Heidi has been kind, relatable and helpful. Whilst I may not be able to fully articulate my issues or pinpoint why therapy is something I need right now, she provides me with a safe platform to explore my feelings and better understand myself.

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.

I've been with Heidi for a short while but so far everything is amazing. She listens to me and we work on what I need at the moment.

Dec 2023

She takes the time to get to know what the root of my problems are, listens and gives great feedback! She not only makes sure I'm there for my video chats, but also sends me little texts throughout the week, which is something I enjoy/need!

Heidi is a thoughtful therapist. She listens to my concerns and helps me over hurdles from my everyday life and past experiences. I have found comfort and self worth after our discussions. She does not shy away from the things I say and I do not feel judged in any manner.
