Why receive therapy at home?
Currently, there are several options available:
Face-to-face therapy
Online therapy
Therapy at home
At Galeneo, we recommend carrying out psychological therapy in your own home for several reasons. Among them:
1. Convenience
One of the advantages of home therapy is that the patients feel more comfortable, especially if they have reduced mobility or physical disabilities.
2. Discretion
Some people do not feel confident in going to public places to receive their therapy and prefer to receive it discreetly, maintaining privacy in their own home.
3. Factual information
By being inside the home and meeting family members, therapists can obtain very useful information about their environment, lifestyle and personal relationships.
4. Trust
The feeling of security that comes from being at home facilitates the forming of a strong bond between the patient and the professional.
5. Time-saving
Through the avoidance of unnecessary travel, this type of psychological care is more accessible for people with little free time.
6. Resources
In the patient's home, there is more space and an abundance of materials available to facilitate working on the therapy in a more comfortable and effective way.
7. Effectiveness
For children and adolescents, it is especially recommendable and effective. At home, the professional can observe their behaviour and teach techniques to parents in their own family environment.
