Virtual Counseling for Adolescents, Adults, and Couples in Milwaukee

Research has shown that online therapy is as effective as in-person therapy; not only is it convenient, but it gets results. Often, proximity to our office, busy schedules and travel may prohibit one from being accessible for face-to-face services. For these reasons, we offer sessions via our secure online video chat or by phone.

Who can benefit from online counseling? You might if…

  • You are traveling and want to continue your therapy services while you are out of town
  • You work long hours and find it difficult to get to our office
  • You are a stay-at-home parent who can’t leave the kids but needs to talk to someone
  • You have limited mobility, do not drive, and do not have transportation
  • You live outside of Milwaukee and are not able to find a specialist in your area. If you’re located in Madison, LaCrosse, Appleton, Oshkosh, Wisconsin and beyond, we would love to talk about working with you through our online therapy services.

Online Therapy FAQ

Our therapists are equipped to support you with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, trauma, and much more. Any topic listed on our See All Servicespage is available for discussion in online therapy.

For many people, online therapy just makes sense — it’s a flexible and convenient way to  prioritize mental health. 

With virtual sessions, there’s no need to worry about travel time or traffic — just log in from your phone or computer and connect instantly. This flexibility makes it easier to stay committed  to therapy, even with a busy schedule. 

Online therapy can also feel more comfortable and personal, especially for those new to the process. Being in a familiar, safe space — like home — can make it easier to open up and share sensitive thoughts and emotions.

Ultimately, choosing between online and in-person therapy is a personal decision. However, many people find that teletherapy is just as effective — if not more so — than traditional sessions. 

To help you decide, we offer free 15-minute phone consultations for all prospective clients.  This is a chance to ask questions, share any concerns, and see if our approach aligns with your needs. Our goal is to ensure you feel comfortable and confident in your therapy journey.

Yes, the information you share during teletherapy is protected just like it would be during in person therapy. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) ensures that your personal information remains confidential. 

At Hillary Counseling, we use a HIPAA-compliant platform for teletherapy, ensuring that your information stays private and secure. 

Your therapist will go over the specifics of confidentiality during your first session, but rest assured that maintaining your privacy is a top priority — whether your therapy sessions are online or in-person.
