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.

Cheri has been the perfect fit for me at this time in life. She has sent me resources like worksheets and encouraged the journaling aspect of the better help platform. She helps me identify priorities in a session and acknowledge patterns and keeps me accountable. Best of all she is helping me find new ways to cope and communicate and heal.
