Yes, you can! Many people prefer (especially in recent times) to have their counselling sessions over the phone. This can be for a number of reasons. They may find it difficult to find a counsellor nearby that they feel comfortable with or maybe it's an issue with accessibility. Some people feel that they can disclose more on a phone call as they have a feeling of anonymity. A phone call can take up a lot less time than travelling to a counsellor's place of practice and there is also the costs involved such as petrol or bus fare. 

The most important aspect when it comes to remote counselling is that you are in a space that you feel is confidential and nobody can overhear you. When we think that another person can hear what we are talking about, it can stop us from talking freely.  So try your best to pick a time when nobody else is in the house or a place that you are sure is private.
