Teletherapy

In this age of continuously evolving technology, it's sometimes difficult to discern whether it’s making our lives simpler or more complex.  What is clear, however, is that we move about our day in a very different manner than did our parents and grandparents.  The very fact that you are on this website seeking the right therapist speaks to how our lives have been impacted both personally and professionally.  We’re busier and more plugged in than ever before, and it's increasingly more difficult to connect with others in person–either because of geographic limitations, time constraints, or it's simply out of our comfort zone. For therapy to be effective, it needs to be accessible. For this reason, Port Townsend Family Therapy embraces therapeutic communication in a variety of formats.

Teletherapy is a term that refers to therapy where the client and therapist are not face-to-face during a session. Port Townsend Family Therapy utilizes phone, video conferencing, and text to interact with clients. Each is quite different and comes with their own advantages and disadvantages.
