Esana has been a great support to me over the past few months. She has been very professional and easy to talk to. She has helped me gain more confidence in myself and also be more reflective on how I go about different situations in life. We were also able to connect on a faith aspect which was important to me. I would definitely recommend Esana for those looking for a boost in self-esteem and confidence.

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.

Esana helped me overcome my work-related anxiety. She gave me the tools that I still use to this day in moments where I feel I slip back into my old ways. I am so grateful for her compassion, empathy and I truly felt she listened to me. I would highly recommend her!

I always look forwards to my therapy sessions! Esana has been amazing through this process of healing and building confidence in myself and abilities. Being both therapist and advisor to me, Esana has been extremely patient and very attentive, respectful and friendly with her approach during sessions, in a way that is comfortable, like speaking to an older sister. At times when my work schedule has been hectic and booking sessions in advance has been difficult, Esana has been flexible and slotted me in for a session even with short notice (very much appreciated!). She is great at assessing how to best approach and steer sessions in response to a decided topic, talking through emotions of that moment, thoughts, events, concerns and changes as well as checking in on trigger points from past sessions. As well as that, Esana is very knowledgeable and suggests good resources for further reading and ideas for practices and exercises that could be done outside of sessions to compliment the things targeted and discussed during therapy. This has lead me to feel able and fully equipped to be accountable for my own growth with methods to manage my emotions and overcome struggles. It has been so enriching and empowering having Esana as my therapist, and her guidance has been indispensable in helping me understand myself better and become more comfortable and confident in my own skin. Thank you Esana :)!
