After not having the best experiences with my two prior assigned therapists, Joanne made me feel seen and heard in the first seconds. So much so that I got emotional. I can honestly not recommend her enough. Shes the best thing that happened to me last year and I’m so very grateful that I found her. She’s very attentive and treats me with so much respect and care. She was the perfect fit. She never judges me and listens to everything I say and tries to go deeper but always with care and caution. She always makes sure to have me understand that our time together is my time and that we talk about what I want to talk about. What is on my mind. And even if I wanted to sit in silence, she’d sit with me through it. I really appreciate Joanne and wouldn’t have it any other way. I love her calming and soft nature and feel very welcome. She’s an angel. :)

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.
