Individual Therapy

The focus of individual therapy is on helping you cope with your struggles in an caring, empowering, and confidential environment. Dr. Blanco aims to help you achieve peace of mind and support you to make the changes you wish to see in your life.

Dr. Blanco provides online therapy services through a secure online platform that is easy to use. Research has shown that virtual therapy is as effective as in-person therapy. Online therapy has many advantages and you are able to conveniently attend sessions from the comfort of your own home.

Virtual therapy can be easier to fit into your busy schedule. You no longer need to waste time driving, sitting in traffic, and spending money on gasoline. It is also a great option if you have childcare scheduling conflicts, physical limitations, or if you are living far from your therapy provider.
