Online Counselling FAQs

We’ve answered some of the most common questions people search for when considering online counselling in New Zealand: based on their specialisations.

Online counselling allows you to connect with a qualified counsellor from the comfort and privacy of your own space, usually via a secure video call. At Mindful Connections, our sessions are held on a confidential, user-friendly platform. All you need is a quiet space, an internet connection, and a device with a camera. Once you choose your counsellor, you can book a session that suits your schedule — it’s that easy.

Is online counselling as effective as in-person therapy?

Yes, studies have shown that online counselling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy for many people and issues. It’s convenient, discreet, and allows you to access support regardless of your location. Our clients often tell us they feel more comfortable opening up in their own environment, which can help build trust and connection with their counsellor.
