Is Telehealth Effective?

No Less Effective—In-Person or Online, Therapy Works​

It’s natural to wonder if therapy via a screen can truly offer the same results as face-to-face sessions. Rest assured, research has shown that telehealth therapy, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), is just as effective as in-person treatment. In fact, I’ve successfully conducted EMDR with numerous clients via telehealth (all over Australia), helping them process and heal from trauma in the comfort of their own space.

Accessible

Telehealth allows us to work together from a distance while maintaining the same level of connection, trust, and empathy. And with the added benefits of comfort and privacy in your own home, you can feel more at ease as you embark on your healing journey.

Flexible

No matter where you are in Australia, therapy is within reach. Online sessions break down geographical barriers, so you can get the help you need without waiting weeks for an appointment or traveling long distances.

Privacy and Comfort

Enjoy the privacy and comfort of your own space during therapy. Whether you’re at home, in your office, or a quiet place of your choice, you can engage in therapy where you feel safest.

Predictability and Consistency

Life can be unpredictable, but online therapy ensures that you can maintain continuity in your treatment, no matter what’s happening in the world around you. Whether it's a lockdown, a busy work schedule, moving home, or travel, therapy remains accessible.

Before starting online therapy, here’s a checklist to make sure things run smoothly:

  • A reliable internet connection to ensure uninterrupted sessions.
  • A device such as a computer, tablet, or smartphone, along with audio and video capabilities.
  • A quiet, private space where you can speak openly without distractions.
  • Backup communication – Keep your phone handy just in case we need to reconnect.
  • Comfort essentials – Grab a glass of water and tissues to ensure you’re comfortable during our session.
