I felt very comfortable discussing my concerns with Sharon. I particularly appreciated the structure of our conversations, starting with an open space to freely share my thoughts, followed by a concise summary of the session's key takeaways. Throughout our time, I always felt understood and never once felt misinterpreted. Additionally, Sharon’s empathy and understanding of cultural contexts made me feel even more at ease. Thank you so much for the support and thoughtful guidance!

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.
