Benefits and Limitations of Telehealth (Online) Counseling

As with most things, Telehealth (online) counseling has its benefits and limitations. Here are some things to consider.

BENEFITS:

  • no commuting

  • no waiting rooms

  • no need to leave your home

  • counseling from a place you are comfortable

  • convenience

  • the ability to contact your counselor between appointments

  • avoid any stigma you may feel

LIMITATIONS:

  • technical difficulties

  • limited visual and verbal cues that can affect the relationship and understanding of information

  • possible lack of confidentiality due to your environment

  • you must be present in the state your counselor is licensed

  • not appropriate for all mental illnesses

I take my responsibility seriously to make sure my counseling practices are HIPAA compliant. Although I do my best to secure confidentiality on my end, I cannot guarantee that on your end. Please be sure to be in a location where you are safe and have privacy. This may include using private WIFI, having your account and device on passcode, etc.
