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.

My first positive out of many experiences with therapy! Susan has been an outstanding advocate for both my mental and physical health. She has been invested in my well-being and dedicated to my personalized growth since day one. We've been able to work at my own pace and is fantastic with schedule flexibility! I'm sad to have to move out of range soon but so excited for whoever finds her next.
