Whitney has helped me get back on into the real world after a quite serious burn out. She's been excellent at encouraging me to find balance in my life as well as inspiring, encouraging and helping me open up and reflect and learn how to live a more sustainably. Setting boundaries, learning what works for me and communicating it has changed my life. I can't recommend her enough!

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.
