Regina helped me with so much in a short period of time. She was non judgmental and understanding. I felt like she really cared about my progress and changing my thought process from negative to positive. She is relatable and really takes the time to listen to what her client is saying.

Regina is really great so far. I've only had one session with her but I'm already feeling differently about so many things in a positive way. She's very attentive and listens to what you're saying.

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.
