Online vs In Person Therapy
As a Trans or Queer person, the question of how to find a therapist can be a complex task. There are so many considerations we must walk through. One of these is whether to venture out of our homes, or to keep things online. Which one is right for you? Here is a list of pros and cons to help you decide.
The pros of virtual/online therapy:
If you're too far away from our practice
We can see folks in PA, NJ, DE and NY, and many more states. That means we are available to see you from the comfort of your home.
Online offers anonymity
If you are not Out, or if you’re worried about being in public as your authentic self, or if you’re just not feeling up for being around people, a virtual therapy session is your best option.
Not having to travel can be a relief
If you’re a busy parent or professional, yet another trip can become a big burden on your schedule. Therapy should be a place where you can focus your energy on taking care of yourself. If that means skipping yet another car ride, then online therapy might be for you.
