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.

Irina is so kind, fair and supportive. I gained some new tools and understanding about others. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I now feel I am more resistant stronger and more kinder to myself.
I have never had therapy before, but realised that I needed to work through some family things. Irina totally got my issues within the first session. Irina is guiding me through therapy, and I am understanding, without realising it, how it works. Irina has just clicked for me. She is an expert on the intricacies of family dynamics and their effects and I am so grateful to her and Betterhelp for making it easy for me to take the first step.
My first session was great. Irena is friendly approachable and caring.
Understanding, excellent listening skills. Easy to talk to , non judgemental experienced therapist.
Irina has really helped me to process the things going on in my life over the last few moths. She has been able to explain, validate and support me through a tricky time and I am very grateful for her expertise and calm nature.
Although I’ve only had a couple sessions, I felt immediately supported and validated.
Have had only one session but found her supportive
