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.

Olga has been a light in darkness for me. I switched to her after an underwhelming experience with my first therapist from BetterHelp and hit the jackpot. I would recommend her to anyone in need of therapy for emotional trauma and beyond.

She has been great help with my mental health journey. She offers great advice and support. I feel comfortable being transparent and honest with her as she has helped me through difficult issues.
This was my first experience with therapy. At first I was nervous opening up but within minutes I felt so comfortable with Olga I was able to confide in her. She listened, asked questions that made me think, and allowed me to process at my own pace. She was very attentive and has a wonderful ability to make you feel heard and comfortable.
