Several studies from around the world, suggest that online therapy is just as effective as face-to-face work for clients, especially longer-term 🔍
More recent research, published in the Journal of Affective Disorders in March 2020, focused on the differences in quality of interactions between face to face and telephone psychotherapy.
It found there was little difference in terms of how effective the therapeutic relationship was, how much clients disclosed or levels of empathy, attentiveness and participation.
Online therapy is also working well for therapists themselves in a way that was previously unthinkable.
Ofcourse, there are perks of in-person counselling but after considering their needs and preferences, individuals should make an informed decision about the type of counselling that is best for them.
