Some
people call it e-counselling or e-therapy. This way, you can get
professional counselling without going to the counsellor's office a face
to face session. Your therapy or coaching sessions are are
carried out online either in a private chatroom, on the telephone or or
by exchanging emails. Each system has it's benefits and
attractions, as we can see here:
Email.
-
You can
send your emails and read our replies when you wish.
-
You're
not tied to a fixed schedule
-
You can
pick up your emails wherever you are
-
Email
gives you time to consider your feelings and needs without having to
rush to commit yourself
-
You can
have a written record of all of your therapy when you want it
-
You can
save your emails to a memory stick, making them private and
portable.
Telephone.
-
It can provide a greater
feeling of rapport between therapist and client
-
You can perhaps get a
better 'feel' for your therapist because you can hear the tones and
inflections of his speech
-
For the same reason,
your therapist can sometimes pick up on what is NOT being said just
by listening to you.
-
You can schedule times
which are convenient
-
You don't have to be
beside your computer to have telephone therapy
-
If you use Skype, the
call costs nothing
-
If you arrange for us to
call you, again the call costs nothing
-
Using your own landline
to call us, the call is at local rate if you are in London or
national rate if you are outside London
Live Chat.
-
Some
people feel at first that it is more anonymous, or 'safer' than the
telephone
-
You can schedule times
which are convenient
-
There
are no call costs at any time
