There are times in our lives that many of us can use support from therapy. Whether experiencing family conflict, recovering from relationship challenges, or seeking career counseling in professional life, therapy offers tools we can use to improve communication skills, manage stress, and facilitate personal growth. 

When it comes to finding a therapist, Johns Creek, GA, may offer more variety than surrounding rural areas, but finding the right provider can be challenging, even in metro areas. Counseling services can range from postpartum counseling for perinatal depression to solution-based therapy for personal and professional goal setting. The type of therapy that you need may not necessarily be accessible or available to you in-person. This is where online therapy can help. 

BetterHelp is an online therapy platform that offers access to Johns Creeks-area therapists with expertise in a variety of approaches, and with experience working with diverse populations. That way whether you are looking for treatment for mood disorders, or support for addiction, you can find just what you need. Simply fill out an online questionnaire and BetterHelp will match you with a therapist that meets your individual needs. And because therapeutic alliance can be essential to success, if you need to change therapists you can do so at no additional cost. 

Online therapy can also offer convenience and accessibility. Many busy professionals enjoy the ease of fitting online sessions into their schedule. Others appreciate that they can attend sessions from the comfort of their own home. Some people, for example someone experiencing a severe anxiety disorder, can find it difficult to walk into a therapist's office. Online therapy allows you to meet with a therapist through video chat, phone, or text messaging options. 

Therapy can be beneficial to almost anyone, individuals and families alike.

Therapy offers reflection and redefines what is possible in your life. For nearly two decades I have been in position to see a number of individuals and families take advantage of the opportunity that therapy provides to create functional responses to the ups and downs of being alive. The therapeutic relationship is sacred to me because it is through the client-therapist connection that the mirror of self-awareness becomes clear. It is not unusual for each member of the relationship to have their life touched and changed for the better. I see it as an honor and privilege whenever someone invites me into their life and their private thoughts. It is not our training or our education that makes us effective supporters of self-healing as much as it is our ability to create an environment of trust, honesty, and mutual understanding. Building this relationship and giving individuals the space to make decisions that support their emotional goals has been my area of expertise for quite some time. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, family issues, existential angst, and even spiritual crisis, the therapeutic relationship can work in your favor.
