I have been in therapy for the better part of two decades. I have seen counselors, psychiatrists, in patient treatment with teams of professionals and out patient treatment with the same. Talking to Colin is the first time I feel heard. It's the first time I feel someone making a genuine effort to understand and help me work through complex issues. He's fair and understanding whilst holding me accountable without telling me what to do or what to think. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have found him. I cannot recommend him enough.

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.
