My experience with Teri Perkins has been nothing but the best. We have only had 1 video session and I've had to cancel a couple but her communication and experience is unmatched. She shared great information with me after our first session and really took the time to listen and provide honest solutions. The way she was able to provide neutral perspectives to what I'm dealing with was surprising and comforting. I would recommend Teri Perkins to anyone interested in finding a great professional therapist.

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.

My therapist is unbiased and has helped me see what I need to work on
This was my first time participating in therapy, but Teri was very easy to talk to and was an excellent listener. She was not only able to equip me with tools to counter my anxiety, but she was also able to pair it with scriptures to help aid in my healing journey. I highly recommend Teri!!!
Teri Theresa Perkins was kind and thoughtful in helping me deal with my stressful situation and anxiety, she helped me balance my emotions and focus on my roles and tasks, while stopping injecting my opinions into how others should perform. She also gave me the Relaxation Techniques that helped to rebalance myself. She has been patient, thoughtful, helpful, kind and professional. I really appreciate her!
Teri is a wonderful listener and really knows how to pull the deep stuff out. I think most of us who seek therapy have trouble having those tough conversations in general. Teri made that much easier, she's not only a professional, she's a natural!
