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.

Wendy is always super intentional about everything she does, says, and the homework that she gives me. When I write to her, she response with a very thought-out response and addresses every single thing that I have told her. She has helped me work through things that I have been holding onto for so many years. I have been in therapy since 2013 and this has been the most productive counseling relationship that I have had.

Wendy is a kind and compassionate person with an infectious smile. It feels safe and effortless to speak with her. In a short period of time recommendations, tools and techniques have helped immensely to manage trauma and process my experiences.

I have had 2 other counselors and had lost all respect for them so I never wanted to ever go back to see anyone else. My daughter convinced me to try one more time because she has a counselor through your company and she loves hers. I did and found Wendy and have loved her from day 1.

I always come away from a session with Wendy feeling like I have learned something new about myself. She makes maximum use of our time together, asking questions that bring us to the root of the problem. She also draws on conversations from previous sessions that provide context. I feel seen and heard when I talk to her. She is empathetic, but she provides firm prodding when needed. I would recommend her to anyone working through difficulties.
