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.

I've had two sessions with Tiara and she is AMAZING. In our first session she had called me out on something, which made me think and I cannot be more grateful for her doing so, because that's exactly what I need in order to build myself up, it is seriously so appreciated and I look forward to every future session I'll have with Tiara.
