I've been working with Maria for a while now and she has been able to help me work through a lot of trauma, some of which I didn't even know I had until I had a mental breakdown about it in one of our sessions. She's been so supportive of me and my health and my struggles and encourages me to be better and set reachable goals. If I have a bad day or a really rough night, she is there and let's me talk it through. She will suggest different ways of handling my anxiety but she never tells me I should do anything. She lets me come to those conclusions on my own. She is compassionate, kind, and a great listener. I get that that is what a therapist needs to be, but with Maria, it's easy to talk to her because of it.

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.
