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.

Ashley is truly amazing at what she does. The work she does is powerful but not forceful and that definitely makes a difference. Extremely satisfied with the work we’ve put in together.

Ashley is a great therapist. I can tell because it seems like she’s a great human being at the root of it. Her life experiences lend a very knowledgeable stance on many of the issues that I’m facing.

Reviewed August 2022

Ashley already has me critically thinking about things in ways I havent before and I can’t wait to continue to get to share about me with her, and to hear her feedback. It’s so nice just to have someone to spill out to, who isn’t vested at all and can provide feedback with no strings attached or anything “in it” for them, and provide back a perspective you never thought of. Thank you for what you do!
