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.

Phillip is thoughtful, reflective, and respectful. He has helped me immensely with work-related stress and learning how to balance with family and personal time.

Reviewed January 2024

The thing that I appreciated the most was that he was able to bring humor in some serious situations that light me up in a very good and needed way. He felt like a good friend that always knows what to say and knows to ask the right questions to help you bring yourself to an understanding of your feelings and thoughts. I appreciate how understanding and flexible he was with my situation, I’m a mom of a toddler and a baby and I need as much patience as possible. Warmth and light are feelings I would associate Phillip with. I would definitely recommend him as your therapist.
