If nothing else, putting off therapy can sometimes mean living in a state of stress and pain for days, weeks, months and years. But what if you’re having some major problems, or your relationship is in a very vulnerable state? Getting to therapy can mean the difference between a strong, healthy relationship or a slippery slope to breaking up. It’s no big deal if it stops you for this week. Obviously setting up an in office therapy session is going to be out of the question. Let’s say one of you works in downtown Chicago and the other is traveling to Peoria for work. (If you’re new to this site, I want to reiterate that I do not specifically use Skype for online counseling, but instead I use a HIPAA compliant platform called because it allows me to meet federal privacy and confidentiality guidelines.) Here’s An Example The headaches of getting time off, babysitters, juggling schedules and travel for two people who are at two different jobs, or one at home, is much bigger than one person figuring out how to carve out an hour here and there. People often put off or don’t even go to couples counseling because of that. Why? For one major reason: it’s way harder to coordinate travel and schedules for two people than it is for one. What not everyone realizes, though, is that it can also be even more helpful for couples than for individuals. Sometimes referred to as Skype therapy or online counseling, distance counseling offers some pretty big benefits that are catching on. In-office sessions are still the norm, but many people are starting to embrace the convenience of telemental health.
It’s not as uncommon as it once was for people to do counseling over the Internet or by phone.
