  <h2 class="contentTitle">What Makes Online Therapy Different Than In-Person Therapy?</h2>
  <div class="blockInnerContent" ><div class="maxWidth--content"><p>The main difference between online and in-person therapy is the location. That being said, there are a few other key components that differ as well:</p>

    <ul><li>In-person therapy usually costs more because the therapist has overhead costs. Those overhead costs include things like office rent and utilities. Online therapy can be cheaper because the therapist doesn’t have these same costs.</li><li>In-person therapy can be more inconvenient because you have to travel to the therapist's office for the appointment and then home after. Online therapy might be more convenient for you because you can have sessions at better times like in the middle of the day or at night. Another bonus of online therapy is that there usually are no geographical restrictions, but this does depend on where you live.</li><li>Another benefit of in-person therapy is that it can feel more “official” than online therapy because it takes place in an actual office. Online therapy might feel more informal because it can happen anywhere you are like in your bedroom or at the park.</li><li>In-person therapy can also be more intimate because you are in the same room as your therapist. However, online therapy might feel less intimate because you’re not face-to-face with your therapist.</li><li>Both online and in-person therapy have their own advantages. At Texas Online Counseling, we are here for all of your online counseling needs because we know that being able to stay within the safe and comfortable environment of your home is important and it allows you lots of flexibility while still getting the help you need.</li></ul>

  <div class="blockInnerContent" ><p><strong>Is Online Therapy Right For Me?</strong></p><p>Many people think that online therapy (or therapy in general) won’t help them. The reality is that most people will greatly benefit from talking to a therapist online. But in case you’re still on the fence, here are a few examples of when online therapy is your best option.</p><p><strong>If It Helps With Your Mental Health Status And/Or Mental Illness.</strong></p><p>If anxiety or depression has you unable to leave your house, online counseling is a much better option than skipping out on your session altogether. If you’re in the middle of a panic attack, driving to get to an appointment should be the last thing on your mind. For anyone who struggles with the idea of going into a therapist’s office, online therapy is a great solution. It’s not taking the easy way out or shorting you on your progress — it’s one of the many reasons why online counseling is more effective than in-person sessions.</p><p><strong>If You’re Struggling To Connect With A Therapist In Your Area.</strong></p><p>As we mentioned earlier, Texas is enormous. Our online therapists work with countless people, solely because it’s more convenient than having to drive hours and hours to get to the nearest counselor. You shouldn’t have to sacrifice a meaningful connection with a therapist — not to mention, a connection that helps you grow — simply because there’s no one close to you.</p><p>Similarly, some therapists in some areas reflect the values of their location. If you’re worried that the therapy options (if any) in your area are not going to best serve you, online therapy is a great solution.</p><p><strong>If You’re Busy.</strong></p><p>To be honest, who isn’t busy? It can be quite the challenge to fit another appointment onto your schedule, but this becomes so much easier when you can meet with someone in your home. While some people might enjoy getting to go see someone in person, you can meet with an online Texas therapist wherever there’s service and you feel comfortable. Your office after hours, a private room at a library, the comfort of your living room — the flexibility of online therapy is a definite advantage.</p><p><strong>If You Need Help On Location.</strong></p><p>Want to keep up with your therapist while you’re on vacation? Worried about losing your cool when spending time with your extended family? Nervous that you’ll have an anxiety attack at the airport? Talking to a therapist online means it’s so much easier to connect and feel supported and in control, even when you’re not in the same location as your therapist. It’s a huge convenience that many people have greatly appreciated, and for good reason!</p><p><strong>If You Want To Get Better.</strong></p><p>Talking to a therapist online is proven to make a difference. Life is tough and full of stressors. Everyone deserves to live a life that brings them happiness and joy, and when working through issues with a therapist online, this becomes all the more attainable. Your online therapist is there to help you feel better and help get back to the things that will help bring you happiness and joy.</p><p>Texas Online Counseling is your number one choice for online therapy.  We have been working with patients for years and have the experience to help you with your concerns and achieve your goals with quality therapy sessions. Reach out to us to try it firsthand, and set up your consultation with <a href="<?php echo $base_url;?>staff">our online therapists</a> today. We look forward to hearing from you, and most importantly, we look forward to helping you get to where you want to be. When it comes to therapy at Texas Online Counseling, we use attachment theories and styles as our main approach. We also use a combination of Gestalt and solution-focused theories to better help you. We believe in using these theories as they are implemented within all of the support you are given. Our therapists will help you move forward and focus on the present so you can continue to grow and get better. Your treatment will include solutions and tools for you to use even outside therapy or even when you have completed your desired amount of treatment. These will be beneficial both inside and outside of therapy so you can continue to grow and continue your normal life outside of treatment. If you’re suffering from anxiety, <a href="<?php echo $base_url;?>depression-therapy">depression</a>, <a href="<?php echo $base_url;?>anger-management">anger issues</a>, or are simply needing to talk, we’re here to help. Our team has experience with a variety of issues and you can trust that we will help provide you with the support and help you need.
