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.

MaRanda is a wonderfully compassionate therapist and has already taught me so much in a short time. As someone that has experience in the mental health field I was so refreshed to have someone that notices things I never did before and helps me work through them. She is so patient and helpful. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone that is looking for someone to help work through things.

Reviewed February 2023

I was very hesitant about seeking help and assistance. However, I knew it was time and was ready to tackle my past and become the best version of myself. MaRanda has really been helping me tap into building myself up and creating my own happiness.

Reviewed November 2022

As a leader and healthcare professional often times we suffer in silence because there isn't a safe space for us to be vulnerable. MaRanda, is very professional, a great listener and communicates effectively. She offers a different perspective on issues that allows you to reconsider your perspective without feeling challenged or dismissed. I look forward to our session.
