It's been 3 sessions going on 4th and I feel confident in her ability to just understand and help me overcome, adapt and control my current situation. She listens well, gives her advice and opinions on my thoughts, and shares her personal journey too. I can relate to her because of our upbringings and experiences.

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.
