Phone Therapy: Does it make sense?

Revitalizing Psychiatry for North Jersey Mental Health: "Some of our clients miss therapy sessions because of the long commute: it takes for them 1-2 hours to get to the office for 1 hour therapy session. Others, especially elderly, sick or disabled people, cannot drive and depend on their relatives or transportation services in order to come for treatment. Many of them do not get the treatment at all for this reason. We also often receive email or phone calls from people leaving far away from our offices, unable to find counselor close to home and asking us for help. Some people told us that it would be much easier for them to explain their problems (especially sexual ones) over the phone from the privacy of their home, car or office, at least initially"

Phone Therapy is available at the Center of Revitalizing Psychiatry
