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.

She's awesome! I love Deb !!!
Dr Berghuis is caring, a great listener, and provides actionable suggestions.
She is an amazing listener! She asks questions to expand on my own reflection and feelings. She gave me so many coping strategies for my situation. Loved my time with her
Dr. Berghuis got me right away, and said things about myself I never put together, but is totally what is going on inside of me. She is great listener and does not judge my past, but instead offers up useful information on to why I have made a few of the decisions i've made.
Dr.Berghuis is so helpful with anxiety.
Deborah is attentive and patient. I would recommend her!
Deb is a very respectful, professional and insightful human being

Caring, professional- perfect!
