Made me hopeful

Sep 2024

Ching Yi Kuo ("Joy") is an awesome listener, and a great counsellor. She's able to identify parts of my character that I have overlooked and welcomes me to question why I think the way I do. I do not think that anyone is able to break it down in such concise language. I like how she provides me with ideas to make me think and support that I can feel okay :)

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.

It's been only a couple sessions and I already feel more in control of myself, I highly appreciate the self-awareness that she helps me create and the help in detangling emotions. I feel listened to and validated for my concerns: I get access to support, explanations and solutions to them.

I believe it is part of God’s plan to match me with Ching Yi. Not only we speak the same language, but also we are a perfect match spiritually. She is such a good listener and always goes above and beyond to make sure my feelings were validated and my voices were heard. She has provided very personalized therapy that has guided me through the most difficult time in my life. The first session we had calmed me down and gave me a good night sleep after so many sleepless nights. I am always looking forward to our sessions. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is struggling and looking for help mentally and emotionally.
