I was in a pretty bad situation when I came to Durdana. She helped me work through my anxiety caused by some family issues. I am in a much better place because of the talks we have had over the past months. I absolutely recommend her further to anyone that is seeking help and trying to get out of a bad headspace.

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.

Durdana is an amazing therapist and she helped me navigate many issues in an oderly manner. She is kind and patient and being as intuitive as she was, always knew the right thing to say to encourage me to be a better and self assured version of myself! Very grateful ❤️
Probably the best therapist I've ever seen (at least for my own needs and therapeutic style). Really great at actively listening without judgment and responding with profound questions that help guide healthy introspection and pragmatic ideas that act as a psychological toolkit outside of sessions. Very obvious that Durdana is well-educated and experienced as a counselor/psychotherapist.
