Does Telehealth Therapy Really Work? (A Catholic Therapist Explains)


Listen Later

Many Catholics wonder whether online therapy can truly offer the same healing as meeting face-to-face. In this episode, Catholic therapist Adam Cross, LMFT (#116623) explores the question: Does telehealth therapy really work?

Drawing from his own clinical experience, Adam breaks down the pros and cons of telehealth and in-person therapy, how both approaches serve the human person, and what it means to encounter Christ in the digital age of counseling.

Topics covered:

• Why telehealth became essential after COVID and how it changed therapy
• The spiritual and relational power of being physically present
• Accessibility and opportunity—how telehealth expands Catholic therapy
• What research says about the effectiveness of online sessions
• When in-person therapy is better for children and teens
• How trust, honesty, and fit matter more than format
• Finding faithful Catholic therapists, wherever you live
• Why healing begins in vulnerability, not proximity

Tune in for a thoughtful and encouraging reflection on how faith and technology can work together for healing—showing that grace can reach us anywhere, even through a screen.
