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.

Erin is amazing to talk to - she listens very well and encourages me to be the best version of myself. I have made so much progress with her help!
Easy to talk to, she makes the whole thing rather comfortable.
Erin has been very helpful providing me with the tools and worksheets I needed to work on being a better person. Allotted time frames are well utilized with great back and forth communication. Erin has been able to open up my thoughts to not only my thoughts and beliefs but to also to challenge me to dig into my thoughts even deeper.
