Zanna Haney Stevanovic’s Favorite Parts of Telehealth Therapy

By Respark | December 9, 2020

Zanna Haney Stevanovic, one of our best Texas therapists, recently shared with us her most surprisingly favorite parts of working with clients through telehealth therapy, also known as mental-telehealth therapy.

Zanna mentioned her favorite thing about online therapy is how accessible it makes therapy to clients. She is now able to see clients that are not in the Austin area, so it has expanded the option of sex therapy for clients, especially those that live in rural areas. In addition, Austin Texas traffic can be a pain and stressful, so Zanna knows that she has taken some of that commuting stress off of her clients. Zanna mentions:

“I love the additional flexibility that it provides me and my clients. Since I have been doing online therapy, I am able to see clients sometimes at a different time that I didn’t have a time slot in the office. It also allows me to go stay with my family for a week and still work, which is really amazing and makes me feel very blessed!”

What was surprising to Zanna about the circumstances of telehealth therapy is how much more comfortable clients feel in her sessions with them. She believes it makes total sense that clients are feeling even more comfortable because they are in the privacy of their own home. A lot of Zanna’s clients have pets that join them in their sessions, so she sees that as a nice bonus that the clients get to have their pet there with them for comfort.
