We provide virtual therapy to clients anywhere in Ontario
Online therapy, also known as teletherapy or online counseling, is a way to provide mental health support through digital platforms. It allows you to access individual or couples therapy services remotely, and is a great alternative to in-person visits.
How does online therapy work?
At Feel Your Way Therapy we offer online therapy sessions through Jane, a single platform that allows us to schedule appointments, manage billing and receipts and have online video appointments.
Jane video conferencing is similar to Zoom, Skype or Teams, but is private, secure, and complies with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
Before each of your online appointments, you will receive a confirmation email that will include a secure link you can use to access your appointment. You can use a computer, a tablet or a smartphone. While mobile internet networks are usually enough, we recommend having a Wi-Fi or wired connection to make sure you have the best experience.
If an internet connection is not available at the time of your appointment, we can always have an appointment over the phone.
Benefits of online therapy
While after years of pandemic we often feel that there is too much online communication in our lives, we find that online therapy is a valuable way to get the support for the challenges you are going through with the added benefit of flexibility and convenience.
The feedback we receive from our clients is consistent with the research findings, showing that online therapy is just as effective as in-person therapy, and has the following benefits:
- Unparalleled flexibility in scheduling sessions. You can choose appointment times that align with you daily routine, making it easier to incorporate therapy into your busy life.
- No commuting. You can save time and energy by not having to travel to our office.
- Comfort of home. You can be in your familiar environment, feeling more safe and comfortable during sessions.
- Accessibility. You can connect with our therapists from any point in Ontario without the need to travel long distances to receive the support you need.
