I have seen Vanessa a few times now and although I thought years of therapy would’ve gotten me through my hard past, we are re-addressing and really digging into the roots of my struggles. I feel incredibly understood for the first time in a while and feel hopeful about overcoming obstacles my prior therapy hadn’t been able to address. She is responsive, thoughtful, and kind. Our sessions have made me really think about my world differently, and therefore the world differently, in the most constructive of ways.

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.
