Patricia is amazing. She listens and helps with all different aspects.

Reviewed September 2024

During our first session, Patricia was able to identify patterns of thoughts and anxiety triggers from our conversation. It was refreshing to have an objective, yet invested, person listen to repeating themes and triggers. It helped me learn to be more aware of self-talk and not listening to the anxiety voice in my head. She provides worksheets and additional information. She faithfully sends weekly/ bi-weekly messages. She is dedicated and committed to improving the mental health of others.

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.
