Recent reviews

Colin is consistently excellent in understanding me and my needs. I never imagined that counselling could be this way, and there is a level of understanding demonstrated that some of my closest family and friends struggle to achieve. Colin is an absolute lifeline to me, I couldn't recommend him more.

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.
