I’m very new to this therapy thing but so far I am enjoying Porsches. I like that she makes me think about things rather than just telling me what she thinks.

Porsche seems like a well in tune therapist who genuinely cares about the needs of her clients. I feel comfortable enough to share my thoughts and opinions without judgment which allows us to work through what is the real issue. I highly recommend her as she has been a strong supporter in my complicated situation.

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.

I highly recommend her as she has been a strong supporter in my complicated situation.
Porshea is very easy going and a great listener even though I can ramble a bit. She helps see things with another perspective.
I really like how compassionate she is and the fact that she helps addresses your current issues with understanding. She is relatable and makes you feel comfortable and confident in addressing the needs you currently have. She is open, honest, and relatable and makes you feel like you have a friend who genuinely cares almost equivalent to family. If I could claim her as a family I would, she is amazing. Highly recommend her! :>
