Five Benefits of Online Therapy
Online therapy has become an increasingly popular choice for people looking for therapy options. In fact, Compassionate Counseling St. Louis offers online therapy Missouri wide for kids, teens and parents, but you may be wondering what the benefits could be for you or your child. Today we are going to share with you five benefits that we see from online therapy at Compassionate Counseling St. Louis.
Convenience and Flexibility
Our lives can be really busy, but we don’t want that to be a reason that we put off getting help. Online therapy offers you the chance to be more flexible with your schedule.
Online therapy means that your child can meet with an anxiety expert at Compassionate Counseling St. Louis during a study hall without having to leave school. Online therapy also means that parent coaching is an option on your lunch break!
Parent Coaching on Your Schedule
Whether it’s anxiety or anger, our expert parenting coaches are ready to help you build your own parenting toolkit.
Consistency
Staying consistent in therapy is so important to staying on track to meet your goals, but sometimes it can be hard to get to the office for a number of reasons.
You might wake up with a cold, the weather might make driving to the office a challenge or you may be getting ready to move a little farther away from the office. Online therapy lets you and your child keep your appointments even when you aren’t sitting in the office with your therapist.
Comfort

Online therapy means that you can choose a comfortable place to have your meeting with your therapist. This means that if it is cold outside and you want to keep your fuzzy socks on during your appointment, you can!
You get to choose a quiet and private space to meet with your therapist and get the same benefits as being in-person. You can sit on your couch, at your kitchen table or even on your porch. And your dog or cat might even curl up next to you while you work on building your new skills!
Accessible
Online therapy means that even if you aren’t within driving distance of our office, you can still meet with one of the anxiety experts at Compassionate Counseling St. Louis! Compassionate Counseling St. Louis offers online therapy Missouri wide, which means that as long as you are in Missouri, you can work with us!
Online therapy can be really great for teens who are preparing to go to college. Online therapy means that our college-bound clients can continue working with their therapist as they transition to college as long as they are in college in Missouri!
Being in Your Space
Sometimes some of our biggest anxiety triggers are at school or home. Online therapy means that you can bring your therapist into your space so you can work the skills needed most at home or at school.
Your child may be experiencing anxiety at school or your college student may be struggling with perfectionism while away from home. Meeting with our therapists for online therapy gives the therapist an opportunity to work on skill building while the stressors are happening.
