She has been so amazing as a therapist. Times I need to reschedule my appointment she’s super accommodating. She’s always giving me advice and messaging me on weeks we don’t have a session just to check in. During our sessions she listens the whole time and gives input when she feels is a good time to do so. My experience with her has been amazing so far.

Jeri has been super friendly and helpful and I love that she reaches out every Sunday with a Monday's thoughts and also just reaches out to see how I am doing and if she can help me in any way 10/10

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.
