approach to therapy that feels right for you.

Some people value the convenience and flexibility of online appointments, while others prefer the experience of meeting in person.

To get the most from online therapy, it is helpful to have access to a reliable device, such as a laptop or computer. These are generally preferable to mobile phones, as sessions may involve sharing visual information or resources. A stable internet connection and a suitable power supply will also help to ensure that sessions run smoothly.

It is important to have a quiet, private space where you feel comfortable talking openly and where you are unlikely to be overheard or interrupted. This helps to protect your confidentiality and create a space where you can focus on your assessment or therapy.

If you decide to begin an online assessment or therapy, we can discuss any practical arrangements beforehand and think together about how to make sure you have a private, comfortable space and everything you need for your sessions.
