REMOTE THERAPY
A lot of people would think that online psychotherapy is not as effective as face-to-face therapy, however, numerous studies have concluded that online therapy is just as effective as face-to-face therapy, if not MORE effective. Online talk therapy works very well psychoanalytically and develops the therapeutic relationship, deepening the progress made to your inner world.
Based in Exeter my online therapy sessions, I offer both cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy.
Cognitive behavioural therapy works on how your thoughts, behaviours and feelings influence each other, whereas dialectical behaviour therapy focuses on more emotional and social aspects of people's lives, exploring their experiences and how to deal with challenges or difficulties in their lives.
My online therapy sessions are weekly and last 50 minutes. I am able to provide both one-to-one remote talk therapy sessions as well as online couple counselling and relationship therapy. If you require any of my remote counselling services, including couples therapy, relationship therapy and psychotherapy, then please don't hesitate to give me a call on 07802497618 or contact me via my website.

Online counselling guideline
Online counselling is the future. There’s no two ways about it – the digital age is here and it’s slowly but surely disrupting industries that have been operating in the same way for centuries. Education is shifting towards online platforms, ecommerce grows year on year, and we are beginning to see shifts in therapy too.
Getting started in the world of online counselling can be a confusing and worry-ridden process. Key questions about how to begin, confidentiality, and whether it’s worth the effort rear their head again and again.

- Enables people in remote areas, and those who are disabled or housebound to access service
- It is usually fairly affordable and convenient. A Computer with a good Internet connection is all it takes to get online and begin your work. Typically, this is available from home.
- Online counselling may also be effective in eliminating social stigma associated with receiving therapy. Online counselling allows access to such service in private without having to visit the counselling centre. It may allow the client to feel less stigmatised without having to be seen by others in the waiting room, the administrative staff or any other person.
Disadvantages:
- There are concerns around confidentiality, privacy and unreliable technology. Or at least no less confidential than face-to-face counselling. Confidentiality is a big issue in counselling, but it’s just as at risk from someone listening in at the door, or a phone being left off the hook, as it is from interceptions from hackers. The internet has come a very long way in its short lifespan, and risk decreases everyday.
- Therapist are not in a position to respond directly to crisis situations.
- The scope of help provided can be limited. Human givens therapists already engaged in remote working report successful delivery such as relaxation, guided visualisation, psycho-education. However, there are specific concerns about the use of some of these skills for online counselling. So, it suggests that it will not always be safe and helpful.
