Empowering You Via In-person Counseling or Tele-counseling Services

Welcome to Discovery Counseling

 

How is Tele-counseling different from In-Person counseling?


You may be familiar with the image of counseling  taking place in an office, two people sitting across for each other.  In-person counseling means face-to-face in the same room with your counselor. The counselor  provides the space for your counseling session. While this model is  well known, our current day technology has changed this picture.  Communication technology makes it possible to access services in the  comfort of your own space.


In today’s busy world, many people find it difficult to schedule an  hour plus commute to their counselor’s office on a weekly basis. Others  do not want to sit in traffic, or may want to meet with someone who is  not located in their neighborhood. If this is you, then tele-counseling (or tele-health) provides a solution that meets your needs.


Counseling and life coaching  should be solution-focused and results-oriented, making video sessions  an ideal platform for counseling.  Tele-counseling can provide greater  ease and flexibility, and research shows it can be just as effective as  traditional counseling. So which option should you choose?


Tele-counseling services are provided electronically, meaning that you and your counselor  could be miles apart. Your sessions are assisted with technology, such  as phone, video conferencing, email, online chat platforms, and even  texts. In this model, you are responsible for making sure your space is  private and confidential, and you feel comfortable enough to speak  freely and be able to benefit from the session in the environment you  have created.


Tele-counseling offers the advantage of making counseling  services accessible to anyone, anywhere. This makes it easier to access  the help you need.   In-person offers direct contact with your counselor and you


Our clients come from Farmville, Prince Edward County, Buckingham County, Dillwyn, 

Appomattox, Charlotte, Nottoway, and Cumberland County and via tele-counseling beyond driving distance.


In person ... or tele-counseling ... it is your choice!
