Online Counselling Using Skype

Technology has become useful in personal growth work. While using the internet as a mode of communication for therapy may seem somewhat unconventional, online video counselling is an effective, confidential and convenient alternative to face-to-face sessions.
I am using the internet with great success to work with clients who are unable to visit me in person. I’ve seen clients in Australia, England, Africa, Sweden, Mexico, the US and here in Montreal, Canada.

What is Skype?

Skype is a program that provides an excellent (and free) way of communicating with people.  Skype allows video connections so the people using it can see and hear each other clearly. All Skype sessions are encrypted to ensure privacy and confidentiality. You can read more about it on Skype’s website. For all these reasons it is a terrific option for providing counselling services with clients who are unable to come to the office.

Getting Skype - Skype is a free program easily downloadable from their website at www.skype.com

What is needed for a Skype counselling session?

In order to use Skype you will need the following:

• The Skype software, available free at Skype.com
• A high-speed internet connection (dial-up is too slow)
• A webcam with a microphone. Check your computer as most of the new ones have a built in webcam and microphone, so nothing extra is needed.

Preparing for the Session

A few minutes prior to the session we will test out the connection to ensure it is working. All my Skype sessions are conducted in privacy, in the same way I would conduct a session with you in person.  It is important that you also have a space which is private and where you will not be interrupted during the time we are together.

Fees

• $100 for a one hour appointment

• $140 for a 1 ½ hour appointment

• 3-hour ‘Wake-Up Call!’ $225 over Skype

NOTE: All fees to be paid in Canadian currency.
