The Benefits of E-Counselling

While face-to-face counselling is the most conventional form of counselling, e-counselling nowadays is being utilised increasingly more by clients all over the world with studies showing that e-counselling is just as effective as conventional face-to-face counselling (The Lancet, 2009).

So why use e-counselling instead of conventional counselling? There are a few aspects on why it might be a better fit for you.

​E-counselling offers the same level of therapy and confidentiality as face-to-face counselling, but it also offers more accessibility and flexibility.

Accessibility: All you need for your therapy session is a devise connected to the internet and a quiet room and you are good to go! There is no need to incur additional costs such as taxis or get wet in the rain - you can have your counselling session wherever you are without having to go out.

Convenience: E-counselling means that you can get high quality counselling services from the comfort of your own home. This is particularly convenient for people such as parents who don’t have childcare, individuals who travel frequently for work or individuals who are for some reason housebound.

Time saving: This also means that e-counsellors have more availability at later times when you finish work and it reduces the travel time from work/home to therapy, helping you be more flexible with your own activities and having more time for them.

Privacy: If you worry about bumping into someone you know at the practice e-counselling is the way to go. You can do it at home in total privacy.

If you are considering counselling, think about the benefits of e-counselling and whether this is the right form of counselling for you.
