How online therapy works & why it’s effective

Written By Kate Jahries

Online therapy has become a popular option for women in South Carolina and Virginia looking for convenient, flexible mental health support. At Still & South Counseling, I offer online therapy sessions that allow you to prioritize your wellbeing from wherever you are.

Benefits of Online Therapy

  • Convenience and Flexibility – Schedule sessions around work, family, and other commitments.

  • Accessibility – No commute, making therapy easier to fit into a busy life.

  • Comfort – Attend sessions from a familiar environment, which can help you feel more at ease.

  • Privacy – Sessions can feel more confidential, especially for busy moms or professionals.

Possible Drawbacks

  • Technology Dependence – Requires a stable internet connection and a private space.

  • Limited Physical Presence – Some people feel they connect better in person.

  • Insurance Limitations – Some plans may restrict telehealth coverage.

Despite these minor drawbacks, online therapy offers a flexible, client-led approach that helps you prioritize your mental health without adding extra stress. At Still & South Counseling, telehealth sessions use evidence-based therapies like CBT and Motivational Interviewing, tailored to your goals, schedule, and needs.
