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.

Overall rating:
Carly is kind but honest, patient but straightforward. She has the perfect balance to make you feel at ease in her sessions. I'm very grateful to have matched with her and I look forward to digging deeper into my mind together!
After my second session I can say that she is a wonderful therapist that gives you the space you need to find yourself.
Carly is a careful listener. She is very intuitive and is able to point to the underlying issues of what is being expressed. Her style is very open minded and relaxed, she is non-judgmental and makes the most of every minute in the session. In my sessions I’m looking for a place to speak and be heard, for confession and exploration of challenging subjects. Carly is able to facilitate this to meet my personal requirements.
This is my first time having therapy and I am glad to have met Carly. She listens to me, guides me and never judges me. I am truly grateful to have Carly as my therapist.
