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.

Always great to talk to, helps me to vent my stresses and get feedback.

Reviewed May 2023

Brad is empathetic and kind. I never thought therapy would be something worthwhile or even meaningful until I spoke to him. He listened actively, helped make plans to get better, and from the first session gave me insight into myself. He is empowering. In fact I recommended him to my brother who also struggled to find good therapists and he also loves him.

Reviewed January 2023

Brad is extremely empathetic, kind, and caring. He offers a variety of different introspective methods to work through issues and I always feel better afterwards.

Reviewed November 2022

I was trapped in my own head by my trauma and fear. And while I still have a way to go, Brad has helped me get to a point where I can start to get on with my life. Thank you.

Reviewed September 2022

Brad is amazing! Not only does he help me with my anxiety, but also helps me to understand why I’m feeling this way. I couldn’t recommend him more!

Reviewed July 2022

Really friendly therapist, easy to talk to. I'll find myself trying to describe an idea or feeling I think to be complex and worry that no one will understand what I mean, but he always seems to get the angle I'm coming from. He's truly been a great help.

I am enjoying my experience so far.
