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.

Genuine, compassionate and skilled.
Nicole is a very good listener, easy to talk to, and non-judgemental.
I think her understanding of me goes deeper than just tackling one problem at a time, she sees everything as a whole and knows how to get me to the place I want to be at. She is patient and understanding with everything and always takes extra steps to understand what I am saying as well.
I have only been working with Nicole for a few weeks, but she has gone above and beyond what I ever expected! She has been thoughtful and supportive and has continued to encourage me daily. She seems to know when I need a response and when I just need to voice my thoughts. She has offered tools and resources that have been helpful and easy to use. I am grateful that I have found her.
Very kind and understanding woman, a great listener. A good friend.
This was my first time seeking therapy. Nicole helped me during a family conflict. She is a great listener, validating, and easy to talk too. I really benefited from my sessions with Nicole and I am in a much healthier place. Thank you, Nicole!
Nicole has been amazing during our short time in sessions together. She has been a great listener and has been extremely helpful with me starting my journey of healing from my childhood trauma.
Easy to talk to! Friendly and great listener with great advice!
