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.

Kathryn is thorough, focused, kind and excellent
Kathryn is kind, compassionate and articulate. A fantastic therapist.
Kathryn is great and very easy to talk to!
Kathryn has been an absolute gem. She listens without coddling me but still gives me the support I need. As well as she guides me in find solutions or coping mechanisms I can use to help me with my issues and overcome some of anxiety.
Kathryn is excellent, thorough and engaging. She gets to the essence of problems easily, and provides solid, actionable advice.
Talking to Kathryn has done so much good to me. She always finds a way to detect what the underlying problem might be and helps you find the right balance to approach things with a healthy attitude. Thank you!!
Katie is a wonderful person, and has helped me a lot in just this short amount of time I've been talking with her. She does not rush me, she understands what I'm writing when I have a hard time explaining, and she has given me great advice I didn't think would help but does.
Kathryn has a talent for cutting through the distractions, and getting to the heart of the matter.
Excellent! Very supporting - solution-oriented.
