FAQ
What to expect from a therapy session with an online psychologist?
An online therapy session with a psychologist typically takes place through a secure video conferencing platform. The patient and the psychologist connect remotely at the scheduled time, and the session proceeds similarly to a traditional in-office consultation, with the opportunity to discuss various issues and work together towards therapeutic goals.
For more information, please refer to the Guidelines on best practices for teleconsultation.

How to find a reliable and qualified online psychologist?
When choosing to consult with an online psychologist, it is important to make an informed decision to optimize your time and investment. Here are some practical tips:

- Consider recommendations: if your doctor or trusted individuals recommend an online psychologist, it can be a good indicator of quality.
- Review ratings and testimonials: explore reviews and testimonies of other patients to assess the overall appreciation.
- Verify specialties and expertise: make sure that the online psychologist has expertise in the area that interests you, whether it is addictions, anxiety disorders, traumas or else.
- Verify qualifications: the online psychologist should have the necessary qualifications to meet your needs. For therapy related to psychological issues, consulting a clinical psychologist is recommended.
- Trust your instincts: during your initial encounter with the online psychologist, listen to your intuition. Feeling comfortable and confident is a positive sign to continue therapy.
What are the advantages of consulting with an online psychologist rather than one in a traditional office?
Several studies (Andersson et al., 2012 ; Barak et al., 2008 ; Mohr et al., 2012) have demonstrated the effectiveness of teleconsultations for various mental health disorders. Ultimately, the choice between consulting an online psychologist or visiting one in person depends on the individual's preferences.
