Peter is by far the best therapist I have ever had. I was initially a little anxious as I had never done telegraphy and had also never had a male therapist. My first session with Peter immediately assuaged those anxieties. He is an attentive listener and is extremely good at helping to see and talk about the heart of an issue. I love that he offers concrete, research-backed perspectives on the issues we discuss and follows up with practices to help me grow in my mental health journey. I am really so thankful for him!

Peter is phenomenal. He’s very professional and you can tell he is genuinely listening when you’re speaking. I’ve worked through a few different things with him during the course of my treatment and I have seen tremendous improvement. I would recommend Peter to anyone looking for help.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
