Lucia has been very supportive and open. She fully listens to my concerns and adapts her approach accordingly. She speaks in a reassuring and encouraging manner that makes me feel relaxed, calm and respected. I'm happy with the pace of my sessions. She has helped me recognise the resources I have to cope with stress, anxiety and depression. She is resourceful and knowledgeable in how the brain-body functions and how it affects people.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
