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.

Kaci has been outstanding in keeping me mentally and emotionally tuned up. I don't see myself as needing a major psychiatric overhaul, but the best time to avoid problems is before they get started. And she's done an outstanding job of pointing out a few of my non-obvious blind spots.

Kaci has been doing a good job of finding all the little ways in which my thinking about life needs a reset. There's nothing major, but that probably adds to the challenge for her, since she's chasing after a lot of small things at the margin.
