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.

Great help for my issue
Sandra is kind and attentive. She makes me feel heard
I’m 42 and Sandra is my first experience with therapy. We’ve had three visits and I’m learning a lot.
Sandra goes above & beyond by sharing articles & such in between sessions that she thinks will be relevant & helpful to me.
Sandra is so compassionate and through counseling has helped me have self compassion.
I always feel better after having a session with Sandra.
Sandra really listens to me.
Sandra is patient and understanding. She is timely and thoughtful. Highly recommend
Sandra really listens to me & helps me work through my experiences. She provides food for thought which definitely helps me view things from other perspectives.
Sandra listens and makes appropriate comments and asks questions while helping to identify what you are working through. The reading materials and worksheets that she sends are helpful and a good read. She’s punctual for videos and responds in a timely manner with texts.
Sandra is a very talented therapist. She is patient with her clients, and is there when they need her. She does not get impatient and does her best to encourage her clients, even when they feel as though they might be doing everything wrong. The thing she taught me which I felt was most important, was self acceptance. That I need to value and accept myself first, and remember to love myself. Through those actions she taught me that setting boundaries, and managing my own life was the most important form of self care, that no one was going to do it for me, until I did it for myself. Thank you Sandra, for setting me on the path to healing, and being there for every step of the way.
She has caring eyes and she’s very helpful. I am very lucky I was set up with her. I look forward to emotionally maturing in certain areas with her aid. I know I can do it!
Sandra is an extremely compassionate counselor. She provides practical ways to address my concerns and has really helped me navigate my anxiety. I have grown so much in the months we have been meeting and and so thankful for my sessions with Sandra.
Sandra is a kind and wonderful listener I recommend her to anyone who needs an ear.
Sandra really listens to what I’m saying. She provides thoughtful insights and often follows up our sessions with additional materials based on our discussions. I feel I’m sorting through a lot of trauma with Sandra. And I’m feeling so much better and more alive!
Sandra is super easy to talk to. She really listens and gives me practical ways to better myself and take care of myself.
Kind and a great listener. Gives me great tips on how to be more mindful and slow down to enjoy life.
Its been a really great experience. Easy to access support.
I’ve really enjoyed the two sessions I’ve had so far with Sandra. She offers sound advice, and reminds you often how to utilize tools to help yourself through your day. Looking forward to more sessions.
Sandra is a great listener. She points out things I may not have considered for me to think about. Best of all, she provides me with tools to help bring my anxiety under control. I’m very grateful to have Sandra to speak with
I love talking to her so much. I look forward to it every week. She’s kind and patient.
