Recent reviews
Therapy with Connie has really changed my life. She has got to know all my issues and has really helped me put things into perspective. She comments on my journals and (yes I know it’s her job) I can tell that she has read them and thought about what I’ve mentioned during the week.

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.

Excellent therapist.
Therapy with Connie has really changed my life. She has got to know all my issues and has really helped me put things into perspective. She comments on my journals and (yes I know it’s her job) I can tell that she has read them and thought about what I’ve mentioned during the week.
Connie has a knack of getting me to open up about other issues whilst dealing with others! Would highly recommend
Connie has really taken the time to get to know me and has done research into something I needed help with. I feel genuinely cared about and heard, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
Connie is amazing. She’s helped me feel a lot more confident in myself and my goals. I feel really comfortable in sharing my issues with her as she is really warm and welcoming. She has helped me overcome many issues related to over thinking, self confidence, past relationships and social habits. It is my first time trying out therapy and I would highly recommend Connie <3 x
Nearing a month into sessions with Connie and already making great progress thanks to her expertise and support resulting in me reaping the rewards of her work in the everyday. Would highly recommend anyone use Connie!
10/10
