WHAT ARE PROS/CONS OF ONLINE COURSES?
Many clients come into therapy after taking the classes wanting to go deeper into their own beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Other clients come into therapy and enjoy course material as homework between sessions. These courses are not an appropriate substitute for therapeutic treatment, a therapeutic relationship, or formal medical or mental health care. Courses are a general educational tool geared toward general populations seeking information on specific topics (mindfulness, body image, etc.) Online courses are for educational purposes only. Think, psychology class combined with self-help suggestions. Therapy is a professional relationship with in-depth individualized goals, interventions, feedback, and support. .
