Rachel was very strong in her support of me. I thought all of the meetings I had with the therapist were handled in a most professional manner.

Dec 2023

I did therapy with Rachel for just a few short months, and even in that short time I've noticed my way of thinking about my issues changing for the better. She always listened to my thoughts and feelings, made sure she was understanding them correctly, and gave me thoughts and suggestions and asked thought-provoking questions that have helped me a lot, and I know will continue to help me!

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.
