FAQS ABOUT ONLINE COUNSELING
-
What is online therapy?
Teletherapy, also known as online therapy, video therapy, or online therapy, is when a therapist or counselor provides psychological treatment and support through online methods. The addition of video-based mental health services has been a recent effort to make treatment accessible through remote care.
At the Williamsburg Therapy Group, we use secure two-way video conferencing. We believe that live sessions are among the best methods to make therapy more convenient while forming a supportive relationship with your provider.
The type of treatment you receive from our professional counselors through teletherapy works the same way as in-person appointments. The only difference is that online therapy gives us the flexibility and ease of fitting our services into your schedule.

How does online counseling work?
Online counseling at Williamsburg Therapy Group is provided by the same doctoral-level providers who provide in-person therapy at our practice. When you book an appointment, you and your provider will use a secure two-way video conference call for your session.
We recommend planning to be in a private space for your teletherapy appointment. This will allow you to feel comfortable talking to your virtual therapist about private information and mental health concerns.
