Only two sessions and I can see he will provide great insight. I wish calm and health surrounds him so he can continue to be so present and effective with those who receive his attention. Excellent

I’ve worked with Edward almost a year now and I can honestly say he has made such a difference in how I see myself and how I see things in every day life. He listens and understands and he remembers. I enjoy a humor aspect in my therapy and Edward always delivers and cheers me up. With the help of Edward I’ve been able to save myself and my relationships. I can’t thank him enough for the influence he has had in my life.

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.
