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.

During a very hard time in my life (a lost of a child) Mr. Hodges has been very supportive of my situation. He’s been a true gem to have. Very professional, Christian Spirit, and informative. I can not express my gratitude enough for the work he does.
Frederick has been very understanding. He has always showed concern and offered insite to the things we discuss and I always look forward to discussing my problems with him.
I can’t express my gratitude enough for Mr. Hodges. He’s a great therapist. He has been incredibly helpful and supportive. What a quick turn around in my mental health, my emotions, my thought processes. He is exactly what I needed to help push me to get to my next chapter in life.
Helped me see things that I have overlooked in my life, thank you
Mr. Hodges has been a great therapist. Compassionate and understanding
I was apprehensive at first and after meeting with Frederick I realized that video sessions were perfect over distance. I’m very comfortable with talking with him and his ability to help me grow.
Very helpful and attentive to needs.
Laid back guy that is easy to talk to and is probably aware of the type of situation (s) you are in regardless of your background. He is able to provide techniques and send you documents in order to help ease your conditions. He provides empathy and does not put pressure on you which is important when you are experiencing anxiety. Recommended.
Frederick has always been prompt, encouraging, and helpful. He is a great choice if you’re looking for someone to respect you as a client but treat you as a friend and give you real world insight. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to begin therapy or needs to change their therapist.
Extremely insightful individual with experience that gives me confidence in the therapy I'm receiving. I can relate to him better than any counselor that I've had in person.
He's been great throughout. Understanding and encouraging.

I feel absolutely comfortable speaking to Fredrick !
He has helped me with so many of my issues. There is a big difference from getting advice from your friends and getting advice from a professional. I really appreciate his almost father like very real advice that has helped me get into reality. I am no longer prisoner to people that were hurting me or keeping me down. My self esteem and overall sense of self has changed. If I could book everyday I would.
