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 have been working with Carla for a few weeks now and she is amazing. She is super attentive, supportive, and empathetic. She replies to messages in a timely fashion and offers great advice and resources. It's obvious that she pays attention to what I am sharing and responding based on my unique circumstances and not just regurgitating stock responses. Working with her has helped me gain valuable insight and reduce my distress for sure. I highly recommend Carla.
