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.

Amanda helped me understand things that I couldn’t understand myself. She paved me a way to see things in a better light and live life at its fullest. Thank you for being so amazing, Amanda. Will always be grateful for you.
Amanda has been very helpful. I have learned a lot and just need to put everything into practice. She explains things clearly. I have had therapy before but Amanda has been much more helpful than my last therapist . I’d highly recommend her
I am very happy with Amanda's approach, she really helped me very much . She gave me some good, useful suggestions. After only 4 weeks I feel a lot better and I have made real progress.
Amanda is fantastic. She’s very skilled in getting to the heart of issues and giving really valuable insights and homework. She’s super friendly and personable and easy to talk to. Right from our first session she put me at ease and was easy to open up to and always asks thoughtful questions as part of the session. I’d definitely recommend her!
She helps me feel validated when I need it, and pushes me to learn how to function without the need for validation from others.
Amanda has been instrumental in identifying some of the issues that have held me back for many years. She is patient, kind and adaptable in her approach. She is also very knowledgeable in many types of treatments for varying mental health issues. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone considering therapy.
Amanda makes me feel respected, listened to and cared about. I feel like I’ve made huge progress in my mental health thanks to her and have always felt safe in speaking about what is going on inside my head.
Experienced and very good at guiding you along the healing path.
