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.

I felt comfortable with Kimara right away and that’s very unusual for me!!
Kimara is thoughtful, knowledgeable and approachable. She gives practical advice, makes you feel heard and meets you where you are. This is the best therapist experience I have ever had.
I have only had one session so far with Kimara. Yet that one session has gave me a little more peace with my jumbled thoughts that I have had over the past few years. Definitely looking forward to more sessions and more confidence building.
