For clients, tips for successful online therapy sessions + staying mindful



Online sessions are a convenient way to receive therapy from the comfort of your own space. Teletherapy can be as personal and transformative as in-person sessions.


Be prepared Take a few moments to move your body before sitting down before your device. Check the chair and the room temperature for comfort. Test your head-phones or earbuds ahead of time. Anky will send you an email zoom invite shortly before the scheduled start time of the session.


Minimize distractions Aim for a quiet and private space that is as free from distraction as possible. Ask others to not disturb you.


Check and/or optimize your internet connection Check your device to make sure you can be seen from head to chest.


Staying comfy Grab a favorite shawl and tissues if needed.
