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.

Reviewed March 2023

Shemeah is so wise and timely in her encouragement and counsel. She listens and somehow hears what is going on behind all the details of my words. She asks great questions that drill down to the core of my thought processes and challenges me in a very kind way to evaluate the thought pattern to see if it is true and what other thoughts might be true around my circumstances. I would highly recommend her to a friend, and look forward to talking with her each week. She always responds when i submit journals for her to see, even when there isn't really a question or urgent need. I believe Shemeah is caring, professional and offers counsel that is helping me heal.

Reviewed March 2023

I just had my first session with her. She’s INCREDIBLE. She’s kind, warm, empathetic, inviting, listens intently making me feel heard, intellectually stimulating, and educates without being patronizing. A+
