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.

So grateful for this step I am taking, for a better me and a better tomorrow. My therapist is just what I needed. She is a blessing ❤️
She is great!
Having Tammy to talk to has been an extremely positive experience this year. She listens and provides a different perspective that challenges me and makes me think about situations differently than I have before. I am so grateful to have her.
I love Tammy. I feel like she gets me and she understands my humor. She listens and is very compassionate. I don’t feel like I’m the only one going through life with my anxiety and stress. She made me laugh so much one day that I had to tell my mom.
I was assigned to Tammy as my Therapist. She is an excellent listener and helps to guide me through my life journey. I prefer the video chat because it allows her to see the real me. She is able to see if I am not feeling well based on how I look the day we meet. She provides me with homework. This helps me focus on my goals during the week so I can feel like I accomplished something.
