Liz is very knowledgeable and kind person. Meeting you where you are and finding ways to push you towards where you want or need to go. Our appointments may make me cry but they make me feel so much positive, my shoulders feel lighter, and just help me face my problems head on.

I feel comfortable talking about anything with Liz. I’m new to therapy and Liz makes it easy and approachable to talk about small stuff and big stuff in my life. There’s no pressure and I always feel better after our sessions. I would recommend Liz to my friends and family! Bonus, she is a person of faith, which makes me feel even more comfortable when talking about all my fears and doubts. Thanks Liz!

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.
