I was a bit apprehensive when it came to finding some help but Lisa has made me feel very comfortable to openly talk about how I’m feeling and has been knowledgable in areas I feel I struggle with and has suggested core elements that would be beneficial to work on. I’m making progress with Lisa and it has been great so far.

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.
