Debbie is warm, resourceful, and very easy to work with. I hesitated getting back into therapy because sometimes you don’t know if you really click with a therapist after a few weeks and that’s costly, both financially and time wise. I’m a few months into working with Debbie, and she’s great. She listens closely, relates things I’ve said in the past in ways that really made me think after our conversations, and never makes me feel like I’m rambling on. I love that she also shares resources for me to work on my own. Thank you, Debbie!

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.
