Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Clients mention: Great Amazing Attentive Excellent Genuine Helpful Professional Safe Supportive Thank you

Excellent. Direct. Professional. Great tools

Nov 2022

Within our first session I immediately liked her. She’s really attentive and genuine. I feel like she’s a great match with what I’m looking for in a therapist.

M.A.·Jul 2021

Honestly, I don't know what I'd do without her at this point. There are people who save your day or your week, but then there are people who save your life, even if it's by being a little rough on you sometimes. Seeing sides of yourself you've spent your whole life trying to ignore us hard work.

R.Y.·Apr 2021

Anna was such a breath of fresh air to all the other counsellors I've ever had in person throughout my life. I felt that she pinpointed and grouped my behaviours and thoughts i had into connected themes that I had not even realised were there. It made me see how I wasn't being true to myself and I was holding myself back based on what others thought, or more importantly what I thought others thought. Look forward to continuing the work we have scratched the surface of.

M.A.·Apr 2021

She’s a competent counselor

E.V.·Feb 2021

Anna is extremely compassionate and supportive. She understood where I was coming from and gave me practical tools to combat my issues. I was very happy with our work together.

S.A.·Jan 2021

J.O.·Jan 2021

Incredibly helpful, thank you!
