Only one session, but great questions and rapport.

Reviewed April 2024

She is amazing. Just a positive person, but also keeps me honest, so when I am being too positive or too negative, she brings me back, and addresses everything that has been going on. I cannot recommend her enough, unless she gets too busy, cause I definitely appreciate being able to talk to her every week.

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.
