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.

Doctor Frank is a great listener!
It’s been a few years now and I’m very satisfied with Dr. Gorritz
Dr. Gorritz offers a compassionate, comfortable and safe space to share everything that you are experiencing in your life. Opening up to someone is very difficult but Dr. Gorritz was patient, and very supportive.
Frank feels like a friend more than a therapist at times. He helps you out in ways that you don't realize until after you have worked with him for a while. He is compassionate and just a wonderful human being. 10/10
Dr. Gorritz is amazing and supportive and I love our sessions.
Dr. G is the best. In each session I feel heard, seen, validated, and appropriately challenged. The range of expertise Dr. G holds is comprehensive. That was important to me, as I have LGBTQIA+ needs, religious trauma, ADHD, grief, work stress, and addiction awareness concerns. Dr. G can do it all. I have tried several therapists in the past and struggled to connect, but I finally found the right one with him. He doesn’t judge any of my beliefs, yet also isn’t afraid to challenge my stances. It’s exactly what I wanted and needed in a counselor.
He is always there for me when I need it, even if it’s not our usual time. His experiences and empathy make him feel very real and he doesn’t kid around with the usual scripted lines you hear TV/movie therapists say. He’ll tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear.
Very concerned for his patients and checks on them
Amazing therapist who is always there for me when I need him.
Love that Dr.Gorritz keeps up with me. You can tell he really cares!!
Dr. G is patient and kind. I feel like he's a good friend rather than a therapist.
Dr. Gorritz has essentially saved my life. He's gotten me through the hardest situation I've ever been in. I'm eternally grateful. I'd recommend him to anyone and look forward to continued development.
Dr. Gorritz is a great therapist so far. I have had only 2 sessions with him and he has been the most empathetic and accepting person I have met. He knows when the mood does not have to be so glum while also being respectful towards my viewpoint.
Dr. Gorritz was very easy to connect with and was a great listener! I am very excited to begin this journey with him!
Dr. Gorritz is doing a great job!
Dr. Gorritz is a friendly face and always encouraging to both me and my partner during our sessions. He poses questions and allows conversation to play out naturally.
He genuinely cares about me and he actively listens to me.
Dr Gorrtiz is amazing! He is very caring and very empathetic. Love him!!
One of the best therapists I’ve had. Easy to talk to, knowledgeable, inclusive, empathic and supportive among many other things.
