Online Therapy at Spencer Psychology
In today’s fast-paced world, finding time for self-care and mental health can be challenging. That’s where our online therapy services come in, offering a convenient, effective, exceptionally private and accessible solution for your behavioral health needs.
Why online therapy?
Convenience and Flexibility:
- Online therapy allows you to receive the support you need from the comfort of your own home. No more commuting or waiting rooms—schedule sessions at times that work best for you, whether it’s early morning, late evening, or even during a lunch break. Some of our clients who work out of town even do sessions in their cars from the parking lot at their workplace during their breaks. You must be in Indiana when receiving telehealth services with Spencer Psychology, due to licensure regulations.
Accessibility:
- Our online platform breaks down barriers to mental health care. Whether you live in a remote area, have mobility issues, transportation issues, or simply prefer the privacy of your own space, online therapy makes it easier to access professional help.
Online therapy can be helpful for particular mental health problems like agoraphobia (fear of leaving the home), severe trauma, social phobias and OCD, where being in other people’s spaces can cause discomfort.
Continuity of Care:
- Life can be unpredictable, but your mental health care doesn’t have to be. With online therapy, you can maintain consistent sessions even when traveling (as long as you are traveling in Indiana, where we hold our licenses), or during unforeseen circumstances, ensuring uninterrupted support.
- Many clients also use this mode to switch an appointment from in-person to online when they find they have a sick child who is home for the day, or a work commitment that comes up last minute that makes the travel time to the appointment too tight. We have used online therapy during snow days, car trouble days, or on our clients work-from-home days. Even if it is not your primary modality for services, most of our clients find it very useful to be able to switch to online when other things come up.
Comfort and Privacy
- Many people find it easier to open up and discuss personal issues in a familiar environment. Online therapy provides a safe, private space where you can feel more at ease, leading to more effective and meaningful sessions.
Wide Range of Services
- Most of our service modalities are offered online as well as in-person, including EMDR.
Evidence-Based Approach
- Research shows that online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions for many mental health issues. Our therapists use evidence-based techniques to ensure you receive the highest quality care.
