More about Marsha

Hi Everyone! My name is Marsha Nan Poland Cooper, but please call me Nan. I have been a therapist for several years. I started in a clinic setting and through the clinic, I was a therapist for clients in the school system. I started my private practice five years ago and love working for myself. My BA and MAE degrees are from Western Kentucky University. I believe that clients should have an active role in their sessions. I use CBT quite a bit in therapy, and I like to give homework to clients on occasion.

About online counseling

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.

I’m amazed with the help I’ve received for only having a few sessions so far. Nan has helped me reached conclusions on my own rather than just telling me this type of help makes the progress eye opening and I really feel like I’m cared for.

Nan has been a peace maker in my life by wording things so simply in a way that makes me believe I can do anything I set my mind to. It has been inspirational to say the least. When I started betterhelp I wasn’t so sure I was going to be able to open up like I desired but looking back I have come along way even though we have only had a handful of sessions. I look forward to continuing sessions and communicating with Nan.
