Amanda listens and provides specific ways in which I can respond to difficult situations. I never feel rushed or that she is distracted. I always have her full attention. I didn't know what to expect because I've never been in counseling before but am very happy with the experience. It has really helped me resolve conflict and improve my relationship with my wife.

Amanda makes me feel comfortable and at ease; she also makes me feel seen and heard. I appreciate how she relates to me and how relaxed our sessions are...I'm glad we were matched!

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.
