Michelle is doing a wonderful job understanding me

Reviewed January 2023

If you are looking for a therapist that has the ability to merge book expertise with strategies you can apply in your everyday life, then this is who you need. I've always had a fear of working with a therapist. My fears were: They would drag out sessions with no sense of resolve in order to "Take Your Money" or they would be so left field about the theory that I wouldn't be able to use new knowledge in the crazy world we live in. Both of my fears were eliminated in our first conversation. Throughout each session I am able to see, with Mrs. Parker how wrong I was about therapy. I have renewed hope in my situation and even as an adult I am embracing new mindsets for a better future.

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.
