Online Therapy

What is Online Therapy?

The psychological consultation by Skype allows access to psychological therapy, from the comfort of home, with the same quality of a face-to-face therapy.

In my years of doing this type of therapy via Skype, I have found that has the same effectiveness as the therapy I do in my face consultation, and also facilitates access to psychological assistance to persons who, under certain circumstances, they can't go in person to consult to receive the treatment they need.

Thanks to technology, you can access quality online psychological care from anywhere in the world and from your own home through video calls, either through a computer or a mobile phone.

Since the pandemic, this service has increased exponentially, so as therapists we have gained experience with online psychology, since more and more people use this method due to all the advantages it offers them; And although I as director of the cabinet was not very supportive, I have to say that more and more I value its efficiency and effectiveness, especially in those cases of people who do not have the possibility of consulting either for time or for prevention in a time of uncertainty.

In online therapy we follow the same procedure as in face-to-face therapy.

At first we carry out an initial evaluation and identify the problem to define areas for improvement.

In a second phase of online therapy, we establish the therapy goals together with you and then we implement the strategies to achieve the proposed goals.

Finally, the on-line monitoring sessions are carried out to verify that the changes you have achieved are stable.

For those people who travel a lot and find it difficult to go to face-to-face sessions, change residence when they already have a link with their psychologist, have little time and want to save time traveling, suffer a physical problem that limits their mobility, you want Go to a quality and innovative service that your community does not have, online therapy is a good alternative to face-to-face therapy.

Although undoubtedly being face to face is always closer and more intimate, it is evident that some people to begin that intimacy can be overwhelming and online therapy is also in such cases a good starting point. There are people who have a greater sense of privacy and security from their own home than going to a psychology center.

Our growing experience in online sessions shows us that strong and stable therapeutic bonds can be created through video calls. There are numerous scientific studies carried out around the world that support the effectiveness of online psychology

This type of therapy is suitable for people who:

The psychology office Vila de Paz offers you.

Individual psychological consultation by videoconference for those who for reasons of displacement can not attend the consultation or along their psychological treatment change of residence and can not keep going in person.

Psychological therapy by Skype presents a great flexibility of schedules, so that it is compatible with work or other activities of daily life. Skype therapy is cheaper, reducing costs (rent, furniture ...) that expensive face-to-face therapy. This form of therapy despite my initial reluctance in those people who started the therapy in person and then go to another country or city, gives the possibility to continue with the same therapist.

Currently two psychologists from our cabinet perform this modality with several people from abroad.
