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.

Wendy is great about offering other materials to help deal with my current struggles along with her own advice and analysis of what’s going on and how to move forward.

Reviewed June 2023

Wendy is a kind, compassionate, patient, wise professional who provided excellent care to me in my time of need. I’m very grateful and blessed to be in her care.

Reviewed June 2023

Wendy is one of the only therapist who actually makes me feel safe and heard. She will sometimes relay information back to me that I’ve said and I’m astonished that she remembered such small details. Not only does she listen but she also actively tries to come up with solutions for the issues you discuss. I 1,000 percent recommend her!

Reviewed February 2023

Wendy is professional, timely, and genuine. I appreciate that she can listen to my concerns and ask thought provoking questions that help me to process and understand what’s happening along with good advice. She’s really been a great help for me in my mental health journey.
