Most people are faced with mental health issues as the result of childhood traumas, family background , spirituality and cultural issues and poor socio-economic conditions. People need to be assisted in understanding how childhood experiences influences their coping skills. They need to be able to identify, acknowledge and manage emotions associated with past memories and thoughts. They need someone to listen to them without judging them, understanding their cultural background and relationships dynamics.

It's undeniably true that life can be unkind to each and everyone of us. At different points of our lives we face enormous psychosocial strossors (I.e Death of loved ones, health threatening diagnosis, sickness of our loved ones, parenting challenges, marital challenges, abusive relationships, work related pressures etc. ). These coupled with everyday pressures can cause one to feel helpless, less important, discouraged, not worthy and a whole lot of negative emotions. Should you just give up? Or pretend that these issues don't exist? Or perhaps just escape and flee? As tempting that might sound, You Really Don't Have To.

Without a sense of purpose and meaning, life can feel chaotic, directionless and lack a clear sense of fulfillment . I focus on questions of purpose and meaning and of identity and selfhood, I cover all mans search for meaning, in all traditions as well as existentialism and philosophy in my worldview and talk therapy. I acknowledge that the human is more than just mind and body, but is seen as "homo-religiosus", we are creatures that seek answers and purpose that transcend life and death, and that our worldviews can then sometimes be very liberating and helpful or act as a glass ceiling limiting our view of ourselves.

The approach mainly used is a Psychodynamic approach, which can be described as linking current life difficulties to relevant early childhood experiences, which may be affecting one’s life at a later stage. It is important to note that each individual may suit a different intervention and this can be determined by their unique circumstances, environments as well as their needs and process.

Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialised therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
