What is e-Therapy?

The idea behind counselling has been around since people first started to use language. It is sharing problems in order to find solutions and receive some support. Many people get this sort of support from family and friends, but sometimes it is helpful to talk things out with someone who is not involved in a personal way. In keeping with the progress of technology and the ubiquity of the World Wide Web, these days there is no need to leave the comfort of your own home in order to reap these therapeutic advantages. 

E-therapy or online therapy is an electronic way of getting supportive online counselling either through email or online chat. Your online therapy experience will be all about your needs and what you need to talk about. Perhaps you are having relationship difficulties; maybe you are dealing with a loss or struggling through a life transition. Perhaps you need more support than you are getting from you face to face therapist or you might simply have some questions and you need a few brief consultations. You might also want someone to come alongside you and help you explore your life and challenge your growth existentially or spiritually over a longer period.
