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 love Ms Nita, she’s a great listener and she advises how to best deal with my concerns. That I haven’t experienced that with any other therapist..I love her so far
Ms. Scott is an answered prayer for me! I had a therapist prior and I had to switch and was so afraid that I would come across someone else that wasn’t a good fit. Then I matched with Ms. Scott and she just gets it! She understands and she gives me strategies that I take with me throughout my day to day to help me. She actively listens to me and gives me questions to make me think. I’m so thankful for her and her sessions. I also love the fact that she had session times that correlate with my schedule it’s amazing.
Nita is the best therapist! I am new to this type of thing and she was so patient and understanding. She made me feel like she was a best friend that I could tell all my problems and worries to, yet give me professional and sincere advice and feedback. I love Mrs. Scott like she is my second mother ! 10/10 I do recommend.
Amazing person
I appreciate Ms. Scott and her ability to listen and provide direction along with exercises to use that ACTUALLY are effective when implemented. The conversations provide comfort and aid in relieving the stresses in life occurring at the time. Ms. Scott has helped with identifying self-awareness and creating a better me. Very grateful that she was suggested, and I thank you Ms. Scott.
