Kimberly Ochester has been very helpful to me since my therapy started in December of the past year. She has gotten me to figure out different areas that I know that I needed to improve on and gave me great suggestions and support. I feel much better and happier about my current life since I started the therapy. I highly recommend her as a therapist.

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 feel much better and happier about my current life since I started the therapy. I highly recommend her as a therapist.
Kim is very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to anxiety and anxiety-related disorders. She was able to offer practical life solutions for every day anxieties that helped me tremendously. She got me to realize that my standards were not realistic (rather perfectionistic), and she walked me through how to cope with daily stress resulting from fear and fear of failure. She is also very non-judgmental and professional. I learned a lot during our time together.
