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.

amazing lady, great listener
She is great.
Stephanie has been extremely patient with me. She had helped me understand why I am the way I am in situations and validates my emotions. That's it's okay for me to feel the way I do. I look forward to my sessions with Stephanie
Stephanie did a great job talking through my problems. She made everything much easier.
Stephanie is a wonderful counselor. She's an active listener and helps you unlock and trust your intuition. Would highly recommend!
She’s been super helpful and has given me confidence back in myself and my life
I've had incredible improvements through my counseling with Stephanie Collins, I've never felt more grateful; I began counseling with Stephanie in the New Year, it took 3 months or so for improvements to actually show - I couldn't be happier, however I'm going to have to cancel & I don't want to despite financial reasons. I'll most definitely return for a follow up, but it'll have to be sometime in the fall; Stephanie is an incredible counselor, I couldn't be happier & I don't want to stop - but I must, I hope to get Stephanie again when I return.
I have struggled for some time with counselling as I don't like burdening people with my problems. Somehow my counselor Stephanie Collins made me feel at ease straight away, and reassured me that I was not wasting her time. She thanks me for sharing details with her and is very patient when it takes me a while or I find it difficult to talk about something . Somehow I found I immediately trusted her. She is very knowledgeable and helpful and I highly highly recommend.
