Ms. Ngwa is phenomenal. She is very patient with me as I navigate life and all that it brings. Her input has been priceless as I heal.

To say that Viviane has helped me out would be an understatement. I was in a very rough spot before I started working with her and her empathetic approach and caring nature has helped me in spades. She’ll respond no matter what the hour or day and is always flexible to changing circumstances and is willing to hear and help out no matter what the situation. She is truly a life saver and someone who I will always have a tremendous amount of respect and appreciation for.

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.
