⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was initially hesitant about choosing Adrian as my therapist—out of three profiles I reviewed, he was actually my least favorite. I ended up picking him because he pushed me a bit out of my comfort zone, and I thought that might be what I needed. After two sessions, I can honestly say I made the right choice. Adrian has helped me learn a lot about myself in a short amount of time, and he’s shown me perspectives I wouldn’t have reached on my own. He’s professional, insightful, and definitely worth considering if you’re looking for someone who can challenge you in a productive way.

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.
