Online Counselling (Telehealth)

Professional support, wherever you are

Online counselling—also known as telehealth—is a flexible, accessible way to receive professional counselling support from the comfort of your own space. Whether you're at home, at work, or out on the road, all you need is a private space, a stable internet connection, and a device with a camera.

At Jake Sigley Counselling, online sessions are delivered using a secure, easy-to-use video platform, and offer the same level of care, connection, and confidentiality as in-person sessions.

Is Online Counselling Effective?

Absolutely.

Research consistently shows that online counselling is just as effective as face-to-face therapy for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and stress. Many clients even find it more comfortable and convenient—especially when life gets busy or unpredictable.

Who Is It For?

Online counselling can be a great fit if you:

  • Prefer the privacy of your own space

  • Live regionally or rurally

  • Work FIFO, shift work, or irregular hours

  • Are balancing work, family, and life demands

  • Want to access support without the travel time

If you’re new to counselling, starting online can also feel a bit less daunting—and that's completely okay.

What You’ll Need

Getting started is simple.

To attend an online session, you’ll need:

  • A device with a camera and microphone (phone, tablet, laptop or desktop)

  • A reliable internet connection

Before your first session, I’ll send you a secure link—just click it at our scheduled time and we’re ready to go.
