Online Therapy

Empire Psychotherapy is proud to offer online counselling services so that you can easily access a professional therapist who will actively listen to you and provide guidance while you remain comfortable in your own home!

Imagine having someone who can support you through processing your thoughts, feelings, and experience and help you overcome your struggles while you get to stay at home in a space that is safe and familiar to you.

While our Hamilton, Ontario, clinic is specially designed to provide a sense of comfort and peace, there are many reasons why you may be hesitant to access our counselling services.

Perhaps you have anxiety about leaving your home or maybe you simply don’t have the means to meet us here.

Empire Psychotherapy is dedicated to providing mental health services to those that need it, no matter their personal situation.

How Does Online Counselling Work?

Times are changing and it may seem that how we approach counselling is changing too but remote therapy is actually not a new concept! Even renowned psychologist Sigmund Freud corresponded with his clients via letters.

Thankfully, technological advances have allowed us to move beyond letter writing into the world of virtual therapy. Now, you can enjoy the full benefits of counselling services from a space that is comfortable for you during times that work best for your schedule.

Using a video conferencing program such as Skype, we can easily connect you with one of our amazing therapists in order to provide you with all the benefits our counselling services have to offer.

The Advantages of Online Counselling

Online counselling has proven to be just as effective as face-to-face therapy when it comes to dealing with individual, couples, and family issues.

In a virtual space, our team of therapists can provide the same guidance and support when it comes to dealing with struggles such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, confidence, marital issues, family issues, and more.

Overall, online counselling is highly beneficial to those who feel uncomfortable opening up in an unfamiliar environment. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being able to open up and be honest about your struggles when you are in a safe place such as your home.

Here are some more of the benefits you can experience when you choose online counselling:

  • Counselling services are easier to access and appointments can be flexible to better accommodate your needs. This is perfect if you live in a remote area or have a hectic schedule. 
  • Therapy can be more consistent because you can participate in therapy on a more regular and frequent basis.
  • The consistency and frequency of online counselling will result in accelerated progress.
  • You can eliminate any discomfort you may feel about seeing a therapist.

Our therapists focus on creating an environment of trust and connection, no matter if you come to see us in person or choose to have your sessions done online.

Our Approach to Counselling

In 2011, Empire Psychotherapy’s founder Ryan pioneered a modern and effective form of therapy based on Attachment theory that focuses on how early attachment experiences affect your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

This highly effective method of therapy has been proven to achieve faster and better results – whether you are sitting in a peaceful and quiet therapy room at our clinic or within the comfort of your own home.

Our approach also involves having real-life conversations and getting to know you on a deeper and personal level. We know we can’t guide you to make significant changes in your life if we are merely nodding our heads and jotting down notes in a notepad!
