Benefits of Virtual Therapy
​

• Convenience: virtual clients share that they love not having to commute to and from appointments. 
• Flexibility: clinicians and clients may have more flexibility around appointment times when they no longer need to come into the office to do them. 
• Accessibility: through virtual therapy we can work with clients who might not live close enough to be able to drive to us and who lack a quality eating disorder specialist in their area. 
• Privacy: for individuals who are prominent in their community and are concerned about potentially knowing people in the waiting room-virtual therapy eliminates these concerns. 
• Being in your own space: you can do therapy from the comfort of your own home (maybe even with a pet nearby!)
• Effective: In our experience, we've found virtual therapy to be as effective as in person therapy. Research also supports that virtual therapy can be just as effective (Hilty, et al., 2013, Maheu, 2015, Quashi, 2015). 
• Additional Interventions: another cool thing about virtual therapy is that we can utilize additional interventions that might not be possible in the office. When appropriate and if you are interested, you can take us into your kitchen, fridge, or closet-for instance, we can do a session while you are preparing food or eating a meal. And we can do creative exposure therapy assignments for example, taking us into your closet and donating 'sick clothing.'

Who Wouldn't be a Good Fit for Virtual Therapy

• Someone without a good internet connection (if you can stream Netflix or Youtube videos-that means yours is ok!)
• Someone who is severely struggling with suicidality and is often unable to commit to safety. 
• Someone who is struggling with severe dissociation.
• Someone who lacks access to a personal computer or cell phone.

A note from our founder Jennifer Rollin, MSW, LCSW-C

In addition to in office therapy-I also have provided virtual therapy for years. I have seen it to be powerful and just as beneficial as in office therapy, based upon my own clinical experience.

Personally, I saw a therapist in the past who I met with virtually and I actually made more progress with that therapist than I had with previous ones. So i've experienced the benefits of virtual therapy firsthand.
