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.

Great listener! Very attentive and honest!
Dr Acosta gas been great.
She communicates with me whenever one session is running behind. She also listens so well to me and offers great help. Sometimes she’ll bring up stuff i said and I’m surprised she remembers it. She’s helping me go through one of the hardest times in my life, without her I’d be lost.
