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.

She is amazing, she works with me and my issues and brainstorms ideas for me to overcome them. The best part is, HER IDEAS WORK! she's helped me so much the past 3 weeks it's unbelievable. She's very understanding, encouraging and uplifting. I needed therapy to help with my stress, Farnaz Teimouri is the perfect therapist for me. She's helped me with everything from image issues, to anger, to making me feel like my life isn't all so bad. She remembers, understands, and communicates perfectly. Anything I talk about she makes sure she understands it and will remember it for next session. She's amazing, I'm not much of a hugger, but I would love to give this amazing person a huge hug. :) 10000000/10

Honestly I was terrified to start therapy. My family is Italian catholic and we don’t tell our thoughts or feelings about anything to anyone but a priest. However I don’t identify as catholic. Although I have been through a lot of trauma since childhood I’ve never been able to talk about it to anyone because I was taught therapy was evil. However Farnaz from the beginning made me feel safe and comfortable and heard and most importantly understood. I did a lot of bad things in my life so far and I have never once felt judged by Farnaz. She makes me feel comfortable to talk about anything and everything. Which is also very new for this pathological lier. I have only been working with Farnaz for a couple weeks but they have turned my life and me around even though we haven’t even worked on most of my issues. I just feel optimistic and positive that I am capable of getting through it and I am not alone and that’s because of how safe and comfortable and understood I feel from Farnaz. I especially like it when she explains something to me that makes sense of why I do what I do and how to stop. This gives me hope. I also love the journals because I can share whatever’s on my mind and Farnaz then gives me clarity on it or advice on it and it’s really appreciated because it feels like I am in therapy everyday. I don’t think that once a week typical therapy would have worked for me because the therapist would have felt like a stranger and I don’t feel comfortable talking honestly to strangers. Farnaz is kind, smart, understanding with a warm and gentle voice and demeanor and I highly recommend her! I mean she’s my only therapist ever but I still truly think she’s the best.
