Marceal "Marcy" Smith is an amazing therapist for me. She listened attentively and helped me understand more about myself than I had ever realized before. I have been able to move forward thanks to her. Marcy is the best!

Reviewed April 2023

Marcy has been fantastic to work with over the last few months. I have tried counseling through a few different modalities and counselors before, but nothing that I was comfortable maintaining long term. Marcy has been able to help me work through many concerns (family, work relationships, educational, career trajectory) in the time that we have been working together. I truly look forward to talking to Marcy during our sessions because she is honest, sincere, easy to talk to, genuinely listens, and provides attainable recommendations.

About online counseling

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
