Online Therapy in Georgia
There’s a reason why so many therapists offer online therapy. It’s effective in treating a wide variety of mental health concerns.
In fact, research shows that online therapy is as effective as in-person therapy.
You are very busy, so prioritizing mental health care or therapy isn’t at the forefront of your mind right now.
Nonetheless, life can be tough. You may find yourself wishing you had support to deal with your challenges. Unfortunately, going to counseling just isn’t workable right now.
It may be due to all the time constraints. After all, taking hours out of your day to travel to and from a therapy session is a big commitment. Or, your job schedule keeps you from attending counseling during normal business hours.
“Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It’s about how you drive, not where you’re going.”
– Noam Shpancer, PhD
You may have considered seeing a therapist. But, you live in a small Georgia town.
There are few therapists in your area that specialize in the concern you’re experiencing. Or, you may have met with a few counselors in the past, but haven’t found someone that you connect with. The good news is, you don’t have to struggle to find a skilled therapist who specializes in your specific mental health concern.
With online therapy, you don't have to take hours out of your day to meet with them. Online therapy brings high-quality services to you in the comfort of your surroundings. Online therapy also eliminates the barriers that prevent many from getting support. Additionally, it is very effective at treating a variety of mental health concerns.
Here Are Some of the Most Notable Benefits of Online Therapy For You to Consider:
Secure and Private
As therapists, we understand that you may worry about others finding out that you’re going to therapy. So, being seen in a waiting room may be stressful for you. But with online therapy, you don’t have to worry about that! You can meet with a therapist in the comfort of your surroundings. No one needs to know you’re seeing a therapist unless you choose to tell them.
At Avalon Psychotherapy, we take our clients' privacy very seriously. We’ve done lots of research and chose to use Zoom as our online therapy platform. It is HIPPA compliant and secure. The discussions we have in sessions and your personal details will stay confidential.
Easy to Use
After the pandemic, we’ve all become accustomed to online meetings and Zoom calls. Our online therapy sessions are no different.
After you establish care with one of our therapists, they will send you a secure Zoom link. This is your link to use for the duration of the time you work with us. All you need is a computer or smart device (a phone or tablet) and a reliable WiFi signal to meet with your therapist.
Convenience
Our counseling center is in the city of Atlanta, GA. So, we’re accustomed to the stress of being stuck in traffic on the freeway. Especially at rush hour. Furthermore, as busy professionals, we understand the pain of dealing with traffic. Taking hours out of your work or school week to see a therapist isn’t doable for a lot of young adults and adults.
But the good news is, with online therapy you don’t have to worry about travel or time limitations. You can meet with one of our therapists at a time that works well within your schedule. This means you can have a session before work, during your lunch hours, or after work. You may travel often, have an unpredictable schedule, or attending college outside of Atlanta. If so, you can still meet with your therapist as long as you’re physically located in the state of Georgia.

Our Approach to Online Therapy in Georgia
Our top priority in counseling is to establish a good relationship with you.
This is essential. It is the foundation upon which therapeutic success is built. To build a good relationship, we must get to know you and the concerns that prompted you to reach out. This means discussing both past and present issues and how they’re impacting your life
Then, we will come up with a plan and use evidence-based treatment approaches such as DBT for example. These will help you deal with the pain of your past and the symptoms you’re experiencing in the present. With this plan in place, you can feel confident moving forward with your life. You can feel prepared with the tools and coping skills to better handle distress when it arises. We want to empower you to live your life to the fullest potential.
