Driving to the therapist’s office is a challenge.
Suppose you are a busy professional or taking demanding classes at the university. In that case, your daily life is full of enough activities, so there is no space in your schedule for visits to a therapist’s office.
Driving through town and sitting in traffic during your busy day is not appealing. As soon as your day is over, you want to get home as fast as possible, change your clothes, and relax.
You do not want to add therapy to your to-do list, especially if your partner expects you at home or if you have kids.
There is another option – therapy online.
You can now get the help you need from the comfort of your home or office.
As a licensed psychologist in Michigan, I offer online therapy through a secure HIPPA-compliant platform. We can work together if you live anywhere in the Mitten State or the UP.
Seeking online therapy means you don’t need to worry about getting ready to leave home, getting dressed during the cold Michigan winter, or driving in the snow.
Working online is a convenient and relaxed option.
Nothing is lost while working online.

During the pandemic, I took a virtual class with a woman who resides in another country and had doubts about the online experience myself. While participating in those online meetings, I did not experience physical distance as a barrier.
There were occasional Internet glitches that got in the way, but I received what I needed from the class as if I was sharing the physical space with my instructor. Also, I observed the other participants as they enjoyed the company of their beloved pets.
For online sessions to work, you must be in a place where you can close the door and be uninterrupted. Also, you want to ensure privacy, so no one can hear what you discuss in therapy. Finally, you want to make sure that you have a strong Internet connection.
