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.

Taz has been a great help for me. I was struggling with a lot of anxiety and stress, while I could not really identify the underlying cause. Within 2 sessions, she identified that I might have ADHD, something I did not know much about and had never considered as a cause for my issues. I have since been formally diagnosed and can now focus on how I can manage some of my ADHD symptoms. I have had therapy before, and Taz is the first person to pick up that my symptoms could be caused by ADHD. That is life-changing for me.

Taz has been amazing supporting me over the past few months. She has been such a good ear when I felt as though I had nobody to listen. Taz is very easy to talk to but doesn’t push when things feel to difficult. I would recommend her to anyone looking to start therapy!

I could not recommend Taz more, she helped me so much and is an exceptional therapist. She is kind and compassionate. If you need someone understanding and free of judgement she is the person to reach out to. I have nothing negative to say about my experience with her! Thank you so much Taz!

I cant believe the deep understanding that my therapist has when I talk to her. I can confidently say that she is probably the only person on earth that truly gets me and whose validation of whats going inside my head actually matters. She is amazing as she helped me come a long way and discover myself, setting clear boundaries and desl with trauma. I couldn’t possibly have been matched with a better therapist for what I am experiencing. Thank you Taz!

She is the most empathic and kind person ever. She respects boundries as a therapist which provides a lot of confidence in her expertise.
