You can expect the same results as you would with any professional in-person, traditional setting counseling session. The same ethics and principles apply to online counseling. Please read the advantages and disadvantages of online counseling to determine if it is right for you.

In the beginning sessions, the client and counselor will establish goals and a general time frame for counseling. Periodically, the client and counselor will assess if goals are being met. It is the counselor's goal to move you through the counseling process in the most efficient manner. The counselor desires to teach you the skills to manage your life more effectively and get to the place where you feel confident and able to move forward. While each person and situation requires an individualized treatment plan and may vary in the amount of time needed in counseling, the counselor recommends assessing whether the therapy goals are being met approximately every 6-8 sessions
