Is Online Therapy Effective?
What Does Altitude Counseling's Process Look Like?
-
Email, text, or call our office - One of our friendly staff members will answer your call. You will be sent a brief consultation form to fill out. This will help us get to know you by asking questions to find out what your current needs are and what your goals for counseling may be. Though many individuals are nervous to call the office, research shows that when people take that first step and actually schedule an initial therapy session, they immediately experience a 10% improvement in their emotional state. The fact that help and hope are on the way, brings a big sense of relief to many people. Once we gather basic information, we will help you determine which therapist will be the best fit for you. Once we determine who you will work with, we will set a time and date for your first appointment.
-
Learn more about us - Once your counseling session has been scheduled, you will receive a link to fill out the new client paperwork. This paperwork can all be filled out electronically and submitted back to us through your client portal. You do not have to print a thing! The paperwork will also contain the web address link to your virtual session, so you will know exactly how to access your session when it is time. If you have any issues accessing your paperwork, you can call our office, and we are happy to walk you through the process over the phone.
-
Begin your session - At the scheduled time for your appointment, you will click the web address link from your email/text reminder. You will be asked to give your name and allow the program to access your mic and camera. You simply follow those prompts. This will take you to your session where your therapist will be there to meet you. The primary virtual platform that we use for sessions is both HIPPA compliant and secure, so you can be put at ease that your session is completely confidential. If you have any trouble accessing your session or have any technical issues logging into it, you will call your therapist directly at the number provided for you in your reminder. Your therapist will help you troubleshoot.
-
Complete your therapy session - After meeting your therapist in the online session room, you will finish out your initial counseling session. The first counseling session, or intake session, will be a time for you and your therapist to get to know each other and discuss the issues that you are facing, as well as your goals for therapy. Our clients tell us that they usually leave their first session feeling both excited and hopeful about their counseling journey and the progress that they will make.
-
Schedule your next appointment -At the end of your therapy session, you and your therapist will discuss a consistent meeting time for your following appointments.
