Kirsten and I met twice and had several text exchanges. She was able to help me identify issues in a parental relationship and set boundaries. It was really helpful to talk through my challenges and prep for hard conversations before I had them. She was very approachable and non-judgmental. I really enjoyed her approach.

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.
