Tired of the same old Therapy and Coaching Styles? 

Do you feel like an old record stuck in well-worn grooves, but not really changing, growing or getting better?
 
In early 2019, many people still held tight to the belief that online therapy should not replace in-office therapy. Touchstone Therapy has been exclusively online since 2018, before covid. 
Since the epidemic, however, many have tried using their phones and computers to get relief from mental health suffering and found that the level of connection they are able to make with their therapists made in-office therapy an option, not a necessity. Some of the most common benefits associated with Online Therapy are:
 

• Choose Your Therapist/Life Coach From Anywhere: With online counseling, you no longer need to seek help limited to your local area so you have many more professionals to choose from.  At Touchstone Therapy Online (TTO)  I firmly believe that the relationship between the client and their therapist is crucial, essential & critical for healing change to occur. In fact, without this strong, healthy relationship, therapy will be a waste of everyone's time, energy and money.

• Efficiency: Most of us have busy schedules whether we are working full-time or not, and chances are you have very little personal time set aside. With online therapy, you can receive help on your computer at home or anywhere you can get online access.  Note: I do not provide therapy sessions while people are driving or distracted.  Again, it would be a waste of everyone’s time, etc.

• Communication Channels: Gone are the days of having to set pre-arranged appointments and then receiving therapy in person. Online therapy enables you to text, email, or phone your concerns at any time.  I will get back to you as quickly as possible and set an appointment if necessary.

• Mental Health Stigma: Even in today's world, some people don’t set therapy appointments due to the stigma still surrounding mental health therapy. In fact, some people who set in-office appointments won’t show up for their session due to the fear of being seen entering an office needing help. With online therapy, that stigma is gone.

• Privacy/Confidentiality: Using online therapy provides users with complete privacy and confidentiality. Therapists are bound by strict local and federal laws, as is the case with Touchstone Therapy Online.  Your therapy sessions are protected by HIPAA. 

• Pricing: Did you know that it can cost $200+ for one therapy session in-office and sometimes online.  So even if you are covered by premium insurance, the co-pay on each session can be as high as $90. If you’re going in to therapy once a week, that’s $360 - $800 per month.  At Touchstone Therapy Online I do not take insurance because, frankly, it is a paperwork drill I choose not to engage in anymore.  And I don't pay to hire this work out either.  I would rather focus directly on my client's needs and issues.  Therefore, my costs are $75.00 and $130.00 for couples.  Groups vary.  Click on the Free Consultation button to contact me directly.
