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 have learned so much about myself since starting these appointments, William Kearn’s has really helped me.

Listens well, and then follows back on what you say with deeper insight to your mindset and finding the reasons why we approach things the way we do. I appreciate every session with him.

He is a great listener. Seems to ask the right questions in order to steer me in a positive direction. Gives examples from his own life to help relate to my current situations or topics at hand. I would highly recommend Mr. Kearns
