For better and worse, this new world is here to stay, and therapists are learning to adapt. It’s not meant to take place with two computer screens and sometimes thousands of miles in between therapist and client.Īnd yet this new era of online therapy has opened up unprecedented access to psychotherapy for people who couldn’t otherwise get to a therapist’s office, or find just the right therapist in their area. Psychotherapy is about people, about sitting face to face with a client and talking about things they can’t talk about with anyone else. You probably didn’t become a psychotherapist because you wanted to work on a computer all day. Some therapists have been doing online sessions for a long time, but since the Covid-19 Pandemic began, it’s become unavoidable.

So we put together this two-part guide on how to use Zoom for online therapy sessions.

We’ve been doing therapy training online for years, but we’ve noticed that in the last few years a lot more of the actual therapy is happening online as well.

At Academy of Therapy Wisdom, we want to help you be the best therapist you can be with our online therapy courses and supportive therapist resources.
