Is Teletherapy Right for You?

Don't Let Life Get in the Way of Feeling Better

Online Therapy in Louisiana

Life in Louisiana is full of flavor, but sometimes it throws curveballs. Managing stress, and anxiety, or navigating relationships can feel overwhelming. You deserve quality mental health care, but busy schedules or distance can make traditional therapy difficult.

That’s where we come in. We offer convenient and effective online therapy for Louisiana residents. Our licensed therapist Susan Harrington, LPC-S, LMFT-S, AAMFT-AS specializes in helping you achieve your goals, all from the comfort and privacy of your own home or safe space.

What is Teletherapy?

Teletherapy, also known as online therapy, is mental healthcare delivered virtually. Licensed therapists use secure video conferencing or phone calls to provide talk therapy, helping you address concerns and develop coping mechanisms – remotely.

Our teletherapy can be a great fit for many people, offering several advantages. Here’s why online therapy is a great option:

Convenience: No more traffic or scrambling to make appointments during work hours. Schedule sessions that fit your busy lifestyle without commuting.
Accessibility: Access care from our qualified therapist regardless of location, especially in areas with limited in-person options.
Reduced Stigma: The comfort of staying within your own environment for an appointment may feel less intimidating.
Cost-effective: Our teletherapy can sometimes be more affordable than traditional therapy due to reduced overhead costs.
Focus on What Matters Most: No need for childcare or commuting – just you and your therapist working towards a happier, healthier you.

Teletherapy might not be the best option for everyone.
