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.

Natonya has been an amazing companion along my healing journey! She is patient and welcoming and helps me to understand myself in ways I didn’t think I needed. Natonya listens well and provides non judgemental feedback while challenging me to see things in a different light when needed. Natonya has walked with me through many different seasons of my life and through them all she has been reliable, supportive and loving. I have had many therapist, but Natonya has been the most amazing counselor I have endured this far. I can not explain how grateful I am to have been able to work with her!

NaTonya has helped me tremendously. I feel more comfortable with myself, others, and communicate with others and actually get my point across constructively.

In the months spent in therapy with NaTonya I was able to grow as an individual. She taught me some ways to take control of my life and set boundaries with those around me. She guided me through each challenge I faced and helped me get the result that I needed. I learned to better communicate my emotions/needs a lot better because of her and how to say no. I've struggled with people pleasing my whole life and her advice has supported me in ways that I had never before. I truly recommend her to those looking for a therapist/counselor that will listen to them and provide top-tier advice that will benefit them in the long run.
