I have only been with Sandra for a short time but I thoroughly enjoy our sessions. She is kind and compassionate and makes me feel understood and listened to and that in itself is invaluable. Sandra is helping me with things I didn't know I needed help with and I come away from each session feeling lighter. I can't thank Sandra enough and look forward to our future sessions together.

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.
