Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Wonderful listener. So grateful to have found Dr. Klee.
Dr. Klee is fantastic. I really appreciate her and her sessions. She listens and properly advises, but she is also straight to the point. She doesn’t tell you what you want to hear. I enjoy my sessions, and even though it is hard to get feedback that you don’t want.. it helps build you. Thank you!
She’s fantastic. Really made me feel validated and heard in just a couple sessions, gave me some “homework” that is relevant to my goals. She’s obviously super experienced, 10/10 would recommend
