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.

Cathy has been fantastic. I appreciate all she has shared with me and the guidelines have helped me more than I can say.
I’ve had I think three sessions with Catherine and I think she’s great. She truly has a interest in me and my life. Some past therapist forget what’s going on. Not her. And she offers many ways to be connected.
Catherine has been a huge help. I can tell she wants to understand my concerns so that she can help me through them.
