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.

She is wonderful
I am going through a very challenging time right now and Sakina has been instrumental in helping me care for myself so that I can support others. He ability to connect with my reality makes her relatable and therefore I feel comfortable being vulnerable. I appreciate that.
Sakina is an amazing therapist. Not only does she listen well, she shares her experiences so you feel comfortable opening up. She asks a lot of great questions and makes sure you know you are heard.
I knew from our first meeting that I’d like her. The way she shared bits of her life to relate to me made me feel like I’m not in this alone and she understands from EXPERIENCE how I’m feeling which makes her better equip to help me on this healing journey.
Sakina is a great listener and she creates an open environment in which you are able to express yourself without judgment. She also gives tools, insight, and tips to help you through whatever it is you may be going through. My experience with her as my therapist has been great so far.
I’ve only had one sessions with Sakina, but she has a wonderful personality that makes me excited to talk to her again. It’s like, you know she has a lot of clients, but she still manages to make you seem like you’re so important. She’s great.
She listens, She really sees the help i need and allows me to gather my whitsto my scenarios im enduring. shes very empathetic.
She is well attentive and she has great recommendations to try to help me cope with my problems. I look forward to talking with her because I am able to vent and get positive feedback on my behavior.
Sakina is a master at listening and repeating back my thoughts and interpreting the cause. She is a great support and recognizes who I am and how I think. I appreciate her!
