Its resistance to the concept&nbsp;has changed little&nbsp;over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A recent scientific study was done by the&nbsp;<strong>American Psychiatric Association<\/strong>&nbsp;suggests that online therapy today works just as well as traditional face-to-face therapy. Studies, looking at outcomes for clients and the quality of their relationships with therapists, found them equal across telehealth and in-person conditions. Since this&nbsp;meta-analysis&nbsp;(92 studies and 9,000 clients),&nbsp;many other studies&nbsp;have confirmed the value of teletherapy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study further states that today\u2019s clients are receptive to telehealth counselling because it involves no driving to an appointment, no searching for a parking space, no worries about childcare while they\u2019re away, no need to switch providers if they move, and no problem if the specialist happens to be far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second biggest advantage that online counselling holds over in-person counselling is that online therapy opens the&nbsp;door for clients who are located in geographically in different places, cities, countries and would find extremely difficult to travel a long distance to attain counselling sessions.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The answer is adopting the digitalization of counselling sessions.
