She's so amazing!

Reviewed November 2024

I have had a lot of therapists in my life. What stands out to me about working with Dr. Dara is that she’s an extremely compassionate listener and pays very close attention to how I am doing even during session. She makes me feel heard and validated. These are all things I have really needed. I’m very fortunate to have Dr. Dara as my therapist.

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.
