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.

She makes it easy to talk to and she helps me see things I couldn’t see myself or helps me understand why I feel the way I do. She is amazing.

Reviewed August 2024

Sonya is so great! She is an excellent listener, and validates my experiences while also helping me to recognize how my own emotions can play a part in them. She is very understanding, and it feels less like a therapy session, and more like talking with a friend. Our sessions have been eye-opening and extremely beneficial, and I highly recommend her to anyone searching for a relaxed and comfortable setting,

Reviewed July 2023

I’ve only had a few sessions with Soya but she is amazing! I feel truly comfortable with her and know that she hears what I’m saying (and even maybe what I don’t realize I’m saying).
