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.

Haven’t been talking long but I feel very comfortable with expressing myself. I find that very scary and they makes it easier to deal with my fears. Very kind soul!
Having a very good experience with Dr. Ross. I would recommend her to my closest of friends or family.
Working with Dr. Ross has been great thus far. In previous experiences with therapists, they have been very goal and solution oriented where I came to them with a problem and they offered solutions. With Dr. Ross, she empathized with my struggles and instead of offering solutions, she focused on providing insight into the way I feel. And in a frustratingly beneficial way, her methods allowed me to reflect and come to my own conclusions. I say frustrating because it took me several sessions to understand that while I may seeking help, its ultimately up to me to be an active participant in my healing journey. Dr. Ross's methods helped me understand that as the foundation for this process and now I feel that I am making real steps and strides. Dr. Ross is kind, insightful, and actively pursues knowledge in their field to keep up to date with the latest studies on mental health and therapeutic practice. I highly recommend Dr. Ross.
I had my 1st session and felt supported. I have a hard time completely opening up, and feel that I will be able to with Dr. Ross as I continue to work with her.
Dr. Ross is extremely professional and supportive, i appreciate every session we share.
