Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

I am currently a medical student and I have been dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety. I don't even know if I realized how much stress I had until I dumped it all on James. And James just took it in stride; he has been extremely helpful! At first I was reluctant to talk to a therapist because of the time commitment and even the stigma of just needing mental help, but I am so glad I finally did. I have been using the messaging app online and it has been very convenient and helpful. Thank you James! You're changing lives!

Reviewed Sep 2021

I've been working with James for a little over 2 months now. I've been to various therapists over the years, but this is the first time I feel like a therapist is on the same page with me. I've felt very comfortable opening up to him and I feel very safe. He is very warm and kind and always has a technique or idea to try. He is not pushy and only suggests thing to try if you are feeling open to it. Otherwise, he is great at listening and asking questions. If you are worried about doing therapy again, like I was, then no worries, James is the guy for you.
