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.

I’ve never been able to open up about myself to anyone.. never felt comfortable to disclose my darkest secrets and pain.. Bushra gave me a feeling I’ve never felt before.. her compassion and empathy is undeniable. Not once has she made me feel judged or ashamed. She makes me feel accepted and has helped me lift an immense load off my shoulders. She is truly a blessing from above and I’m so grateful to have met her.
