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.

Overall rating:
Jessica is the greatest.
Jessica is kind, patient, responsive and caring. She makes me feel heard and understood. She’s really helping me grow and heal in way I’m comfortable with.
This is the first therapist I felt was really interested in helping me through my issues. I’ve seen counselors before and wasn’t stoked about doing “video therapy”, but so far this has been great and I highly recommend Jessica.
