When people think of therapy, they often imagine a quiet office, awkward small talk in the waiting room, and the therapist scribbling away in a notepad. But here’s the truth—none of that is necessary to get real results. At Common Man Therapy, I’ve chosen to operate exclusively through telehealth. Not because it’s trendy, not because it’s convenient for me, but because it genuinely works better for the kind of people I help. Whether you're a working parent, a business owner, or someone who simply doesn't want to deal with the logistics and judgment of traditional therapy, telehealth changes the game. It brings therapy back down to earth—right where it belongs.
Telehealth Isn’t Just a Trend—It’s the New Standard
The explosion of telehealth during and after COVID wasn’t just a temporary shift—it was a wake-up call. Once people realized they could get the same quality of care (and in many cases, better results) from the comfort of home, they didn’t look back. Mental health care became more accessible, less intimidating, and far more flexible. Today, people from all walks of life are choosing telehealth over in-person sessions—not just for convenience, but because it fits real life. It respects your time, your space, and your need for practical, results-driven help without the extra fluff. Here are four reasons why telehealth is the way to go!
1. No Commute, No Excuses
Let’s be honest—getting to a therapist’s office is a hassle. Between the drive, parking, rearranging your schedule, and possibly missing work, therapy can start to feel like one more chore. Telehealth removes that barrier completely. Whether you’ve got a 30-minute lunch break or a quiet hour after the kids go to bed, you can hop on a session from your phone, tablet, or laptop. You stay consistent with less disruption to your life, which means better outcomes in less time.
2. Comfort Leads to Clarity
People aren’t at their best in stiff office chairs under fluorescent lighting. You’re more open, more honest, and more relaxed when you’re in your own space—your truck, your backyard, your favorite chair. That comfort makes a difference. When you’re not adjusting to an unfamiliar environment, you can focus entirely on the conversation. Sessions get real, fast. And that means we can get to the root of things without wasting time warming up or performing for the setting.
3. Privacy Without Paranoia
No one wants to be seen walking into a therapist’s office, especially in a small town. And for many men and women I work with, there’s still a stigma around getting help. Telehealth keeps it discreet. You don’t have to explain your absence, look over your shoulder in the parking lot, or bump into someone you know in the hallway. With secure, confidential video sessions, your privacy is fully protected—and your focus stays where it belongs: on getting better.
Therapy doesn't need to be complicated. It doesn't need to involve traffic, awkward couches, or buzzwords that don’t mean anything to you. What it does need is a real conversation with someone who gets it—and who won’t waste your time. That’s what telehealth offers, and that’s why I use it exclusively. If you’re ready to talk, to be challenged, and to actually see change, let’s make it happen. Contact me at 802-521-0140 or email me at commonmantherapy@gmail.com.
