In-Person vs. Online Therapy in Wakefield: Which Option Fits Your Life Best?
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, online therapy sessions were few and far between - generally not covered by insurance and rarely considered by clinicians. When the pandemic hit, however, online visits became a necessity and have evolved tremendously since.
Along with many colleagues, I was skeptical and concerned that remote therapy would be prohibitively impersonal and less effective - and sheesh, we were so wrong! While I can’t say that phone-only therapy was optimal as the sole method for everyone, telehealth has proven to have many benefits. At the same time, in-person therapy is still holding its ground as an excellent way to meet. Research also shows that both formats are effective (and I was fortunate to contribute to an early study on this with colleagues at Mass General in 2020!).
I truly feel that both online and in-person therapy have their place, depending on the individual and the circumstances, which is why I offer both in my practice. Keep reading to explore what to consider when choosing between online versus in-person therapy.
