Recent reviews
I have found great comfort in being able to talk with someone objective. I haven’t even told my best friend who I have known since I was four years old some of what I have discussed with Carey-Sue. I feel safe to talk and she listens without judgement . She offers suggestions on actions I can take and I understand more about what my past means. Wish I had started this process years ago.

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.

She is so friendly and kind, I can be so open and honest and she offers me so much support. I can't thank you enough for all your help Carey and I am excited to continue this journey with you.

I’ve been more than happy with the support provided by Carey-Sue Ham. The sessions are relaxed and provided me with an opportunity to discuss what ever was on my mind and causing me anxiety. The two months with Carey-Sue have been a great help and provided me with the ability to improve my outlook on life and move forward with optimism!
Carey-Sue is perspicacious and supportive. After over a decade of unhealthy coping mechanisms, she was able to get the the root and make me feel safe enough to address long standing trauma. This is all within the first session!
Carey is very passionate and counselor who will be very patient with you and your issues.
