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.

Heather has been extremely crucial in my stress management during some MAJOR life changes I have gone through. Just having her here as a neutral party that provides resources and thought paths I hadn't thought of has been extremely helpful.

She's super helpful in trying to understand my childhood trauma, and helping me fix my current issues from my childhood

Reviewed January 2023

After her first message to me my mind was set free of some of the pain, guilt and regret I had regarding a failed relationship. She definitely put some perspective on my feelings and I cannot thank her enough as we delve deeper into understanding my relationship goals. Recommend her with zero hesitation.
