Online Therapy in California
FOR PANIC ATTACKS, OCD, ADULT ADHD, ANXIETY, BINGE EATING, EMOTIONAL EATING, & BODY IMAGE
DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
You would do anything to avoid sitting in South Bay or Los Angeles traffic for your therapy appointment. You already have a lot going on with your demanding job, family, and never-ending tasks. You wish you could fit therapy into your busy schedule but struggle to find the time. If this resonates, online therapy might be the ideal choice for you. With telehealth, you can access a qualified psychologist with the click of a button – right from your phone, tablet, or laptop.

ADVANTAGES OF TELEHEALTH
Meeting with a new therapist can be scary, but online therapy can make the process more comfortable and convenient.
ACCESSIBILITY
I established Compass CBT as an online therapy practice serving clients across California, New York, and Florida to make therapy more accessible. Online therapy removes distance as a barrier to quality mental health care. Telehealth is also a convenient choice for individuals with physical accessibility challenges that make commuting to an office in major cities like San Francisco or San Jose difficult.
PRIVACY
Privacy is a big concern for many people. You might be concerned about running into a curious neighbor in the waiting room. Or, you might feel more comfortable talking about sensitive subjects within the safety of your home. At Compass CBT, your privacy is paramount. All video sessions and electronic health records are encrypted and secured per the strictest HIPAA guidelines.
TIME
A busy schedule can often get in the way of self-care. With remote therapy, you can chat with a therapist whenever and wherever is convenient for you. This could be a quick video call during your lunch break or a session after putting your kids to bed. Making time for therapy can make a huge difference in your ability to be there for yourself and your loved ones.
SOCIAL DISTANCING
Covid has taken a massive toll on our mental wellbeing. Virtual therapy is also a good option if your anxiety has gotten worse during the pandemic. We can work on expanding your social world at a pace that's comfortable for you.
FLEXIBILITY
The flexibility of therapy on your phone or tablet lets us get more creative. For example, if you are anxious about doing an exposure, such as going to the supermarket, we can do it together until you build up the confidence to do it on your own. Taking the conversation beyond the confines of a physical office can breathe new energy and possibilities into the therapeutic process.
HOME COMFORTS
Telehealth therapy in California via video from the comfort of your home is an excellent option for you if you like having your cozy blanket, cup of tea, or furry friend snuggled by your side as you show up for the courageous work of therapy.
EFFECTIVENESS
At this point, you may think, “Sure, online therapy sounds good, but is it effective?” Yes, it is! Research shows that online Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is as effective as in-person therapy. The most important finding from the research is that having a good therapist matters more than the therapy format. I hope that I can be that therapist for you!
