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 started with my therapist for trauma therapy, anxiety, and depression. I have only been in therapy a short time, and I am making progress quicker than I thought I would.I believe my therapist has been the reason for this. She responds quickly, sends worksheets related to me, and offers support at any time. I am grateful for the support.I would highly recommend her.
