CBT through telehealth offers the same rigorous evidence-based approach combined with the convenience and privacy of online sessions.
CBT Telehealth Therapy – Is It Effective?
Research suggests that telehealth CBT can be just as effective as traditional forms of CBT when it comes to reducing symptoms associated with anxiety, OCD and depression. In fact, some studies indicate that CBT delivered via video conferencing may even result in better patient engagement than traditional CBT. For people who live in rural areas or have difficulty accessing CBT in-person, telehealth CBT can be a crucial resource.
Telehealth CBT sessions are typically structured like traditional CBT sessions, with the added benefit of being conducted online. During CBT sessions, patients work with their therapist to identify and challenge negative thought patterns that may be contributing to their mental health issues and develop strategies to cope with emotions and manage behavior more effectively. Telehealth CBT also offers flexibility when it comes to scheduling appointments around lifestyle or other commitments.

Telehealth exposure therapy is an effective form of CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, for treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). During CBT sessions conducted via telehealth, therapists help patients identify and challenge negative thought patterns that may be contributing to their OCD symptoms. Exposure therapy involves gradually exposing the patient to anxiety-producing thoughts and situations with the aim of reducing fear and discomfort associated with them.
As with other disorders, research also suggests that telehealth exposure therapy can be just as effective as traditional forms of CBT when it comes to reducing OCD symptoms. Studies have found that telehealth CBT programs are particularly useful in helping patients learn how to manage intrusive thoughts and compulsive urges.
