Are you considering therapy for the first time? Perhaps you\u2019ve been to therapy before, but it\u2019s been a while. Either way, you may have noticed that the experience looks much more flexible than it used to be! While plenty of therapists still provide the tried and true in-person experience (Better Life Therapists are some of them), today you\u2019re just as likely to find that your counselor is offering Virtual Therapy over video.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve ever watched Frasier<\/em>, you may remember how he offered therapy and advice to his patients (\u2026and his thousands of radio listeners) right over the phone. People called into his show from wherever they were, whether it was from work, home, or even from a payphone. Frasier probably knew that life can be messy, and that getting in a car and driving to your therapist\u2019s office is often far from convenient! He used the technology of his day to meet his patients where they<\/em> were: in the comfort of their own home.<\/p>\n The telehealth experience has come a long way since then. Better Life Therapy can connect to your smartphone or computer to offer professional, face-to-face therapy completely over video. No battling traffic, no awkward waiting rooms, no shower required. Just you, a cup of coffee, and your kitchen table.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”1170px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”6em||6em||false|false” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_vertical=”0px” box_shadow_blur=”3px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.25)” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”Poppins|700|||||||” header_text_align=”center” header_font_size=”43px” header_letter_spacing=”3px” custom_margin=”||9px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”32b362c5-2718-410b-8166-eef5f17e2e6d” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text ul_position=”outside” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n There are plenty of reasons to choose video!
