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.

very professional and understanding
The best Therapist experience I've had to date. Every session is a step forward. We get to the root of things, but also identify a practical step that can be taken to move forward in a sustainable way.
I’ve been skeptical about therapy for a long time but Brandon is a great therapist and changed my mind completely. I appreciate how logical and honest as well as caring and emotional he is. I’ve been able to work through a lot with him.
Brandon has been a great listener. He has been providing the advice right to the point. He is calm and objective. I trust his judgement.
Listens well, gives good advice and suggestions on my situation.
I’ve been working with Brandon for about 2.5 months so far & he’s been really helpful. This is also my first ever therapy experience. I’m pretty introspective so I wasn’t sure what I would gain from therapy, but Brandon has been key in helping me get from seeing & analyzing an issue to shifting my thoughts & behaviors to have a real impact on my daily lived experience. He also is good at seeing things & making connections I had missed. He is compassionate yet straightforward and I really appreciate his support.
Very good listener, provides excellent feedback and is very supportive to my recovery.
I went into therapy very skeptical. Brandon has shown me why it's helpful and important. I've been able to make smarter decisions, and obtain a sense of clarity I have not had in years.
He helped through things I've struggled with for over 20 years, he's a healer and a life saver.
Brandon has an open minded and logistical approach to his clients. He is friendly, determined, and comfortable to be around.
I really appreciate Brandon’s ability to listen to my concerns but also to challenge my thinking and help me understand my emotions. He also helps me to learn and come to understanding on my own rather than just lecturing me. My sessions have been instrumental in working through grief, depression and understanding my lack of self love. I am in a much better place mentally because of the work Brandon has been doing with me.
Very good first session filled with very practical feedback and understanding of my concerns.
Mr. Brandon continues to work closely with me to walk a balanced path. Since starting our work together I’ve grown as a person & altered my perception.
Had my first session- Extremely good listener. Poured my heart out about so many issues and felt like I was met with different perspectives that helped me make sense of traumas I have experienced in a way I’ve Never thought of them before or found on any Google search. Felt safe, not judged and in the hands of an expert. He made it so easy to discuss something that I’d been too ashamed to disclose for years. Highly recommend him and look forward to future sessions
I’ve had a few sessions with Brandon so far. He is kind, attentive, and really makes the sessions a safe space. He always checks in through the week and it’s comforting to have that kind of care. I’m excited to continue my therapy journey with Brandon. I have full confidence that we are going to tackle and overcome what is needed while building strong mental health for whatever the future brings!
Very helpful,I am pleased i took this step.
As I’ve said, hits the nail on the head. He has given me tips that have already improved my life and it’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Very good listener and makes me feel comfortable
