I had the privilege to have a sessions with Alison and she has helped me to discover all the hidden things that were/ are holding me back and brought them to light. She is really a very compassionate therapist which makes you very comfortable in sharing things which in turn helps in unraveling the solutions to the problem. I would highly recommend her!

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.

There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
