Frequently Asked Questions About Online Therapy, Sessions, and What to Expect
Online Anxiety Therapy
How does online anxiety therapy work?
Online anxiety therapy with Jasmine Peck, LCSW is delivered through a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform to ensure your privacy and confidentiality. After scheduling your appointment, you’ll receive a secure link to join your virtual anxiety therapy session, which can be attended from your home or any private location with reliable internet access.
Online anxiety therapy closely mirrors in-person therapy and has been shown to be just as effective for treating anxiety disorders, panic attacks, and stress-related concerns. Telehealth therapy also offers increased flexibility and convenience for clients located in New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts, especially for those who feel anxious leaving home or managing busy schedules. Please note, if you live outside of these areas, you are welcome to browse the workbooks, which are available to anyone, anywhere.
What can I expect during my first online anxiety therapy session?
Your first online anxiety therapy session is focused on building rapport and creating a strong foundation for treatment. Jasmine will review important practice policies, answer any questions you may have, and gather intake information related to your anxiety symptoms, personal history, and therapy goals.
This session also marks the start of the therapeutic process. Jasmine will guide the conversation, help you identify patterns that contribute to anxiety or depression, and may introduce initial coping strategies or nervous-system regulation tools for you to practice between sessions.
How many anxiety therapy sessions will I need?
The number of anxiety therapy sessions needed varies depending on your symptoms, goals, and life circumstances. Jasmine uses a collaborative approach to anxiety treatment, meaning session frequency is discussed together and adjusted as your needs change.
Most clients are encouraged to begin with weekly anxiety therapy sessions, then transition to bi-weekly and eventually monthly sessions as anxiety symptoms decrease and coping skills strengthen. The goal of anxiety therapy is to help you build lasting tools, increase emotional regulation, and move toward greater independence and confidence.
