Someday, when historians are asked about the innovations that changed the landscape of healthcare, online counseling<\/a> (and other forms of telemedicine) will inevitably be at the top of their list along with antibiotics, x-rays, and the pacemaker. That may seem like a bold statement, but when you stop to consider how much access to quality mental health services is limited by factors such as the limited number of providers in rural areas, it\u2019s not hard to see why we think online counseling is a game-changer.<\/p>\n While as counselors, we\u2019d always recommend a face-to-face therapeutic relationship as your first line of treatment, the harsh reality is that physically sitting on our couch is just not an option for a large percentage of the population. Online counseling allows therapists to ensure our services are available to all everyone, including those faces big barriers to care. Specifically, we believe that:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fitting a one-hour therapy visit into normal office hours is a challenge when you\u2019re juggling things like a career, education, family and friendships. Therapists who offer online counseling have a greater flexibility to squeeze in a much needed session when it can be done before or after normal business hours. Additionally, online counseling makes it easy to get a simple question or concern addressed, which often takes less a whole hour of your and your therapist\u2019s time.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With online counseling, you don\u2019t need to worry about bumping into your neighbor in our lobby or being spotted walking into our building. This is especially attractive for groups of people (men, teenagers, high-profile members of the community, etc.) who are still highly sensitive to the unfair stigma that can go along with receiving quality mental health care. Of course, security concerns do exist with any type of electronic communication, so it\u2019s important to choose an online counselor who utilizes encrypted services and has safeguards in place to protect your privacy.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Anxiety, depression, trauma, agoraphobia and self-esteem issues are all reasons people struggle to have a productive life outside the safety of their own home. Just as these struggles can get in the way of a job or relationships, they can also get in the way receiving the treatment necessary to thrive. By bringing the treatment to you through online counseling, you\u2019re able to receive the help you need to face the world and pursue your goals.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”stop” _builder_version=”3.26.6″ background_color=”rgba(243,243,243,0.43)” custom_padding=”51.2344px|0px|40px|0px|false|false” custom_css_main_element=”index:99″ global_module=”47″ saved_tabs=”all”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_5,1_5,1_5,1_5,1_5″ _builder_version=”3.26.6″ custom_margin=”-130px||”][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/chenaltherapy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/CFT-Icon.png” alt=”Chenal Family Therapy Icon” align=”center” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”3.26″ width_tablet=”” width_phone=”25%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” max_width=”70%” border_color_all=”#505b6f”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_5,1_5,1_5,1_5,1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”0|0px|0|0px|false|false”][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_font_size=”18px” header_letter_spacing=”2px” header_2_font=”||||||||”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”12px” text_line_height=”1em”]<\/p>\n 501.781.2230<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n 870.340.2636<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n 479.595.0333<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Toll-free: 844.755.0530<\/a><\/p>\n Fax: 888. 816.7916<\/p>\n Info@ChenalTherapy.com<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/chenaltherapy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/psychology-today-1.png” alt=”Verified by Psychology Today” url=”https:\/\/www.psychologytoday.com\/us\/therapists\/arkansas?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjbPQyN744QIVl9dkCh3UZQq8EAAYASAAEgLJR_D_BwE” url_new_window=”on” admin_label=”Image” _builder_version=”3.26.6″ width=”81%” width_tablet=”” width_phone=”35%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”-15px||” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.01)” always_center_on_mobile=”off”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_font_size=”18px” header_letter_spacing=”2px” header_2_font=”||||||||”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”12px” text_line_height=”1em” custom_margin=”-10px|||-25px”]<\/p>\n1.Online counseling offer greater scheduling flexibility than traditional office visits.<\/h3>\n
