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.

If you want a therapist who truly cares about you, Elaine is the one. She's not only here to listen but focuses on understanding your problem so that she can effectively help you. I can tell that she takes great pride in her work from the way she always takes note during our chat, provides additional resources after the session and gets in touch to prepare before the next one! She structures her session well and makes sure each of them ends with clear, actionable recommendations.
