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.

Derrick helped counsel me through a tough time in life. I appreciate his efforts. I would highly recommend utilizing him as a councilor. He is knowledgeable and caring. He will help you make positive decisions.
He's thoughtful, funny, and kind. I've enjoyed my sessions with him.
Tells me the truth, doesn’t sugar coat anything. Offers advice, choices, explains things in a way I can relate and fully understand.
Derrick was the best therapist I have ever had. I am leaving this app because of cost related reasons but I wish I could keep Derrick. He gave the best advice, had a wonderful sense of humor and was so supportive and invested what I was dealing with. 10/10 recommend this therapist!
Derrick provides positive communication and he also challenges you to find additional thoughts, emotions, and information to help guide you.
He is extremely nice, and great to work with and very to the point which is wonderful.
After the very first session I had with Derrick I felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I know I have a lot of work to do, but I honestly feel like he’s the therapist to help me through it.
