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.

Marlon’s great at helping connect the dots. He’s sharp, knowledgeable, and a great mentor.
Marlon is a down to earth kind of person he taught me to look more at the facts of the situation than the feelings, and I have confidence in his ability.
I absolutely love my sessions with Marlon. He has shown me how to be a responsible adult man and take care of my family. I would recommend him to anyone who is facing issues with substance abuse, family, trauma, or just not understanding how to be an adult. he is an amazing man, an amazing human, and his help me in more ways than I can count. I think God that I found him. I hope that even after therapy, or I can speak to him and have a relationship. He really is the best and I recommend everyone who needs to know how to be a man and handle your shit listens to Marlon.
This fella has helped me in so many ways so far. I look forward to our time together.
