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.

I love how natural and friendly she is.
Illona is a wonderful therapist and I'm so lucky to have her. I feel like a completely different person since I started working with her.
Ilona is very versetile and flexible - we can talk about long term issues and issues that affect me randomally. When I started, I had an interest in jungian psychology and we were able to discuss that, Ilona encouraged me to deepen my understanding. I really appreciate all the help she has given me.
