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 really enjoy the work Derick does with me, and the added benefits, when I told him I really like the idea of getting homework to work on, he gives me really helpful worksheets and ideas to follow, and I really appreciate his dedication to helping me in my efforts to change. I've improved so much since I met him, and I've made it known to all my friends just how helpful him and this app can be.
