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.

Daven is an amazing help with my needs and mental health. Definitely a great specialist!
For someone who has never met me, I can tell that Daven genuinely cares about me. He goes above and beyond what you would think are the normal responsibilities of a therapist. He adapts his sessions to his patients and they all feel very personal and not like some generic script. He knows what areas to push and when not to push too hard. He’s very good with understanding anxiety, relationships, and trauma. Daven has helped me find my true self and the man I want to be. I am forever grateful that this app brought me to him.
He is a good therapist and always there to help. Also he listens and understands your issues
