About Lavinia Hailey Garbee, LPC

Is online therapy a good fit for you?
5 quick questions · ~30 seconds

Stress, worry, anxiety, panic, or feeling on edge
Low mood, loss of interest, feeling stuck or hopeless
Relationship or family issues (including couples)
Life changes, decisions, personal growth, or “not sure yet”
2. How much is this affecting your day-to-day life?
It’s noticeable but I’m coping most of the time
It’s starting to interfere with work, studies, or relationships
It’s hard to manage daily tasks or responsibilities
3. How comfortable do you feel talking to someone online?
I’m comfortable with video / phone or chat and use them often
I’m a bit unsure, but willing to try
I usually prefer in-person conversations
4. Which practical issues apply to you?
My schedule is busy or changes week to week
I live far from providers or have limited transport
I prefer to avoid waiting rooms and keep things discreet
None of these, I just want to talk to someone

Is online therapy actually effective?
Research shows that for many issues—such as anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties—online therapy can be just as effective as in-person sessions. What often matters most is finding a therapist you connect with and staying consistent over time.

When is online therapy a better fit than in-person?
Online therapy is ideal if you:
  • have a busy or changing schedule,
  • live far from providers or have limited transport,
  • prefer the privacy and comfort of your own space,
  • travel frequently or split time between locations.
For many people, this flexibility is what makes it possible to actually stay in therapy.
Explore flexible online therapy options →
Is online therapy private and secure?
Reputable online therapy platforms use encrypted connections and secure apps that are designed for confidential healthcare communication. Sessions are held in a private space of your choosing, which can feel safer than a public waiting room.
See trusted online therapy platforms →
How do costs compare with in-person therapy?
Online therapy can sometimes be more affordable overall: there are no travel costs, less time away from work or family, and many platforms offer predictable weekly pricing. The value often comes from being able to attend regularly without extra friction.
