ONLINE THERAPY IN ARKANSAS

Fit therapy into your busy life. Access counseling from your own home with all of the privacy and security without the commute and the wait.

DRIVING TO SEE A THERAPIST CAN BE A HASSLE.

You have to drive to the office, sit around in a waiting room, have your session, then commute to get on with your day. And while therapy is absolutely worth the time you put into it, you want something that fits your busy schedule.

This can be an even bigger headache if the therapist you want to see lives far away. They might be the only one that specializes in your unique problems like sexuality, questioning your gender, or working with men’s issues. Or perhaps you’ve called around and found the therapist you really want to work with because they just really get you - but you can’t realistically drive to their office!

This is added problem if you live in a small town in Arkansas where you may not have anyone nearby who you can trust with your problems and secrets because it’s a small community.

Online therapy can be a great alternative to help.

With online therapy, you simply use your computer or smartphone to log into a secure website that lets you talk live with a therapist from the comfort of your own home, office, car, or even sitting in the fresh air on your back porch. You can attend a session any place that gives you the safety and privacy to talk as freely as you would in a face-to-face session.

Research done over the past decade and during the COVID-19 pandemic consistently shows that telehealth provides effective, quality care comparable to in-person sessions.

Imagine having all of the support of a therapist in a way that fits in with your day!

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ONLINE COUNSELING

  • Online therapy, sometimes called "telehealth," is a convenient option for doing therapy in the comfort of your own home. It also allows us to work together if you are elsewhere in the state of Arkansas, such as a small town where there aren't any therapists or anyone you can trust with your problems.

    Online therapy works just like it would in an office. We'll talk about the problems you're experiencing, the changes you'd like to make, the outcomes you want to work toward, and develop a plan for helping you get there. Whether face to face or online, my hope for you is the same - to not just feel better after a session but create lasting change to live better!

    The platform I use, SimplePractice, also allows me to share my screen with you if we do any work where it is helpful to call things up online or view something I may lay out using a document camera to share books, pictures, carts, and such.

  • While online therapy is convenient, secure, and effective, there are a few things you need to get started.

    • First, you'll need a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a webcam (desktop or laptop) with a microphone.

    • You'll need access to a reliable Internet connection. This may be wired, wifi, or cellular. Please make sure it provides a good connection since poor reception can affect the flow of sessions.

    • A private place where you know you can talk freely without interruption.

    • Anything you might like to make your session more comfortable such as water, tea, snacks, blankets, and pets.

  • Besides having a stable Internet connection, the technology, and the space, it works well to come to any therapy session with ideas about what you want to talk about that day. Your therapist will generally have something they will focus on if you don't have something specific in mind, but this is your time and space to focus on whatever you feel will be most helpful to your counseling goals.

    Please make sure that your space is secure and private. Noisy pets and kids or other family members interrupting your session can take away from the time you're paying for to focus on you. You may want to put a "Do Not Disturb" sign on your door when you are in a session.

  • Of course not. I want to work with your circumstances as best we can, but sometimes life happens. We can still meet even if you have to deal with other things at the time, as long as you understand that it can make the session less effective. I want to work with your situation but also make sure you feel like you're getting the support you need in the time that you're paying for - and distracting circumstances can affect that.

  • The rate for a 50-minute online counseling session is the same as if we were meeting in a regular office.

  • No, you will be sent a different link each time when you get an appointment reminder by text or email. You will use the most recent link for your current session.
