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 November 2023

Monica and I have been meeting over the past month. She is a good listener and gives good feedback on the issues that I am dealing with. She is able to stay objective with her advice and listens to what my goals are currently without overdirecting the conversation. I appreciate that she is flexible with her methods of communication as well as providing check ins between meetings. I feel a genuine sense of empathy through the few conversations that we have had. I look forward to working on more of my goals with her guidance.
