Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Jennifer has been helping me for a couple years now and my situation has improved a lot!
Jennifer is an excellent therapist. She listens and offers great advice and is very responsive. I really trust her.
Talking with Jen gets me out of my own head and back to reality. She reminds me of what is important in life and the stress of the day can always wait
Awesome human, fun to speak to, great person
She is wonderful, practical and a great listener.
Jen always asks very thought provoking questions and brings me back to my most important life priorities (my family) she is never pushy or probes but because of that it makes talking to her easy. We are working right now on how I can measure progress - that is the most difficult part is to see the benefit and keep pushing forward
Ms Please was a fantastic therapist. She listened to all of my issues and have me solid solutions to make my life better. I recommend bher to anyone who needs a good therapist that listens and doesn't judge.
Jen provides me real time tools and keeps me focused on actions I can take today. Every season she reminds me to reflect/appreciate all the greatness which is a required reminder so I do not lose perspective on the important things in life
Great listener, someone I can talk to and trust. Providing great different variety of tools to handle my stress anxiety
Jennifer is excellent! She makes me feel comfortable and takes the sincere time to listen. She offers extremely helpful advice.
Jennifer Plesz has been counseling me for a few months now and in the first two visits she offered me more clarity and insight regarding my struggles than my last counselor did in a year! She is easy to talk to, keeps the conversation moving when needed, and asks good questions to get you thinking and “untangling” your issue. She is very good at staying focused on YOU! ...I add that last part for anyone, like me, who has had a counselor talk too much about themselves. You won’t get that from Jennifer.
Jennifer is a great counselor. She listens intently and offers insight and advice. I really appreciate her and would recommend her to others as well.
Jennifer Plesz is a great councilor. She is willing to work with my schedule. She is an excellent listener and provided me with several avenues of treatment.
