Dr. Davis in two sessions has been an incredible resource for me. She takes a completely unbiased view and genuinely wants to listen and hear you out. She is someone I can tell my secrets to that I cannot tell friends, family, or my partner! She’s amazing. Her best quality is that you can genuinely see she loves what she does and is passionate about helping people! I do not feel alone in my journey because she is there with me working together to help me get where I want to go! Highly recommend working with Dr. Davis. No judgements, no assumptions, no biases. Just cares about people and wants to see her clients navigate their mental health journey!

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.
