I’m grateful to have Holly in my corner. She genuinely cares about helping me be a better version of myself and she challenges my way of thinking when I get in my own way. She's my biggest advocate and puts up the bumpers so I stay in a (relatively) straight line towards my goals. Holly is also extremely empathetic which is so nice when the going gets tough but the glass is always half full with her - we’re solution oriented.

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.
