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.

Dr. Koutsouros has greatly helped me. I was hesitant to speak with someone, anyone, for a long period of time. She makes me feel comfortable. She listens. She helps me to understand why I feel the way I do so I can move forward to overcome the emotional obstacles that I am experiencing. She is helping me achieve my goal of coming to terms with the past, learning from my past but not letting my past become my present or my future.
Dr. Koutsouros comes to the table with understanding and has helped me to see the big picture and helped me to self realize baby steps I can make to find peace, grace, and understanding, pursuing my own passions and ways to navigate healthy relationships with myself and my family.
