Online psychologist

In connection with the Korona pandemic, this has at times become the only option. Online psychologists have become the new norm, but not everyone who offers online therapy has the same amount of experience. Psychologist work has extensive experience with therapy and couples therapy, both online and face-to-face. 

Fortunately, online psychology is for most people a good alternative, and not only that: Online psychologist classes also have a number of benefits; for many, online psychologist classes can lower the threshold for seeking psychological help at all. Online, psychologists can be reached by anyone, no matter where you live. It can also be easier to get purely practical in a busy everyday life.

Online access to a psychologist can be especially advantageous for people with diminished mobility.

Quick access to good psychological help online helps prevent problems from escalating further.

Online or face-to-face psychologist - what should you choose?

Online therapy might not be for everyone. For some it may feel unsafe and strange. Others may be unfamiliar with and unused to using technology.

For others it can be helpful to meet a psychologist face-to-face first. Once a connection is established it can be easier to proceed with video therapy. Some people may still get the most out of therapy with in-person sessions.

Many people think that it might feel too distanced and that video consultations are not suited for more emotionally charged contexts. Our experience is that this generally is not the case.

Genuine contact, empathic intonation and close emotional encounters definitely also happen through the web. Research shows that video therapy also works well with so-called emotion-focused therapies and intensive depth therapy (ISTDP).

Online psychologist classes also invite you to be able to regulate the degree of closeness through how close you are to the screen and camera, which in some cases can be very relevant.
