Online therapy provides you with a choice of not only what therapist you see but also where you would like to see your therapist. Although using the internet as way to conduct counselling may have been seen as unconventional a few years ago technology and the Internet are now a significant aspect of our lives. We engage in many of our closest relationships online via social media and also conduct our business online. Now we can engage in the therapeutic relationships online too.

Online therapy can be a convenient alternative to face to face therapy for anyone who would prefer to access their support on-line in the comfort of their own home or just choose to remain anonymous. It is also very well suited to people who experience mobility problems or live in more rural areas where accessing a counsellor can prove difficult. Additionally, it can provide an opportunity for counselling for those who work unsociable hours, have childcare issues or support someone with a disability.

Online counselling can help with the majority of issues that face to face counselling can however there are some instances where it would not be suitable form of therapy. Once we have made contact and explored what your issues are I will inform you if I believe it would be detrimental to us both to continue. I will endeavour to signpost you to more appropriate organisations to help you with your problems.

Some of the issues I work with on-line are stress, depression, bereavement, bullying anxiety, abuse, domestic violence, low self esteem, low self confidence , sexuality although this list is not exhaustive.
