Rachel is a great therapist! I always leave her sessions feeling a weight off the shoulders. Her prompts and questioning always make me consider different angles on how to look at things which I think is incredibly helpful. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change! Thanks for all your help so far Rachel!

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.
