This is my fourth attempt at therapy. The reason for my multiple tries is my desire to find someone who is not only knowledgeable but also someone I genuinely respect and can envision as a mentor. Dr. H definitely has that aura about him. In just a few sessions, he has provided me with insightful books to read and guidance on a better diet. However, the most valuable gift he has given me is the opportunity to restructure the belief systems that have been holding me back.

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.
