Frequently Asked Questions

Litehouse offers individuals a safe, confidential space to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with the support of coaches. Through live group text discussions, users can gain deeper self-awareness, develop effective coping strategies, and address a range of mental, emotional, and behavioral challenges.

Our platform is built to prioritize your anonymity, ensuring complete privacy without the need for registration. From the moment you join, the system automatically anonymizes your identity, so no personal information is required or stored. Users are assigned randomized identifiers, and all interactions are encrypted to maintain confidentiality. This structure ensures you can participate in sessions or access resources freely, without any concerns about your identity being revealed. With no registration and built-in anonymization, our platform provides a secure and private environment for all users.

By prioritizing anonymity, we create a safe and supportive space where you can engage openly and comfortably, knowing your privacy is protected.

Litehouse may be right for you if you're looking to enhance your quality of life. If something is interfering with your happiness or preventing you from achieving your goals, we’re here to help. Our groups address a wide range of specific issues, including stress, anxiety, relationships, PTSD, depression, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and more.

However, Litehouse may not be the right solution for you if any of the following apply:

• You are under 13 years of age.
• You are experiencing an urgent crisis or emergency situation.
• You are required to undergo therapy by a court order or any other authority.
• You do not have access to a device with an Internet connection or a reliable Internet connection.

Our goal is to provide accessible, supportive care to those who can benefit from it most.

Deciding whether you need group counselling often involves recognizing persistent challenges in your life and understanding how a supervised group can provide support and promote well-being. Here are some signs that group counselling might be beneficial for you:

• Overwhelming Feelings: You feel persistently sad, anxious, angry, or hopeless, and these emotions are difficult to manage.
• Difficulty Coping: Day-to-day stressors or responsibilities feel unmanageable or overwhelming.
• Unexplained Mood Changes: You experience frequent or extreme mood swings without a clear cause.

If any of these signs resonate with you, group counselling could offer the guidance, support, and shared experiences needed to foster emotional well-being.

Online group therapy has become increasingly popular due to its flexibility, accessibility, and ability to provide meaningful support. Here are some key advantages:

Convenience and Accessibility

• Remote Access: Participate from anywhere, eliminating the need for travel — especially beneficial for those in rural areas or with mobility challenges.
• Flexible Scheduling: A variety of session times are available, accommodating different time zones and busy schedules.

Anonymity and Comfort

• Increased Privacy: Join from the comfort of your home, making it easier to feel at ease and open during discussions.
• Anonymity: the platform automatically assigns users pseudonyms for added privacy.

Peer Support and Shared Experiences

• Community Connection: Being part of a group fosters a sense of belonging and reduces feelings of isolation.
• Shared Learning: Listening to others' experiences and coping strategies can offer new perspectives and valuable insights.

Diverse Perspectives

• Broadened Understanding:  Our online groups attract participants from different locations, backgrounds, and cultures, enriching discussions and promoting empathy.

Reduced Stigma

• Easier Access Point: Joining an online group feels less intimidating than attending an in-person session, encouraging more people to seek help.

Enhanced Accessibility for Specialized Groups

• Niche Focus: Access groups tailored to specific needs, such as anxiety, grief, or addiction, even if local support isn't available in your area.

With these advantages, Litehouse group therapy provides a safe, inclusive, and accessible space for people seeking support and personal growth.
