I’m fortunate to have met such a caring person, who also can tell me straight about what she’s seeing/observing based on my input. It helps to know someone can listen closely and provide feedback in the form of questions I can noodle on.

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.

Dr. Jimenez is a great listener! As such, she's a great fit for my needs... I'm a chatterbox.
I’m fortunate to have met such a caring person, who also can tell me straight about what she’s seeing/observing based on my input. It helps to know someone can listen closely and provide feedback in the form of questions I can noodle on.
Dr. Jimenez is a friendly, thoughtful mental help expert. I appreciate her kindness and the tools she offers to help outside of the therapy sessions.
Usually I give up on therapy, or quickly feel unheard. Dr Jimenez really has made me feel, heard, supported, and cares for. She makes me look forward to my weekly sessions, like I never have before. I'm so glad to finally have found a therapist I think works for me!
Dr. Jimenez is a very good listener. I can tell that she cares. We've spoken once, and I look forward to speaking with her again.
Dr. Jimenez is caring and understanding. She listens and asks clarifying questions to ensure she understands what I am saying. She asks if I want advice or to just have someone listen which I appreciate as sometimes it feels better to just talk it out.
Dr. Jimenez is a great listener. She has a calm and kind presence. She can encourage and confront. It’s nice to meet with a person who has a wealth of experience to draw upon.
Working with Dr. Jimenez has been very helpful. I think her compassion and pragmatic approach has been invaluable to help diffuse some heightened emotions from life’s circumstances for me. I’m also grateful for our conversations leading to other strategies I can use to help me navigate anxious moments.
I just really started seeing Dr. Jimenez, but she’s kind, listens to you and offers great advice, I really enjoy my sessions with her.
I am very happy with the sessions so far and feel like I’m making progress towards healing
Working with Dr. Jimenez has been such an integral part to my healing journey! She is such a kind and compassionate human being with an ability to help others see things from a new lens/perspective. She always responds to my very long messages and helps me talk it out even when we don’t have a session scheduled. I can honestly say she is the only therapist I’ve had who challenges me to move forward and heal areas of my life with a gentleness, kindness and compassion. Highly recommend working with her even if it’s on a short term basis!
She is beyond fantastic! She listens, she connects, she values, and it is very clear to me that she is interested in caring for me as a person, not as a patient. She sees me as a human, she sees me as an individual. She is kind, compassionate, caring, and is someone I can trust with my vulnerable side. She has my many thanks!
