Melanie has been such an amazing support and really understands what my needs are. She has guided me through 'homework', our video sessions and keeps in touch in between our appts. Her style of mixing her own experiences along with her formal training and education has helped me see things and draw relations into my own self reflection. I'm grateful to be going through this experience and the positive influence it's having on my life.

I can’t express how lucky I’ve gotten with Melanie! She is kind, understanding, informative, and everything else you’d want in a therapist. Only after a few sessions, she’s helped make a great impact on the issues I have. Would definitely recommend her to all my friends, loved ones, and strangers!

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.
