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.

Catherine is so pleasant to work with. Therapy has been a safe space for me to dive deeper into solving the problems in my life and understanding the role I play in them. I have been able to shift my energy drastically and stay focused on my goals while practicing self love. She is very helpful and has a great understanding of family dynamics and social interactions.
