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.

Dr. Muhammad has greatly helped me along my path coping with anxiety and other challenges. He has also been able to adapt to the changes that have been happening in my life, and was able to easily shift some of my therapy needs to help reach my goals.
Dr. Muhammad met me on a day where I was at my lowest. He listened. And that day it was exactly what I needed. In the weeks since he’s been a partner and encouraging me as I’ve worked through things. I look forward to continuing to work with him.
Very respectful and empathetic. Very helpful in finding solutions to to cope better with situations/ problems. Takes his time with the patient and gives useful advise. Thank you!
AbdulRasheed Muhammad is absolutely wonderful. From day one he made me very comfortable. I have never participated in therapy . I was unsure what to expect and was unsure if this was right for me. Turns out it feels like this is exactly what I need. I am incredibly thankful for this platform and for AbdulRasheed Muhammad's time and his advice. I feel hopeful again. ☺️
