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.

She does a great job at listing to your concerns and making you feel validated. She great at making you focus on your needs and wants and helping you achieve your goals.
Allison has been so kind and helpful- she is a great listener and gives me space to express my emotions. She also provides really good insight and asks great questions to help me work through my thoughts and feelings and get to the bottom of why I am struggling with certain things. She is also really great at providing tangible tips and action items to help me on a day to day basis and the therapy homework I get is realistic and achievable while still being useful. I’m excited to keep working with Allison :)
She was great!
