Welcome back to the blog for
Mindset Therapy, PLLC. Today we will review some of the benefits of
telepsychology services and how they might be the best choice for you once you
have made the decision to seek mental health care. In the digital age,
telepsychology is the best fit for many people.
The world is becoming more
digital. Most items or services can be
ordered from your home/office and delivered to your door. When internet services became popular, it was
first packages that could be delivered, but has expanded to groceries and restaurants.
Now, medical services are also becoming
available via technology. Telepsychology services allow more people to receive
mental health treatment due to numerous obstacles being removed, such as travel
time to/from your appointment, absence of a qualified therapist in your area,
and the need to find childcare to attend your appointment. Another obstacle removed is the stigma of
attending a mental health appointment. Although seeking mental health care is
not a sign of weakness, some people still put off attending therapy due to concern
with what people will think.
When you have made the decision
that working on your mental health is a priority for you, choose a therapist
that makes virtual house calls, and recognizes time and comfort are your
priority. Research has shown that
services via telepsychology are equivalent to those received more traditionally
in an office. When the two methods of
delivery for your mental health treatment are equivalent, you need to consider
what works best for you. If you are a
busy professional, student, or parent, being able to call into your appointment
where you are can be a time saver. There
is no need to re-arrange your schedule to allow you time to get to your
appointment. Additionally, there is no
need to schedule childcare because you will remain home while you are attending
your appointment. Convenience is key in
today’s busy society in which one more task to add to an already hectic
schedule can be difficult.

Texas, which allows you to attend the appointment from the location most
convenient for you. Visit Mindset Therapy to
