Never experienced virtual care?

Online Therapy

Also known as “telehealth” or online counselling, the use of virtual therapy has become a service widely offered for the past several years now – and it is here to stay! That’s good news, because it means our clients have options! We can provide therapy to even more clients in need, and YOU get to choose how you prefer to access counselling. Virtual therapy reduces barriers for so many clients, making counselling more accessible.

I live too far away to drive to your office in St. Thomas. Can you still help me?

Absolutely! Unless there is a good clinical reason why you need to be seen in person, we can see you virtually. In fact, a significant proportion of our clients DO choose to access therapy virtually. You can even opt to do a combination of both in-office and virtual appointments – it’s up to you! We offer in-person therapy at our office in St. Thomas, but we provide virtual care throughout Ontario and Nova Scotia.

Breaking down geographical barriers

Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person therapy?

This question has come up more and more since the pandemic forced many therapists to offer virtual care to their clients. A fair bit of research has actually gone into trying to answer this question. Results of this research show that, in most cases, virtual therapy is as effective as in- person therapy. When you consider that counseling is only effective when people actually go to their appointments, it makes sense that being able to breakdown any barriers to attending those appointments is pretty important.

Virtual therapy does require that clients have the technology(smart phone, tablet, or laptop) and a reliable internet connection to take part in virtual appointments.

Still not sure about online therapy?

Let’s talk convenience ... Let’s talk time!

Getting to a therapy office takes time. Maybe you don’t have the time (or energy) after work to drive to an office for a therapy session… maybe you need to grab your kids from school… or tend to the many other demands of your day. Maybe your health makes leaving your home difficult. Logging on to an appointment from the comfort of your home… well, that might make more sense for your life! We even have clients who take advantage of their break at work to attend a therapy session virtually. At Refined Wellness, we understand obstacles, and our goal is to break through those barriers to make therapy as accessible as possible for our clients.
