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.

Overall rating:
Absolutely fantastic person with great advice, helpful on every level, in every situation.
On time and inquisitive to my needs.
Excellent !!!!!!!
Philip has been a very professional, friendly, calming and helpful presence in my life. I would highly recommend him!
My perspective remains the same. He is a very intelligent and sensitive person who has shown me respect and patience. He is also provided me with valuable advice and comfort.
Phil is exactly what I was looking for in a therapist. He’s an excellent listener, asks great questions that address interpersonal dynamics, and has a warm conversational style which I appreciate. (Freudian type therapy was not for me.) Phil responds quickly and has been a solid and safe place for me to process some very stressful situations. He meets me exactly where I am and gives grounded and practical suggestions to navigate my way through some rough waters. I feel he truly cares about my wellbeing.
Phil is very insightful and committed to helping me deal with my issues.
Excellent psychotherapist!
Phil is a genuinely kind, nice, smart and empathetic person. I feel very fortunate to have met him and to have him be a helpful listener and voice in my recovery and self work. I would strongly recommend him to anyone struggling with their mental health.
All my sessions, with my therapist, or groups have been very helpful.
