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.

Mrs. Laura is great. Attentive, trustworthy, and very common sense approaches. Be warned tho, she takes all the notes and follows up on them. Sets realistic goals and pushes you to obtain them!
Laura helped me work through issues from my past that were keeping me from connecting with people and were keeping my isolated and closed off. As we worked through those issues, she helped me see that there was other things that were contributing to everything and helped me move past it.
She allows me to process my thoughts and emotions in a way that helps me answer my own questions.
I’ve had quite a few therapist and Laura has been my favorite. She is very supportive and respectful and has great insight
She is empathetic and listens with compassion.
Laura, has really helped me ease my anxiety, and learning ways to cope with traumatic experience I’ve had.
Mrs. Laura is great! She is very attentive and can help you to look at problems from a different perspective. She’s helped me so much with trying to catch myself thinking a certain way and be able to redirect myself and my thoughts.
I love the fact that she is interactive and listens. I like that she asks the correct questions and that they are relateable to the issues.
Extremely kind and an amazing listener. Great insight, and lovely to talk to. Will hold you accountable, and challenges you to think deeper. She is very diligent and always remembers small details.
Very helpful
So I had a therapist right before Laura and she was nice, but I feel Laura is a better fit for me. I like that she actually listens and lets me babble until I kind of come to an epiphany on my own about why I do some of the things I do.. then she helps me take action to move forward. In our first session she asked me a lot of questions about myself and got a feel for my personality. I think that is so she is able to tailor her approach for each individual person. Highly recommend!!
