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.

Great listener..great feedback
I love Dr. Anders. He has changed my life for the better.
Dr.Anders is very knowledgeable , he makes things very easy to understand, straight to the point, very attentive, problem solver, he gave me tools that worked very well for me which lead to my husband and I being closer together then ever before. Great to finally learn how to better communicate because it works not just with your spouse but with your kids , coworkers and just everyday life. This is life changer for sure.

Dr. Anders balances experience with humility with sage advice. Talks with you not to you. Highly recommended.
Excellent therapist. I was a bit suspicious of his approach at first, but it really helped me. I'm amazed at the changes I saw in myself and I felt like each session was a class that taught me both how to communicate and how to regulate my own emotions.
