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.

Talunja has been a major support and therapeutic resource to me through COVID environments and my first pregnancy. She helped me see things in a broader light and recognized when I needed advice and surf ton and when I needed someone just to listen. Through working with Talunja, I realize how important mental health is and she has helped me through some tough situations. I always look forward to talking to Talunja about life problems and issues.
