Sean has been very understanding, relatable, accommodating, insightful, and much more the whole time I’ve been working with him. His unwavering support especially has always meant a lot. He’s helped me with a wide range of issues and subjects and helped me grow more into the person I’ve been wanting to be than I used to believe I could. I really, truly value his wisdom, experience, and encouragement; and I definitely want to continue to work with him.

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.

Sean is the most thoughtful and caring therapist I’ve interacted with before. He is very direct, and is able to help me identify actionable steps to improve my mental health through shared decision making. I look forward to our appointments, and he has helped me get to know myself in ways I didn’t know were possible.
