Is Online Counseling Right For You?

Online counseling is on the rise right now.  Therapists are beginning to offer online counseling more and more, as the demand for it increases.  Our team at Caring Therapists of Broward is excited to offer online counseling to those living in the State of Florida and abroad.  In order to receive therapy from a counselor, they need to be licensed in the State where you reside, therefore our team is offering counseling in Florida.  If you live anywhere in Florida, we are happy to work with you.  We also work with those living abroad in other countries. If you are curious about doing online counseling, here are some people we have found that are most interested in doing online counseling:

• If you live in an area without a large population of therapists
• If the therapist you want to work with practices too far from you
• If you are looking for convenience with scheduling and traveling
• If you enjoy using technology as a daily part of your life
• If you are living abroad and want to work with a therapist in the States

Online counseling is done through a computer or smart phone.  At Caring Therapists of Broward, we use a platform called Vsee.  We offer hours that are compatible with different time zones.  We offer counseling for a variety of issues; however we do a thorough screening to make sure online counseling is a good fit.  Our nutritionist on staff also provides her services online and can be incorporated into your treatment. If you are interested in scheduling a therapy session or a nutritional assessment, you can call our office at 954-378-5381 or email us at info@caringtherapistsofbroward.com.
