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.

I look forward to my session with Summer. She has helped me with my issues. Highly recommend her
She is easy to talk to. I feel very comfortable with her.
Summer has helped me understand things more clearly and has helped me grow from my past experiences in just THREE sessions. She is a great listener who is genuine and just wants to help. She gives me homework and the resources to read up on to better understand my feelings and actions. Finding a good therapist can be tiring, but I’m so grateful that Summer and I fit so well. Finding a therapist that’s as considerate and educated as Summer on the first try, is a home run! ☺️
After just two session I am finding much benefit working with Summer
She is very compassionate and has numerous tools to recommend. She is very easy to talk with.
