Choosing Empowerment
Virtual Mental Health
That feels like In-Person

At Choosing Empowerment, we believe that even in the toughest of times, valuable lessons can be found. Our experience during the challenging period of Covid-19 taught us an important lesson: adaptation. As we navigated through unprecedented circumstances, we discovered the incredible potential of Virtual Therapy. This newfound approach allowed us to extend our reach and provide assistance to a wider range of individuals than ever before.

​

The success we achieved through Virtual Therapy has been remarkable, prompting us to make a significant decision. Choosing Empowerment is now exclusively offering Virtual Therapy services. By embracing this innovative approach, we ensure that our clients can conveniently access the support they need from the comfort of their own spaces.

​

We are thrilled with this transformation, as it enables us to continue serving our community effectively while maximizing accessibility. Through Virtual Therapy, we can break down geographical barriers, offering our empowering services to individuals regardless of their location.

​

At Choosing Empowerment, we are committed to staying at the forefront of therapeutic advancements. By providing Virtual Therapy, we embrace the potential of technology to enhance mental well-being and create positive change in the lives of our clients.

​

Join us on this virtual journey towards empowerment and healing. Discover the convenience, effectiveness, and transformative power of Virtual Therapy at Choosing Empowerment.

​

Here are some important things to know about Virtual Therapy Services.

​

1. Virtual Therapists can only provide services in states where they are licensed (That's Texas and Louisiana for us).

2. Virtual therapy is NOT appropriate for some conditions and situations. (Serious Psychiatric Conditions or high crisis situations)

3. We all know how technology can sometimes fail to do what we want it to do. Be aware that this can also interfere with sessions. (lags in the video, echoes, internet issues, and don't forget security breaches and hackers). 

​

On the other end, there are many advantages:

​

  1. Convenience: Access therapy sessions from the comfort of your own home or any private space, eliminating the need for travel or commuting.

  2. Flexible Scheduling: Enjoy greater flexibility in scheduling appointments, with the ability to find mutually convenient times that fit your busy lifestyle.

  3. Accessibility: Overcome geographical barriers and access therapy regardless of your location, making mental health support available to individuals in remote areas.

  4. Anonymity and Privacy: Feel more comfortable discussing sensitive topics from the privacy of your own environment, ensuring a sense of confidentiality.

  5. Expanded Options: Choose from a wider selection of therapists, including professionals outside your local area, based on specialization, expertise, or personal preferences.

  6. Reduced Stigma: Benefit from a discreet alternative to traditional therapy, minimizing perceived stigma and encouraging more people to seek support.

  7. Continuity of Care: Maintain therapy progress seamlessly, even during times when in-person sessions may not be possible or practical, ensuring uninterrupted support.

  8. Integration of Technology: Experience the benefits of technology tools such as video conferencing and secure messaging, enhancing the therapeutic process and offering additional resources.

  9. Comfort and Familiarity: Engage in therapy within a familiar environment, which can contribute to a greater sense of comfort, relaxation, and openness during sessions.

  10. Cost-Effectiveness: Potentially save on transportation costs and time by accessing therapy virtually, making mental health support more affordable and accessible.

Mental Health and Wellness Coaching

​

Once you have processed the who, what, when, WHY, and where, and you have learned some skills, coaching may be the next level. Coaching involves a game plan and a guide to the living practice of what you have learned. We set goals, evaluate the best method of practice and make things happen. If something doesn't work, we come back to the table, re-evaluate and go for it again until you achieve the goals that you planned for. I am your cheerleader and accountability partner.
